#VisitAncientSite Today, Min will take you to visit Ban Wichayen, Lopburi Province. 🏡 A luxurious European-style building from the Ayutthaya period. The residence of Chao Phraya Wichayen A high-ranking nobleman, the most favorite? During the reign of King Narai the Great of Ayutthaya 🪨 Architecture: Renaissance; Thai architecture At first, I almost didn't make it in time because it was close to closing time. Opening hours: 8:30-16:30, Tuesdays are closed. Min got in for free again. Everyone was confused, haha. (Maybe because it was the last 20 minutes before closing time.) But the sign said the entrance fee: Thais 10 baht, foreigners 30 baht. 🕓 👩🏻When I got there, I walked around once, trying to look at the sign, but I still didn't quite understand. So I went to ask the staff. >,,< Looking into the place, this royal house There will be buildings made of red bricks, some single-storey, some two-storey, some with basements. (You can see from the photos taken.) 😁 The officer told Min that if you look in, the left side with the white fence will be like a wine cellar because there is a basement and you will find a wine storage area. For Min, it is very wow because in the Ayutthaya period, they were able to build such a magnificent place. It truly deserves the title of “favorite person.” ⚘️ 📷As for the food in front, if you look straight in, it will be the residence of the Lord himself. And in the middle is a wooden cross (it looks like the base is hard to see). And behind the wooden cross is a chapel or a Christian church. 📷Behind the chapel, walk further in and you will find a Western-style bathhouse with hot water pipes, indicating that in the past, this place must have been very luxurious. 📷And on the right hand side, there will be a royal residence that received all the ambassadors. When Min went, there was a newly discovered area, a wide open space. The officer told Min that it should be underground because there are many basements in this area. 🧱In the heart of Lopburi, there are ancient sites, old cities like this. It makes us imagine that How was Lopburi before? How magnificent was it? I watched the drama and I was into it, everyone. 5555+ P.S. The information I got was mainly from asking the staff.

I am really into it. 555+ Address: Wichayen Road, Tha Hin Subdistrict, Mueang Lopburi District, Lopburi 15000 #BanWichayen #Lopburi #VisitLopburi #VisitThailand #History #HistoricalSite #AyutthayaEra #LavoProvince #VisitNaraiWang #NaraiRatchanives

The Royal Envoy House or Ban Wichayen is located on Wichayen Road, Mueang Lop Buri District, Lop Buri Province, not far from Phra Narai Ratchaniwet. In the past, these beautiful houses were built to accommodate the embassies who came to pay their respects to King Narai the Great in Lop Buri. The first embassy from France that arrived in 1685 stayed here. Later, when a Greek named Constantine Phaulkon entered the service and received merit, he was appointed Chao Phraya Wichayen and granted him a residence on the west side of the Royal Envoy House, which is the origin of the name of the Royal Envoy House or Ban Luang Wichayen. The architecture of some of the Royal Envoy Houses is truly European, especially the large building on the east side, built of brick and mortar, with two floors. The windows and doorways reflect the Renaissance style of Western art, which was popular at that time. #Historic site #Lopburi #Travel #Follow the footsteps of Aojao
