    This Structure, situated in front of Waikun Thepayasathan, was originally an audience hall in 1910 when the Queen Mother resided at Phya Thai Palace and it is the only building remaining intact from her time. Her initials SP (she was originally called Saovabha Phongsi)  can still be seen on the lunettes at the four ends of the roof.

 
   This building features curtain characteristics of Byzantine architecture. It has a central dome and vaulted roof. There are paintings of men, women and children as well as tree and floral motifs. Religious rites and royal functions such as the King's birthday celebration were held here. Sometimes the King used the hall to receive visitors, or turned it into a playhouse or cinema hall.
