“Photogenic” car park at BKK shopping mall
Photo spots help businesses draw the attention of customers, which explain the numerous IG-worthy spots around BKK. So, this shopping mall in Bangkok came up with an idea to transform their car park into a photogenic backdrop for Instagrammers.
Their car park finally went viral not for its photogenic look but for its design that looks just like a love motel.
The car park is pink and also has a curtain

Most love hotels in Thailand come with a curtain at the front, a car park, and a fancy-looking room. For Thais, this type of motels are specifically for secret rendezvous.

You might not expect to see this kind of a setting in a shopping mall car park for sure, but this picture was captured at Seacon Square, a shopping mall along Srinakarin Road in Bangkok.
The car park has a hot pink wall with cupid and heart paintings that reminded shoppers of no-tell motels.

There are curtains along with a neon sign just like most love motels.
Shoppers were surprised and confused about what this “love car park” was for. So, there was a netizen asking the shopping mall for more details and found out that this was aimed to be a photo backdrop for customers.
Translation: This is our new project called MUNx2 (MUN MUN) that aims to offer customers photogenic backdrops.
There are many other photo spots in this car park, like the one across the pink room themed like an old-school gas station and a Platform 9 ¾ from Harry Potter.
