Lonely Planet review

West of the Victory Monument roundabout, Phayathai Palace was built by King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) in 1909 as a cottage for retreats into what was then the country. The surviving throne hall, encased in French glass doors and a fanciful tiered roof, is now part of a hospital complex and is open to the public. The grounds are open at other times. There isn't much in the way of tourist displays but it's worth it to survey the architecture of the buildings and escape the sightseeing masses.
