Third procession of Royal Cremation starts

The third procession of the Royal Cremation began at 1.29pm on Thursday.

The procession was joined by His Majesty the King Maha Vajiralongkorn and Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn.
The procession began after the Royal Urn of His Majesty the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej was transferred from the Great Victory Chariot to the Royal Gun-Carriage.
The third procession circulates three rounds counter-clockwise around the Royal Crematorium, after which the Royal Urn will be taken to the funeral pyre or Phra Chittakathan.
Each round is 260 metres long.
