This is one of my favourite buildings in Bangkok. It is situated on Ratchdamnoen Avenue next to Wat Ratchanadda. It is called Loha Prasat but also known as the Metal Palace due to its cast iron spires. he building is based on an ancient Sri Lankan temple and was began in the early 19th century by King Rama III, but has only relatively recently been completed.
