Khum Jao Luang

TIME : 2016/2/17 17:08:20

Built in 1892, this imposing building, sporting a mixture of Thai and European architectural styles, was the home of the final Lord, or Chao Luang, of Phrae. The structure subsequently served as a governor’s residence, and is today a museum on local history (no English signage). Ask to see the basement, which was used to punish and house slaves and prisoners.
