The picture of deterioration of Ekalongkot Pavilion during the Rama VII period. Built as a pair to Mangkhalaphisek Pavilion in the Center Court of the former Front Palace in Bangkok. Ekalongkot no longer exists in present-day Bangkok.During the reigns of First King Mongkut and Second King Pinklao,several structures were developed that nearly echoed those within the Grand Palace. King Rama IV redesigned the Front Palace in order to celebrate the newly elevated status of its inhabitant: Second King Pinklao. The Mangkhalaphisek and Ekalongkot Pavilions were constructed to celebrate this new status.
