About this place

This monument honours King Vajiravudh, Rama VI, in front of Phayathai Palace on Ratchawithi Road. Use the palace and 315 Ratchawithi Road as the arrival reference: this record covers the monument itself, rather than the palace interiors or hospital services. The forecourt is used for commemorations. Mahidol University recorded a wreath-laying visit here on 25 November 2022. This dated ceremony is historical context, not a published schedule for visitors. Google Maps labels the monument as open 24 hours, but unrestricted public entry through the surrounding grounds has not been established. Follow on-site access instructions and check arrangements before a special journey. Palace interior tours, ceremonies and hospital access may have separate arrangements. The photograph is credited to THAILEX’s exact Phayathai Palace monument entry. Its capture date is unknown, so ceremonial decorations shown are not a current display guarantee.
