Such a special experience being welcomed into someone's family home from decades past, so much history and stories and love in this space. Still now the love and pride with this space shown by the thai people and the volunteers is very sweet. What a gorgeous experience and beautiful home

Fantastic place to learn about the history of Bang Rak and Thailand in general. The museum consists of three beautiful houses set in a peaceful garden, each showcasing different aspects of traditional Bangkokian life in the mid-20th century.

The site features three beautifully preserved houses. One highlights the lifestyle of

This is a great little place to travel back in time for a moment. The house itself is beautiful and remarkably well-preserved for a home built almost 100 years ago, filled with many artifacts from the era.

The whole tour only took about 25 minutes and it was completely free, which is an amazing act of kindness from the family to open their home to the public. Highly recommen

It'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.

The museum - can it really be considered as such? - is free so it is worthy a visit of maximum one hour. It's basically an area with 3 apartments still kept as it was around the 1930's a big garden. It belonged to a Thai lady which was married to an Indian doctor and then to a Chinese one; one of her daughters decided to make it a museum. Several ladies will try to explain you in bad English about the museum and keep picture of you for the Thai Government, strange! I wanted to donate some money
