Grand Palace, Bangkok

Grand Palace, Bangkok have been for over 150 years, was not only the home of the King, but also the entire administrative seat of government. Within the crenelated walls were the country's war ministry, state departments, and even the mint. The palace complex, like the rest of is laid out following the general outline of Ayutthaya palaces. The Outer Court, near where you enter the complex today, housed the government departments in which the king was directly involved, such as civil administration, including the army, and the treasury.
