FAMOUS ROADS AND NEIGHBORHOOD  -  Ratchadamnoen

 Description:   Ratchadamnoen Avenue, an old road in Bangkok, has several attractions that are steeped in history. Here’s a city guide for your tour of this famous road on your next Bangkok holiday.
The avenue, linking the Grand Palace to the Royal Palaces in Dusit Garden, was built in 1899 during the reign of King Rama V. It was during the Fifth Reign that the royal residence moved from the Grand Palace to the Vimanmek Palace in Dusit Garden.
Royal motorcades between the royal palace and the old city were thus a frequent occurrence along this road. This practice has continued to this day.
Three sections make up Ratchadamnoen:
-  Inner (nai) Ratchadamnoen nearer the Grand Palace,
- Central (klang) and
- Outer (nok) Ratchadamnoen nearer to the Dusit Garden.
