Vimanmek Palace

Vimanmek Mansion or Palace was built by King Rama V in 1900, few years after he returned from Europe where he visited numerous palaces. This palace is also special for the fact that nails weren´t used during its construction. From the interior decoration of the palace, one can conclude that king liked very much what he saw in Europe because one can notice a combination of European neoclassical style and traditional Thai influence. The entire palace has 72 rooms and it was used for a short period of time before the king moved to a new palace. This palace today is dedicated to King Rama where visitors can see his photos and handicrafts.
