"Chakri Maha Prasat Hall
What? No hat? Yeah, I know, shocker. Anyway, this was a picture taken in front of the Chakri Hall. Originally, it was designed by a Brit, hence it's western styling, but the King was pressured into changing it to reflect a more traditional look. Thus, the original domed roof was replaced by a Thai styled roof. The nickname for the building is the, "westerner with a Thai hat." Maybe that's why I took off my hat for this picture?
