Visit Jim Thompson’s house museum, an elegant collection of traditional Thai teak houses set in a peaceful tropical garden in the heart of Bangkok. The rooms contain furniture, sculptures and artworks from Southeast Asia, offering a distinctive insight into traditional aesthetics and architecture. Your guide also recounts the American entrepreneur’s life, his role in the international revival of Thai silk and the mystery of his disappearance.
