MR Kukrit Pramoj House

TIME : 2016/2/17 17:03:08

Author and statesman Mom Ratchawong Kukrit Pramoj (1911–95) once resided in this charming complex now open to the public. Surrounded by a manicured garden famed for its Thai bonsai trees, the five teak buildings introduce visitors to traditional Thai architecture, arts and to the former resident, who served as prime minister of Thailand in 1974 and ’75, wrote more than 150 books (including the highly respected Four Reigns ) and spent 20 years decorating the house.

The house is occasionally closed to private events, so it's a good idea to call ahead before visiting.
