Traveler reviews
Miguel Silva Reichinger Pinto Correia
★★★★★a year agoA hidden gem worth visiting! The villa is charming, and the Police Museum offers a fascinating insight into the history of the Thai police force. One of the highlights was learning about their work in border areas, where they engage ethnic Thai minorities in education and economic programs—an inspiring initiative that showcases their commitment beyond law enforcement. Best of all, entrance is completely free, making it an accessible and enriching experience for all visitors. Highly recommended for those interested in history, culture, and social development in Thailand!

★★★★★3 years agoThis building is designed by an Italian architect, that’s the reason you could notice some Italian architecture elements in the building. The visitation is free of charge, and a detail tour explained by a friendly lady. I had a good time and gained a lot of insight. Strongly recommend!
