The Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall is the centerpiece of Bangkok’s Champs Elysees, situated on the end of Dusit’s wide, long Royal Plaza, a lush ceremonial boulevard. This impressive two-story white marble palace was created by renowned Italian architects, Annibale Rigott and Mario Tamango, and boasts neoclassical Renaissance architecture. Its ornate interiors serve as a prestigious locale used to hold state council meetings, impress visiting dignitaries, and host royal events. Additionally, the hall acts as a museum welcoming visitors to explore its elegant décor while viewing a few permanent exhibitions from the country’s national artists. Guided 30-mintue tours are available for those who want to gain knowledge on the building’s history.
