#23-Dusit Maha Prasat Palace (The Grand Palace), Bangkok

"In the early Rattanakosin era, the Dusit Maha Prasat Palace was an audience hall, where affairs of state were conducted
and royal ceremonies performed. The palace was built by King Rama I in 1806...Renovated in the reign of King Rama III,
the building left no trace of the original workmanship...By painstaking research and study of old photos and contemporary
documents, Muang Boran has succeeded in recreating the original appearance of the palace."
