PictureKlai Kangwon Palace
Klai Kangwon Palace stands by the sea in the Hua Hin District of Prachuap Khirikhan Province. King Prajadhipok (Rama VII) has graciously built it as a summer palace for Queen Rambai Barni by using money from Privy Purse. He ordered Prince Iddhidehsarn Kridakara, an architectural graduate from the Ecole Des Beaux Arts in France and the director of the Department of Fine Arts, to design and supervise the construction. His Majesty King Bhumibol (Rama IX) has graciously commanded to expand the area of the palace. He ordered to build a mansion for HRH Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn, and other buildings in the same style as the original seventh reign buildings so as to preserve harmony among the buildings of the palace. Also, the accommodation has been built for their entourage.
King Rama VII commanded the Klai Kangwon (Far From Worries) Palace to be built in 1929. This Spanish-style summer palace faces the sea and dominates an extensive ornamental garden. The Thai Royal Family still customarily spend the hottest months of the year, usually March through April, there. Members of the public can visit the palace between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. every day, when the Royal Family is not in residence. Admission fee is 20 baht. Call 0 3251 1115.
