Jim Thompson Thai House

This remarkable Thai-style house, was the work of Mr. Jim Thompson, an American who came to Thailand at the end of the Second World War and revived the Thai silk industry. His house, now a museum, is at the end of Soi Kasemsan 2 opposite the National Stadium on Rama I Road. On permanent display are Mr. Thompson's collection of Asian artifacts and many other fabulous antiques. It is open everyday from 9.00 a.m.-4.30 p.m. Admission costs 100 baht. Volunteer guides explain the collection to visitors.

Remarks: Bangkok - City of Angels, is an urban metropolis which size is matched by the many things to see and do. From its thriving nightlife scene and bargain shopping to some amazing historical sights, cultural attractions, wonderful food and blissful spas to spoil yourself. Your only regret will be not having enough time to experience it all. Take a moment to have a look at the many offerings of the City of Angels, and remember the better you plan your trip, the more likely you'd be able to sample the very best. Chances are good that you'll be hooked - just like those many people who keep on coming back for more.
