Chakri Maha Prasat Throne Hall, Royal throne hall in Phra Nakhon district, Bangkok, Thailand.
The throne hall extends across three stories with an Italian Renaissance marble facade and traditional Thai tiled roofs with gilded spires.
English architects John Clunich and Henry C. Rose completed the construction in 1882 under the reign of King Rama V after his trips abroad.
The interior spaces display numerous royal portraits, ceremonial artifacts, and the Bhudthan Thom Throne flanked by seven-tiered umbrellas representing monarchy authority.
Guards perform ceremonial changes every two hours in the front courtyard, while visitors can explore ancient weapon displays on weekdays.
The building combines Victorian and Thai architectural elements, featuring European-style lower floors topped with traditional Thai gabled roofs.
