Bang Pakok Cinema is located on the west bank of Chao Phraya River just to the south of central Bangkok. It has the exact same design as Dao Siam Theater in nearby Sathon only the metal shades are painted an eye-catching shade of baby blue. Not much is written about it online but it’s reasonable to assume it was built in the 1970s. Nowadays parts of it are still in use but locals did not welcome a closer inspection when I visited in 2018.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
