It was built on the base having the same level as the bridge balustrade to value the royal monument graciously. The hall also exhibits historic and practical stories of King Ananda Mahidol. Chao Phraya Riverside Recreational Ground – The floor was concreted to prevent floods and to serve loads of visitors in various activities, such as walking, jogging, sitting, ceremony and event arrangement especially sightseeing of water related traditional festivals e.g. Royal Barge Procession or Loi Krathong, etc. Public Recreational Ground – The area is composed of two parts, the area beside canal Khlong Bang Yi Khan and the area under Rama VIII Bridge, which are divided by the royal monument building.
