    Such a lovely museum! You can feel the warmth and inviting atmosphere by looking at the antiques furniture and vintage pieces of this family. Thank you for the opportunity to see this beautiful home - mix of Chinese, Thai and western styles 🤩 The guides were super nice and knowledgeable and told us interesting stories in English ♥️

    It’s live museum which means the owners still live there upstairs. Surprisingly, we received a tour by the owner (it was not sth we expected, as she gathered us during our wandering around the house and proposed that she can tell us more about the place). It was really interesting, she explained to us a lot about the house and her family, we could feel a lot of positive energy. I think it was one of the most interesting museums I’ve visited. For me it’s must visit while in Phuket old town area.
