MahaNakhon, the newest addition to Bangkok’s skyline, takes the title of Thailand’s tallest building, and hosted a light show to celebrate its completion.

The skyscraper in Chong Nonsi rises at an astonishing 314m into Thailand’s sky and has 77 floors, exceeding Baiyok II Tower, Thailand’s former tallest building by 10m.

Designed to complement the Thai landscape, MahaNakhon boasts the eccentric appearance of a glass-curtain wall made up of a unique pixelated façade, with a cuboid-surfaced twisted rip in the side of the building.

The PACE Development-owned skyscraper brands itself as having the ultimate luxury design. Inside, the structure houses a hotel as well as numerous retail businesses, bars, restaurants, and the Ritz-Carlton Residences condominium. One of MahaNakhon’s key features is that it hosts distinguished restaurants Morimoto a Japanese-fusion fine dining spot, owned by Iron Chef America’s Masaharu and one of the first Morimoto restaurants in Southeast Asia – and L’Atelier de Joel Robuchon (Bangkok) – Thailand’s first L’Atelier from the renowned French chef and restaurateur.
