English: I stayed at Hotel Siam Intercontinental, which was outside the main downtown area. I walked around the afternoon of my arrival, and found Chulalongkorn University. This is the main building. I was surprised to see some students playing soccer.
Chulalongkorn University was named after King Rama V. It was founded in 1917 by his son and successor, King Rama VI. Chulalongkorn (1853-1910, reigned 1868-1910) was the young prince in "Anna and the King of Siam" and the musical "The King and I."
