Photograph at the Memorial Memorial

Standing on Ratchadamnoen Avenue in Bangkok, the 14 October 1973 Memorial remembers those lost during the Thai popular uprising. It is recognised as Thailand's first monument dedicated to those who championed democracy. The memorial was revealed in 1998.

Each year, on the fourteenth of October, this place becomes a site of collective remembrance, marking the anniversary of the historic uprising that shaped the nation's journey.
