Interesting Place
The Royal Grand Palace
The Royal Grand Palace in Bangkok is in reality a walled town covering an area of over a square mile. Besides the Chapel Royal (Wat Phra Kaeo) where the Emerald Buddha is enshrined, the principal objects of interest within the precincts of the Palace are the two halls of audience, the Dusit Maha Prasad Hall and the Amarindr Vinichai Hall. The first two date from the foundation of the city of Bangkok in A.D. 1782 and were constructed during the early years of the reign of King Rama I. The Dusit Maha P rasad, which is considered the finest building inside the Palace and is certainly one of the jewels of modern Thai architecture, was erected for ceremony purposes such as receiving envoys from foreign countries. The coronation of King Rama I took place in the Dusit Maha Prasad, but after his death the golden urn containing his remains was exposed in that Hall. In the middle of the chamber is an interesting relic of Thailand’s early days: a big stone slab with carved edges, now used as the seat of a throne .
This stone was hewn in A.D. 1292 by Ramkhamhaeng, King of Sukhothai. The Amarindr Vinichai Hall is the anterior part of a system of chambers, the last of which, the Chakraphat Phimarn Hall, was originally used as a place of residence. The middle hall , Phaisal Thaksin, where important ceremonies such as coronation and solemn audience take place contains the gorgeous pavilion on which the King appears on these occasions.
The Chakri Palace is an imposing building constructed after the plans of a British architect in the style of the Italian Renaissance, but covered with a roof of pure Thai style. Most of it is occupied by the Thorne Hall.
Wat Phra Kaeo (The Temple of the Emerald Buddha)
The Chapel Royal or Temple of the Emerald Buddha, usually called Wat Phra Kaeo and offically named Sri Ratana Sasadaram Temple, is the most interesting and famous of Bangkok’s temples. Since its foundation in 1785 A.D., it has never been allowed to f all into decay. This collection of chapels, halls, towers, etc., can be divided into two groups: The Bot or Chapel of the Emerald Buddha proper, and the small edifices which stand around, viz., three small chambers on the west, twelve salas, the belfry on the south, and a small chapel in the southeastern corner. The central chapel was erected by King Rama I, according to the usual plan of Thai temples, for the purpose of keeping the famous Emerald Buddha, which is placed upon a magnificent altar. The uppe r part of this altar, which is as old as the chapel itself, is raised on a base added by King Rama III. On either side is a standing image of the Buddha, and these are said to personify the first two Kings of the present Dynasty.
The building on the platform to the north of the Bot include the Library in the northeastern corner and a small chapel in the northwestern corner. The nucleus of this second or northern group of buildings is the Mahamandapa, a square pavilion erected by King Rama I on the site of the ancient Library which was destroyed by fire as soon as it was completed. This pavilion was built for the purpose of keeping the sacred Scriptures and was restored by King Mongkut (Rama IV). One should not fail to see in this library the magnificent bookcase in lacquered teak inlaid with mother-of-pearl, which was made by order of King Rama I and is considered to be the best specimen of this kind of work. The covered gallery which runs round the temple courtyard is intere sting on account of the wall paintings which represent episodes from the Ramakien (the Thai version of the Indian epic Ramayana). They were made during the reign of King Rama I, renewed under King Rama III, and again under King Mongkut. Besides the buildi ngs just mentioned, the precincts of at Phra Kaeo contain several objects of interest: giants, bronze images the lions, elephants, oxen, and monkeys of good modern workmanship. Eight towers stand in a row on the eastern side of the main temple. The colo urs of the glazed tiles with which they are covered are different for each tower.
Wat Benchamabopit (The MarbleTemple)
This temple was built by King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) on the ground formerly occupied by Wat Sai Thong, and has now become famous as the “Marble Temple”. It is a fine example of modern Thai art and was constructed with choice tiles materials: Italian Carrara marble, Chinese glazed tiles, etc. The main entrance is through a gate whose front in the form of a naga or snake is inspired by old Khmer art. The handsome iron railings were executed in the Navy workshop. The small pavilions on each side of the approach to the temple are inspired by ancient Javanese architecture. The northern one shelters a Burmese image of the Buddha in white alabaster. In the southern one, the visitor will admire a fine bronze statue of the Buddha sitting on a naga. This statu e was originally in Chaiya in South Thailand, and bears an inscription of the 12th century, in Cambodian recording, that it was cast by order of a King whose name is known as King Malayur (Jambi, in Sumatra). The bot or chapel in white, covered with a roof made of red glazed tiles, is well proportioned and its internal decoration is very subdued.The big image of the Buddha inside is an exact reproduction of the famous Phra Jinaraj in Phitsanulok, which is considered one of the finest statues of the Buddha ever made in Thailand. Behind the chapel, a cloister contains in its covered galleries an extremely interesting collection of original images. All the types which are known in Thailand are represented in this unique collection. There are also Indian, Bur mese and Japanese specimens, either originals or copies. Some are quiet modern and display very good workmanship. Especially worth seeing are the two walking Buddhas from Sukhothai, the first capital of Thailand, which are in the Western gallery. Among th e other subjects in the Marble Temple are the Viharn Somdej with its fine windows in lacquer and gold, and the bronze figures of a Rajasi on each side of the main entrance, and under a tree nearby a colossal head of the Buddha in bronze which comes from Chaing Mai.
Wat Arun (The Temple of Dawn)
Wat Arun or the Temple of Dawn, whose high tower is one of the most prominent monuments of Bangkok, was formerly an old temple called Wat Chaeng, and this old name is still in use among the people. The chief attraction of Wat Arun is the tower of the Phra Prang, 74 metres high, from which the visitor enjoys a beautiful view of Bangkok, the Palace and Royal Temples, the river, and the harbour. This tower rises in the center or a square whose corners are marked by four smaller towers, the plan being so mewhat similar to that of Angkor Wat’s upper terrace. The central tower is supported by a series of bases resting on caryatids of various kinds (angels, giants, monkeys, etc.) The God Phra Indra on his white elephant can be seen in each of the four niches . The lower terrace includes four small pavilion: each of these contains an image of the Buddha represented in four different episodes of his life: birth, Enlightenment, victory over the Evil One, and Death. This group of building is entirely covered with fragments of porcelain.
Wat Phra Jetuphon or Wat Po
(The Temple of the Reclining Buddha), The oldest and largest temple in Bangkok
On the site where Wat Phra Jetuphon now stands there was formerly an old temple called Wat Bhodharam (Temple of the Sacred Fig Tree), and Wat Po (or Bo) is still its popular name. The modern temple was begun in 1793 by King Rama I, who installed in t he various chapels several old statues from Ayutthaya. Restorations and additions were made by king Rama III and King Rama V. The plan of the buildings in Wat Phra Jetphon may seen somewhat intricate to the visitor who sees them for the first time, but it is in fact very simple. The central chapel or bot is in the middle of a courtyard enclosed in a square gallery sheltering endless rows of images of the Buddha in a sitting posture. Each side of the gallery is interrupted by small chapels containing imag es of the Buddha outside this kind of cloister, and on the west side are four high stupas and a huge building containing a colossal image of the Reclining Buddha, an enormous image of brick and concrete, finished with gold, 150 feet long and 40 feet high. The images of the Buddha placed in these temples are well worth seeing. The central one comes from Wat Sala Seena in Ayutthaya, and among those kept in the small chapels the big standing statue comes from Wat Sisarabejr (Ayutthaya) and the Buddha sittin g on the naga comes from Lopburi. The four western stupas or Phra Chedis are good specimens of modern Thai architecture.
Wat Sutat
The construction of Wat Sutat was first undertaken by King Rama I, continued by King Rama II, completed by King Rama III and further renewed by King Chulalongkorn. The temple is essentially of two big chapels, one almost square, opening towards the n orth, while the other long and narrow, opening towards the east and situated to the south of the first temple or bot, is erected on a high terrace in the center of a courtyard enclosed in a covered gallery full of sitting Buddhas. The most conspicuous feature of the building is its double roof, which is unique I Thai architecture. The great temple lying on the South side is a long building of 72 metres, famous on account at the base of the altar. There is a smaller one presiding over an assembly of his eighty great disciples. These are represented life-size, painted in natural colours, and the sight of this silent council never fails to make a deep impression on the imagination of visitors.
