Bang Pa In Summer Palace
Constructed during the reign of King Prasat Thong (1629-1656), this riverside palace complex (20km south of Ayutthaya) is set in a lovely landscaped lake garden that was once an island itself.
The royal chronicle recorded only one building – Aisawan Thiphaya-art Royal Residence – during King Prasat Thong’s time. Abandoned after Ayutthaya fell, it was revived by King Rama IV (r. 1851-1868) who commissioned additional buildings to be constructed in an eclectic style that blends European neoclassical and Victorian architecture with Early Ayutthaya and Chinese palace styles
