If you have the opportunity to travel to the Phra Nakhon area, "sookjai Weekend" recommends a check-in point filled with charm and exquisite Thai architecture: Maha Chetsadabodin Royal Pavilion Plaza, an open green space in the heart of the city, located at the corner of Ratchadamnoen Klang Road and Maha Chai Road. This place is not only a place to relax, but also an important historical area that was once the location of the Chalermthai Theater in the past, before being renovated into a large open space to honor the Thai monarch.
The highlight of this place is the Royal Monument of King Nangklao (Rama III), the monarch who contributed to the nation in terms of economy and trade. Behind the Royal Monument is the location of the beautiful golden teak pavilion, which was built to be used as a reception area for royal guests and to be used in important royal ceremonies. The pavilion is decorated with intricate Thai patterns, reflecting the unique elegance of Thai art.
A highlight that photo enthusiasts shouldn't miss is the view of Loha Prasat of Wat Ratchanatdaram Worawihan, standing majestically in the background. Especially in the evening when the sunlight begins to fade and the golden lights are turned on, the atmosphere becomes even more romantic and charming. In addition, the surrounding area has beautifully landscaped gardens, perfect for taking a stroll in the cool breeze, admiring the view of Pom Mahakan and the old city walls that are not far away. It is the perfect relaxing corner on a holiday.
Visiting Maha Chetsadabodin Royal Pavilion Plaza is a worthwhile way to spend your holiday, because you will experience both historical knowledge and the aesthetics of Thai art. Anyone who wants to experience the old city life in a peaceful and beautiful corner must not miss pinning this place. And don't forget to bring your favorite camera to capture the impression to share with your friends. See you again on the next trip with sookjai Weekend.
