Mahanakhon SkyWalk
In short
Mahanakhon SkyWalk is Thailand's highest viewing deck, a glass floor 310 metres above Silom, best an hour before sunset.
The scorecard
The SkyWalk in five lines
Top marks for height and the glass floor, lower on price.
- The view
- Thailand's highest observation deck, 360 degrees over Bangkok.
- The thrill
- a 63-square-metre glass floor, 310 metres above the street.
- The price
- pricier than a rooftop drink, and worth it at sunset.
- The timing
- open until midnight, so it works before dinner or late.
- For groups
- one ticket counter, one lift, and the evening in Silom right below.
The SkyWalk is the best way to start an evening in Bangkok: the whole city at sunset from the highest deck in Thailand, then dinner and the clubs a short drive away. Take the 3:30pm-to-7pm ticket, go up an hour before sunset, walk the glass floor while it's light, and stay for the lights.

What a ticket costs
The Mahanakhon SkyWalk price is ฿1,000 for adults from 10am to 3:30pm and ฿1,200 from 3:30pm to 7pm, and children aged 8 to 12 and seniors over 60 pay half, the SkyWalk's own ticket page says.

Every ticket covers the indoor deck on the 74th floor and the outdoor deck and glass floor on the 78th. The official page doesn't list a price after 7pm, so check the evening price when you book. Resellers sell the same entry, often bundled with photos or other attractions in the building, and prices vary, so compare with the official price before you buy.
Is it worth it?
At sunset, yes. You watch Bangkok go from daylight to a city of lights from the highest deck in Thailand, and the glass floor is a proper thrill.
King Power Mahanakhon calls it Thailand's highest 360-degree observation deck, 314 metres up, with a 63-square-metre glass tray 310 metres above the ground.
Just want a drink with a view? A rooftop bar costs the price of a cocktail; see the best rooftop bars in Bangkok, or the view from Sky Bar.
For the full height and the glass floor, the Mahanakhon SkyWalk is the one. Ask Tanner to fit it into your first evening.
What to wear
There's no dress code on the decks. Shoe covers are a must on the glass tray, and high heels aren't allowed on it. Loose scarves and hats stay off the rooftop.
Most groups go on to dinner after, so dress for the evening. Ask Tanner where the table is booked.
- daily 10am to midnight; last entry 11pm
- 314 metres; glass floor at 310 metres
- ฿1,000 by day, ฿1,200 from 3:30pm
- King Power Mahanakhon, Silom, Bangkok
- Chong Nonsi
How long you need
There's no time limit once you're up, so give it at least an hour, longer at sunset.
Start on the open-air 78th floor and the glass tray, then the indoor deck on the 74th. Ask Tanner to hold dinner for an hour after sunset.
When to go
About an hour before sunset, on the 3:30pm-to-7pm ticket. You get the city by day, the sunset and the lights coming on.
For a late view, it's open until midnight, with last entry at 11pm. In July to October, cloud can cut the view, so keep a second evening free.
Ask Tanner to time your tickets for the sunset.

Getting there
The SkyWalk is in King Power Mahanakhon in Silom, right by Chong Nonsi BTS.
The video-themed lifts reach the 74th floor in less than 50 seconds. Silom's bars and restaurants are a short walk or drive away, so it's an easy first stop, with Patpong close by. Ask Tanner to have the car waiting downstairs.
What the group spends
The Mahanakhon SkyWalk price for eight adults on the sunset ticket is ฿9,600 in all, at the SkyWalk's own rates. That's the whole thrill: the lifts, both decks and the glass floor.
Tanner's pick: the 3:30pm-to-7pm ticket, up an hour before sunset, then dinner in Silom.
Ask Tanner to book the group's sunset slot.
Your sunset, planned
Sunset tickets for the whole group and the glass floor before dark. Then dinner, and the clubs.
Your car waits downstairs.
We get you in after: the host, the car, the door and the VIP table at the club. See our Bangkok nightlife guide.
