This locale is a former royal residence consisting of eight traditional Thai teak wood houses as well as an elegant garden. The palace contains a collection of fine arts as well as a number of ancient artifacts. The Lacquer Pavillion, originally built in Ayuthaya during the mid-17th century, was dismantled and rebuilt at the palace compound here. Gaze upon a collection of Ban Chiang artifacts, dating back to 3600 BC, portraying Thailand's ancient cultural heritage with its pottery, iron/bronze tools, and glass ornaments. Next is the Marsi Gallery which exhibits a number of contemporary artworks. Inside the palace you will also be able to view the Royal Barge named "Koo Kung Bayam".

Chutimy was extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter and Jim Thompson. She also gave us the history of Thailand and growing up in the area. She arrived at the scheduled time with her driver who did an amazing job of driving in downtown Bangkok. Chutimy was very friendly and fun to be around. She gave us an excellent tour.
