Description:
The magnificent ceremonial royal barges are stored and maintained here between the special occasions when they are used. Various sized boats include the largest, red-and-gold royal “Suphannahongse” (Golden Swan), carved from a single 150-foot-long teak log, weighing in at 15 tons and requiring 50 oarsmen to move it. The king rides in this one, but there are many others to see, including some that are intricately carved to represent creatures from the Ramakien mythology. Most of the vessels were made in the early 1900s and restored only in recent years. You need to take a boat to get here.
