Traveler reviews
Prue Atkins
★★★★★4 weeks agoFascinating to see the life of a middle class family in a house built in the 1930's. Great collection of household items and collections of old items from the family's travels. So different to all the bigger more slick museums.
Roy Yi Ling Ngerng
★★★★★10 months agoIt's really worth coming here to visit, to take a look at how people lived in the early 1900s in Bangkok. It's nice to take a walk in the house and feel what it's like, and it items in the house have been maintained as they were. It's free to visit this museum and it's currently being maintained by the government.
