Siam's first museum, there's not a lot of style going on here but the colection is great! Seek out the statues by the rear stairs for a real slice of history with some very important religious relics!

What a delightful building! Teak is such a gorgeous wood, and the house is so charmingly furnished I totally adored it. It feels so historic and old and lovely.

This is a really interesting sight. Its located about 30km outside Bangkok and has been described as the world's largest open air museum.It's a recreation of the great buildings and monuments of ancient Siam arranged in the shape of the kingdom, with each monument in its correct place geographically. A really interesting day excursion.

Jim Thomson House

posted by fberkheimer on 26 October 2010 at 15:43

This is one of the most popular attractions in Bangkok and is a really wonderful little museum to all things South East Asian. Jim Thomson was an American Silk merchant who had a passion for all aspects of the local culture and ever since his mysterious disappearance, his house has served as a gallery for his collections. Make sure you visit it.
