Royal Plaza, Public square in Dusit District, Bangkok, Thailand

Royal Plaza, also called Dusit Palace Plaza, is a large rectangular public square in the government quarter of Bangkok, Thailand. It features a bronze equestrian statue of King Chulalongkorn on a tall stone pedestal, with a long building topped by a green dome in the background.

The plaza was created in the early 20th century during the reign of King Chulalongkorn and became known for its equestrian statue, inaugurated in 1908. In 1932, it was the rallying site for the People's Party, which brought an end to absolute monarchy in Siam.

The plaza is a site of national remembrance, especially on October 23, when a ceremony honors King Chulalongkorn. Visitors can see Thais from all walks of life placing wreaths at the statue throughout the year.

The square is open to visitors, but parts may be fenced off for security, so check access points before you go. It is a good idea to wear comfortable shoes and bring water, as the area is large and exposed to the sun.

A small brass plaque once marked the spot where the 1932 revolution was declared, but it disappeared in 2017 and was replaced by a new plaque. The original plaque has never been found.
