It always amazes me that a major airport could possibly have a golf course between the runways!

Where else in the world but for Thailand!!!

@david at Don Mueang International Airport, Thailand

This field opened for military use in 1914, and received its first airline flights in 1924. It was a major US airbase during the Vietnam war, as well as Bangkok's main civilian airport until the new Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) opened in 2006. It's currently a joint-use military civilian airport, hosting the Royal Thai Air Force's 1st Air Division.
