My Equipment: Sony A7Rii with 16-34mm f/4 and 70-200mm f/4 lenses.
On the afternoon of December 5th, I had the opportunity to visit the Royal Crematorium at Sanam Luang. It had been a month since the public opening, and it was fortunate that the viewing period had been extended for another month.
The sky was overcast today, with a gloomy atmosphere throughout the day, as if mourning the sadness and grief on this important national day. Due to the overcast sky, the air was cooler, making the walk-through pleasantly cool and not stifling.
We opted for taxi services due to their convenience for travel. We disembarked at Yommarat Expressway and proceeded to Ratchadamnoen Road, arriving at the screening point near Phra Mae Thorani Bip Muaen. The timing was opportune, as the crowd was not overwhelming, perhaps due to the approaching evening hours. We passed through the screening point in under 10 minutes and followed the orderly path designated by officials to the waiting tent. After a wait of no more than 15 minutes, we were directed to the entrance road to Phra Meru Mas.
Upon reaching the entrance road to the Phra Meru Mas, we are presented with a breathtaking panoramic view of the grand structure, a testament to the King's esteemed status.
We approached the royal crematorium, admiring its intricate decorations from all angles. The meticulous craftsmanship of the master artisans, who dedicated their work as a final tribute to His Majesty, was evident in every detail.
The four cardinal directions around the base of the Phra Meru are adorned with the Anothat pools.
The Anothai pool is adorned with exquisite sculptures of mythical Himalayan creatures.

In addition, there are indoor exhibition sections in various buildings, including the Phra Thinang Song Tham, which displays exhibitions on royal projects and initiatives.
Those who have not yet visited the exhibition still have time to do so until the end of December. It is not yet known whether the exhibition will be extended.
