(Crown Property Bureau graphic)The Crown Property Bureau will build an underground parking lot for 700 vehicles below Nagaraphirom park, on the Chao Phraya riverside, and a museum of classical dance and other facilities on the ground next to the Grand Palace. Oranuch Imarom, head of the bureau's conservation management department, said on Thursday the 800-million-baht project would relieve the problem of inadequate parking near the Grand Palace, a major tourist destination. The underground parking building would consist of 3.5 floors, each 2.7 metres high, for use by private cars and vans, Mrs Oranuch said. Source: Crown Property Bureau
