Ratchabopit Temple

This exquiste temple was built in the Fifth reign. An outstanding architecture
designed by a Thai craftsmanship is the circular-shaped colonnades decorated
 with the five primary colors tiles at the base of the Great Pagoda. The Ubosot
(ceremony hall) and the Vihara (main hall) are distinctive in their designs with
the Thai-style on the exterior and western-style on the interior, which is similar
 to the Versailles Palace. Other significant elements of this temple are the 100-
year-old gazebo, which was built to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the temple
, and the royal cemetery built to dedicate to the Queen consorts, Princes and
Princesses.
