Kraison Siharat Palace (Yen Palace) - Lopburi Thailand 2023
The Kraison Siharat residential hall commonly known as Phra Thinang Yen or the Thale Chup Son Hall was situated on an island in the Thale Chup Son freshwater reservoir which is believed to date back to the period of the Khmer rule in the 13th century. The reservoir name translates into arrow dip lake from a story of the Hindu god Vishnu dipping his arrow into the water, making it a sacred place.
King Narai had this palace built as a country retreat and he stayed here to rest from training and hunting wild elephants. It's a partially restored ruin. There's enough left standing to make a visit enjoyable but not worth a special trip unless you are a real history buff. It's north of the new town, 5km from San Phra Kan, and is one of the combined ticket sites that includes the sites in the old city like Phra Prang Sam Yod and the Narai Palace.
Back in the king's day there was a lake here, which allowed clear sky views, and in 1685 the French brought him out here to see a lunar eclipse. There were several Jesuit priests that assisted with the calculations for the eclipse and views of the sky were perfect due to the surrounding lake. This event is said to be the start of Thai science.
