The central building of Sanam Chandra Palace is the Chaleemongkolasana Residence. This is a building you would expect to find in France or England rather than Thailand. The yellow painted castle-like structure was built in French Renaissance architectural style, while the footbridge that connects it to Mareerajaratabulung Residence looks like English half timbering style. Construction of the Palace was completed early 20th century.
The Palace has two floors, the upper one contains the private living quarters of King Rama VI, such as a bedroom, a bathroom and a study chamber. King Rama VI used to stay here to attend practices of the para military group the “Wild Tiger Corps”.
