⚫️ HM King Bhumibol’s Hearse Blessed in Ancient Rite

Thai Prime Minister General Prayuth Chan-o-cha presided Thursday over the blessing of a historic hearse and palanquin that will be used to carry the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej on his final journey to Sanam Luang, the Royal Grounds, in front of the Grand Palace.

King Bhumibol Adulyadej, Thailand’s longest-reigning King, died Oct. 13, 2016, at the age of 88. His state cremation will follow ancient traditions and will take place from 23-29 October 2017 with the actual cremation scheduled for October 26th.

The royal funeral hearse, Phra Maha Phichai Ratcharot or “Great Victory Royal Chariot,” was first used in 1795 for the funeral of the father of King Rama I, and later to transport royals of the Chakri Dynasty. It has been beautifully restored and rebuilt for the current ceremony.

Resting atop the Phra Yanamat Sam Lamkhan or Golden Palanquin, the 13-ton carriage of carved, lacquered, and gilded wood will be pulled by 216 men.
