At 5:18 PM on November 16, His Majesty the King and Her Majesty the Queen presided over the seasonal robe-changing ceremony at Wat Phra Si Rattana Satsadaram (the Temple of the Emerald Buddha) within the Grand Palace. The ritual involved changing the Emerald Buddha's attire from the rainy season to the winter season, an important tradition symbolizing the transition between seasons in Thailand.
