The Ministry of Culture aims to nominate Phra Nakhon Khiri National Historical Park, aka Khao Wang, in Phetchaburi as a Unesco World
Heritage Site, according to Culture Minister Sudawan Wangsuphakijkosol.
Ms Sudawan said on Tuesday during the cabinet's mobile meeting in the province that the Fine Arts Department has been assigned to conduct a
feasibility of pushing the historical estate for Unesco's tentative list.
The 165-year-old Phra Nakhon Khiri was built in the reign of King Rama IV on top of a hill as a royal summer retreat.
The compound encompasses a palace, a temple and various groups of buildings and showcases a mix of neoclassical and Chinese architecture.
Phra Nakhon Khiri is one of the three palaces referred to in Phetchaburi's moniker -- Muang Sam Wang, or the City of the Three Palaces.
The other two are Phraram Rajanivet Palace and Mrigadayavan Palace.
