This pixelated tower is sleek, elegant and exceptionally interesting. Completed by Büro Ole Scheeren, the structure features a glass-floored observation deck that will surely have visitors excited. The building is 77-storeys and 314 meters high. It has been recorded to be the second tallest building in Thailand. Appropriately dubbed 'MahaNakhon' — which translates to 'Great Metropolis,' the structure is a testimony to rapid urban development.
The observation deck definitely adds an agreeable feature to the pixelated tower. It offers 360-degree views across the city, given visitors access to a beautifully arranged urban layout. The glass deck is about 4.5 by 17.5 meters large and gives the public a breathtaking view that is observed from more than 300 meters high.
