Kham Yat palace, Royal palace ruins in Pho Thong District, Thailand.

The palace structure consists of brick and mortar walls measuring 20 meters in length and 10 meters in width, displaying traditional Thai architectural elements.

King Borommakot constructed this palace during the Ayutthaya period as a hunting lodge, later serving as residence for King Uthumphon during his time as monk.

The Fine Arts Department registered this structure as a national historic monument in 1935, preserving it as a testament to Thai royal architecture.

Visitors can access the palace grounds throughout the year, with December offering particular interest due to specific sunlight phenomena through the doorways.

During winter solstice, the setting sun creates a precise alignment through the palace windows, producing a natural light display at 5 PM.
