National Assembly Hall

The National Assembly Hall was built during the reign of King Rama V. It was constructed out of marble in the Italian Renaissaance architectural style. This is also the old parliament building that is still used to hold important royal and state ceremonies. The large paved area in front of the building is where the annual Trooping of the Colours is held every December.
