Hiking

Koh Chang has been able to boast of its very own cruise ship for some considerable time. Around 15 years ago, The Galaxy, as she is or was known, was deliberatedly beached at the very end of the west coast beyond Bang Bao Beach.

On December 4, 2024, a fire broke out. Only the metal frame is left, everything else burned. That's why I went back again now, I was there in February.

Hiking

The Galaxy Hotel is no longer in operation. However, visitors can still enter and view it from the outside. It used to be a seven-story cruise ship before being converted into a hotel. It was part of the "Koh Chang Grand Lagoona" project. However, the hotel ceased operations after the economic downturn about 20 years ago. Superstitious visitors had spread the story of people who had fallen from the seventh floor and were haunted by this ghost ship.

Luckily, I was still able to see it.
It burned down on December 4, 2024 🔥😢!
