King Bhumibol Adulyadej and Queen Sirikit of Thailand donated the Royal Sala Thai structure to the University of Hawaii in 1967.

This sala is a replica of one built during the reign of King Rama VI (1910-1925). Legend has it that the King was sitting on the Sala one evening and saw the Buddha walk by. He then gave it the name Pratinang Patiharn Tasanai , which means "Throne of the Miracle Vision."

The Sala was rebuilt in 2006 due to wear from the weather conditions. It was re-dedicated in 2008 by Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn, daughter of King Bhumibol Adulyadej and Queen Sirikit.
