สุสานหลวง วัดราชบพิธสถิตมหาสีมารามราชวรวิหาร
Royal Cemetery, Wat Ratchabophit Sathit Maha Simaram Ratchaworawihan stands in Bangkok as a royal burial ground. Thirty-four monuments honour members of Thailand’s Royal Family, especially relatives of King Chulalongkorn. Thai numerals mark the monuments, guiding your eye through a setting shaped by royal memorials and varied architectural forms. One numbered monument, three, has been removed.
Four white buildings commemorate King Chulalongkorn’s principal wives and hold the ashes of their descendants. They are the Sunandha Nusavarya, Rangsi Vadhana, Saovabha Pratisthana, and Sukhumala Narumitra Memorials. Other structures show different influences, including the Gothic-style Chao Chom Manda Sae Monument and the European-style Chao Khun Phra Prayurawongse Monument. The latter is known as the Little Temple.
The Lopburi-style Triple Prang echoes Prang Sam Yot through Khmer-style artwork. Chao Chom Manda Yoi Monument carries intricate lotus-petal designs. Consorts, princes, princesses, and other royal family members are commemorated across the grounds. Together, the monuments connect royal remembrance with Thailand’s architectural heritage.
