As a child he joined his father on trips to many places, including Europe. Unlike the other princes, Urubongse was not educated in Europe, but instead received instruction from foreign teachers at a private residence in Siam.
He died on 20 September 1909, on King Chulalongkorn's birthday, at the age of 15. His death brought sadness to the members of the Royal Family, especially King Chulalongkorn. The king ordered the building of a bridge in the city with sculptures of Prince Urubongse set into both sides. King Chulalongkorn named the bridge after his son; Uruphong Bridge, where Uruphong Avenue crossed. This bridge was eventually demolished but Uruphong Road and Uruphong Intersection remain today.
