People began gathering on Sunday morning to attend religious ceremonies for the late King, culminating in a moving candle-lighting ceremony that capped a day of mourning across the nation.
Siriraj Hospital holds a special place in people's hearts, since HM King Bhumibol passed away there on Oct 13, 2016.
The Impossible Dream, one of the songs composed by the late King, was played during the candle-lighting ceremony to highlight the determination of the yellow-clad Thais at the hospital to follow the example set by King Bhumibol in doing good deeds for the country.
The song was composed in 1971, with lyrics by Thanpuying Maneerat Bunnag callilng on Thais to do great things for the kingdom.
The playing of the Royal Anthem brought many to tears as they showed their love for the late monarch.
