Construction of Royal Crematorium Reaches 95% Completion

According to a report by Thai Post, the construction of the Royal Crematorium has reached 95% completion. Sabida Thaiseth, who has been overseeing the progress, confirmed that the project is entering its final stages. The focus is currently on the intricate decoration of the Brahma faces on the structure's spire.

Officials have stated that the installation of all sculptural elements is expected to be finalized by November 15. A significant milestone in the project will occur in November, when the ceremony to raise the Nine-Tiered Great White Umbrella of State (Phra Noppadol Maha Sawetachat) takes place.

For residents and travelers, this progress indicates that the site is nearing its final form. While the construction is largely complete, visitors should be aware that the area remains a site of significant cultural and ceremonial importance. Access to the vicinity may be restricted or subject to specific protocols as the final preparations for the upcoming ceremonies are conducted.

At this time, the exact dates for the final ceremonial events following the completion of the structure remain to be confirmed by the relevant authorities. Observers are advised to monitor official government announcements for updates regarding public access or potential traffic adjustments in the surrounding area as the project concludes.
