In real life, in fact, no matter which country you are in, you can find unfinished skyscrapers, but very few are regarded as ghost buildings. The skyscraper I’m talking about today is an exception. The name of this building is Sathorn Unique Tower. It is an unfinished skyscraper in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand. This building was originally planned to be built as a high-rise apartment building. Yes, but during the 1997 Asian financial crisis fell into a shutdown. At that time, 80% of the building had been completed, but it was still abandoned due to economic problems. At that time, the Bangkok real estate market collapsed, and the financial company that provided funds for the building went bankrupt. That's why it has fallen into a state of incompleteness. Some people may say that 80% of the building has been completed. It seems that it is also a good choice to spend some money to continue the construction and let this building play its own uses again! Then why the building has not been completed for 23 years? From the data point of view, it can be roughly divided into two reasons. On the one hand,
is because the main structure of the building is considered safe, but when the construction is stopped. The internal infrastructure work has just begun, and the walls and structural details are the same, especially the details of the high-rise buildings are still incomplete, so it takes a lot of money and energy to repair on this basis. On the other hand, because in the nearby community, the surrounding residents have a prejudice against the building, because some people think that the building was built on a previous cemetery, so many people feel that the building is located. It's unlucky, so it's unfinished.
even for this reason, many locals regard this building as a ghost building. The main reason is that this building is actually related to the terror factor, because in 2014, when explorers were exploring the interior of the building, they found the body of a Swedish man on the 43rd floor. Although the police later identified it as suicide, it still felt a bit creepy. Some rumors about this building spread, and even in 2017, this building was officially allowed to be the location of a horror film in Thailand, which felt a bit self-defeating.
Some people may think that this building has been defined as a ghost building by the surrounding residents, so no one would want to visit this building. But this is not the case. Since the shutdown of this 49-story building, it has been used as a city exploration destination by some explorers who like to explore. There are even many foreign tourists who come to Thailand from abroad to explore this ghost building. Although the building is actually forbidden from public entry, it is said that you can get in directly with some of the security guards in the building.
Over the years, many people have entered the building to explore the interior. There are also some Internet celebrity clubs that broadcast live here, treating it as a place like an Internet celebrity attraction, and even more than 100 people enter the building on weekends. From a certain point of view, although this building is not completed, it has now become a destination for urban explorers and it can be regarded as a part of its use. As for whether this building can continue to use the waste heat in the future, we do not know what the future situation will be.
Only know that if you want to travel to Bangkok now, you can actually consider taking a look at this building, after all, the height of the building is 185 meters. Although dilapidated, it is full of mystery. Don't know if you haveDare to visit?
