Past grandeur lives on
Life, Published on 25/01/2012
» Imagine yourself on a rice barge or steamboat chugging along the River of Kings, intermittently stopping off at the homes of a prince, a nobleman and a merchant, with the glistening spires of the Grand Palace and Wat Arun providing the backdrop for a fascinating journey back to old Siam. On Saturday, the much anticipated annual home and garden fundraising event organised by the Soroptimist International Club of Dusit is set to take guests on such a journey. The tour will offer a rare opportunity to experience the past grandeur of the rarely visited Chakrabongse Villa, the home of Prince Chakrabongse, son of Rama V; the Praya Palazzo, originally a riverside home of a nobleman at the court of Siam; plus the Chinese courtyard home of the Wanglee family _ all steeped in history and evocative of old Siam.
