Viki Lien
★★★★★3 weeks agoGreat little museum for only 100 baht! This small but very interesting museum is packed with engaging interactive exhibits that make learning about Thailand’s history and culture fun and easy. You can even dress up in traditional Thai costumes and take photos, a highlight for many visitors! It’s easy to spend 1–2 hours here exploring everything (The building itself is very pretty as well) Perfect for kids, families, and foreigners who want to immerse themselves in Thai culture in an enjoyable way. Highly recommended, especially at this affordable price.

★★★★★a month agoA fun and light-hearted look at Thailand, Pre-Modern to Modern Thai history and Thai culture.. There are about a dozen exhibits, but the ones that stand out are Thai religion, Thai style clothing and the replica of a throne halls. My favourite is the rotating display of the costume worn for a beauty pageant.
