This is the Borom Phiman Mansion and is on the secular side of The Grand Palace. It serves as a royal guest house for VIPs. Inside, under the images of the Vedic Gods of India are listed The Kingly Virtues to be observed by monarchs:
- generosity
- righteous conduct
- personal sacrifice
- honesty
- gentleness and humility
- concentration of effort
- freedom from anger
- freedom from malice
- patience
- avoidance of wrongdoing
By the way, you'll need all these virtues in spades if you're driving through downtown Bangkok at rush hour. |
