Admire the artful curation of traditional Thai design at Jim Thompson House, a complex of buildings collected from across the country in the 1950s and 60s. The brainchild of American businessman Jim Thompson, this estate brings together classic architectural examples in one place and today offers an interesting introduction into traditional Thai arts and crafts, such as silk spinning. Relax under the verandas of the cool, rust-colored buildings, and admire the work of local craftspeople before enjoying a meal at the onsite restaurant.

Worth visiting. Really interesting to see his home and it is stunning. We are big fans of Jim Thompson so it was great to know the history.

It’s beautiful. The tours only around 45 minutes but it’s totally worth the 200B you pay. Guide was very well rehearsed in her oratory and knowledgeable when pressed further. Love the place, went 4 years ago then again recently and will pay a further visit when I’m back in BKK in a couple weeks. The grounds and rooms are magnificent to behold if you’ve an eye for the sort of planning that goes into that kind of thing. A solid recommend.

Interesting house museum that belonged to an American Silk businessman. The tour through the house explains both the art pieces as well as interesting information of Jim Thomson and the house itself. Don't miss the garden, it's as beautiful as the house and excellently maintained. I also tried the restaurant and found it good, even though it is a bit price compared to other places in Bangkok.
