The old Customs House, opened in 1888, is a tourist attraction, but now will undergo a full facelift to attract even more tourists, to stay there. (Photo via Tourism Authority of Thailand)Bangkok's old Customs House, a 128-year-old vintage building by the Chao Phraya River, is going to get the facelift it so deserves. The Treasury Department, the landlord of the property, is amending a contract it awarded the property developer to include some major obligations: that it regenerate the structure and incorporate conservation efforts into its project to reinvent the heritage building.
