Vichai Prasit fort |
|
|
|
Description: |
|
The white-walled fort of Wichai Prasit was built in 1688 as part
of a defence line of forts to prevent ships from sailing up the
river to the then Siamese capital of Ayutthaya.
It is
situated on the western bank of the Chao Phraya near the
confluence of Klong Bangkok Yai. The fort is at now part of the
Royal Thai Navy’s headquarters so access is restricted but
visitors can get a good view of this structure from a river
boat. |
