Comment
Cradle ceremony for Princess Bajrakitiyabha born on December 7, 1978, daughter of Prince Vajiralongkorn and Princess Soamsawali.The cradle ceremony celebrates the newborn's first month of life.
Interesting fact
The 5 Baht coin commemorating the Royal Cradle Ceremony of King Rama IX in 1979 features an image of the king's cradle on one side and the Thai emblem on the other. It's interesting to note that the coin was minted in a year when Thailand was still using the traditional Buddhist Era dating system, which is why the year 2522 is inscribed on the coin instead of the Gregorian year 1979.
