New 100 Million Baht Tourist Attraction Burned To The Ground

A brand new 100 million baht Thai-style wooden house at Ban Phayamai near Pattaya was burned to the ground on Friday morning.

Firefighters were called to Ban Phayamai in Nong Preu at around 10am and took several hours to bring the blaze under control.
