I had heard about this plane graveyard through some people that have blogged about this place on various abandoned websites on the internet as a place of interest in Bangkok and a must see if you into to seeing abandon stuff , this plane graveyard was on that list and i also remember 
doing a blog on this not so long ago , so this gave me more motivation to go find this place as i was going to be in Bangkok this month it was a perfect opportunity to get myself out there. I noticed looking at some of the websites and photos of these planes they had graffiti on them so it would be perfect for this weeks theme but not only for that reason i was also very interested in seeing this plane graveyard myself.

It was not a easy place to find but it was mostly because direction in Bangkok are so confusing , when a Thai person tells you to go left he really means right but anyway with a bit of persistence after a short train ride to the city a short walk to the Bangkok canal i then jumped a canal boat rode it to the last stop of the Bangkok canal and then a short motor bike ride from the canal and i was there all within a hour.
On my entrance into this plane graveyard i meant this very interesting guy i was talking to him and i asked him how these planes came to be here , he said a while back a very rich Thai man had them bought out here with the intention of turning them into restaurants and cocktail bars how interesting i thought but things didn't turn that way for him and it was interesting to see a couple of the DC10's bodies had been cut up and used as living quarters like a hanger quite roomy at that very ingenious idea , at least they became useful for something.
I am really stoked that i found the place and got to see these huge birds it is something you don't see everyday in Bangkok or rarely anywhere else for that matter.
