Built in 1908 by HRH Prince Chakrabongse, Chakrabongse House was originally used when he attended royal ceremonies in the Grand Palace, and for picnics and excursions on the river. Later, after the 1932 revolution, it became the residence of HRH Prince Chula Chakrabongse, historian and writer. Today it is lovingly maintained by his daughter, Narisa. The villas have been recently built to provide four luxury apartments situated in the garden, with verandas overlooking the Chao Phraya River.
