This summer palace is 90 minutes' ride by train from Hua Lamphong station in Bangkok. It is on the way to Ayutthaya Historic Park. We were expecting a taxi at the train station but there was none. So we had to take a motorbike taxi ride for around 2 km. On the way back we took a tuktuk.
It takes about 2 hours to cover the palace grounds. Notice the European design influence.
