Let's get down to business. One day, I was feeling bored at home, so I decided to take a trip down memory lane. Actually, I was just feeling hot and wanted to find a place with air conditioning. Without hesitation, I hopped on the BTS and headed to Ekkamai station.

Walk back a little towards the Ekkamai Bus Terminal, and you will reach the Planetarium.

The entrance is clearly marked with a sign: Science Center for Education.

We arrived and queued to buy tickets to see the stars. Who says you can only see stars at night? Not true! If you want to see stars during the day, come here!

"Where can you see the fake sky?"

One ticket for the planetarium show at 11:00 AM and one ticket for the exhibition. Admission fees for the Bangkok Planetarium are 20 baht for children and 30 baht for adults. Admission fees for the exhibition are also 20 baht for children and 30 baht for adults.

While waiting for the 11:00 am show, I decided to grab a bite to eat. I had some sticky rice with pork that I had brought with me.

Before 11:00 AM, you will hear an announcement from the staff calling all visitors who have purchased tickets to enter the planetarium dome. You can choose your seats freely. After taking your seats, the staff will begin their presentation and project a star show on the screen above your head.

Passengers are free to choose their seats. Shortly after boarding, the staff began their presentation and projected a star show onto the ceiling above our heads.

Photography is permitted during the performance, but the use of flash is prohibited.

The vast universe is empty, so empty, so lonely. Oh, my love, today because you are not here (Suddenly I think of this song).

The entire time watching the star projection, I must say I was truly excited. The children's voices erupted in cheers at every moment, further amplifying the enjoyment. It felt like stepping back in time to my childhood.

An hour of daytime stargazing for only 30 baht? That's incredible value for money!

After that, I went to see the exhibition for which I had bought a ticket earlier that morning, also for 30 Thai baht.

As a child, I dreamed of wearing this outfit. Now, I still dream of it. :)

This is likely a depiction of a planetarium sky from a bygone era.

This tunnel is extremely disorienting, making it difficult to walk straight. Only those with exceptional balance and spatial awareness can navigate it without difficulty.

This angle is where everyone comes to find the location of their own house. "Let's find our roof."
