We
loved
it.
It
is
easy
to
find
and
close
to
other
attractions
in
the
Ban
Rak/Silom
area.
the
admission
was
free.
The
guides
were
so
friendly
and
helpful.
I
was
accompanied
as
always
by
my
Thai
wife
so
much
of
our
tour
was
in
Thai,
but
they
speak
excellent
English.
The
Bangkok
Folk
Museum
is
actually
two
Thai
houses
from
circa
1937.
They
are
beautiful
have
been
well
maintained
in
the
original
manner.
The
main
house
as
you
enter
the
grounds
has
the
traditional
visiting
and
living
style
spaces
downstairs
with
living
quarters
for
the
family
upstairs.
The
rooms
are
filled
with
beautiful
antiques
from
the
era
and
people
who
lived
in
the
house(s).
Between
the
two
houses
is
an
beautiful
shaded
garden
with
a
large
pond.
The
smaller
house
in
the
back
was
to
be
an
office
and
clinic
for
the
stepfather
but
he
passed
away
before
he
could
move
in.
It
also
has
a
nice
collection
of
antique
furnishings
and
medical
items.
There
is
another
building
located
on
the
grounds.
It
is
the
Ban
Rak
local
history
museum
and
tells
the
story
of
the
development
of
Ban
Rak.
The
building
contains
family
heirlooms,
old
collections,
and
many
other
interesting
period
items.
There
is
even
an
old
style
Thai
kitchen
like
my
wife
remembers
from
her
grandmother's
house.
We
spent
a
really
nice
afternoon
here.
