A miniature model of Bangkok was unveiled at a fair in Thailand.
The display was showcased as part of the BKK Expo 2024 exhibit held at the Benjakitti Forest Park Museum in Bangkok from June 20 to 23.
The event aimed to showcase the history and development of Thailand's capital into a well-rounded city.
The exhibit was divided into four main zones, including a mixed-media art experience, a showcase of the Bangkok Metropolitan Authority's policies over the years, an interactive city model with touch screens, and a gaming area with touch-screen video games to entertain visitors.
This year's model, which measures measures 10.4 by 13.8 metres, added 20 new buildings across 20 districts compared to last year's.
Over its 15-year existence, the model has undergone gradual improvements by the BMA in 2016, 2020, and 2024.
The updated model now allows public and private sectors to install models of their own buildings within it.
The Bangkok City Model Exhibition is open from 9 am to 9 pm. Visitors can reserve their slots, while up to 800 walk-in guests can be accommodated.
