Wat Ratchabophit วัดราชบพิธสถิตมหาสีมาราม
The temple is located on Fuang Nakhon Road, near Wat Pho. Built by King Rama V in 1869, it was in keeping
with tradition that each monarch constructed a temple to mark his reign. The temple is a mixture of local and
western styles, showing an awakening interest in new ideas and a desire to experiment with them. The exterior
of the chapel is in Thai style but the interior is decorated in European style.
