It was not surprising this museum was not crowded as it feels a bit hidden away in a blue 2-story wooden house behind the large folk museum, directly across the street from 3 Kings monument plaza. Second floor had an exhibition on historical photos of Chiang Mai. The collection was arranged somewhat by theme, with popular life photos which showed fashion and activities when a dance club or music venue opened in the city. Other rooms shared photos of war time, famous people visiting Chiang Mai, and festival celebrations. I really liked this being in an old house. Take off your shoes outside and leave them at ground level at the base of the stairs. To be able to wander in socks feet across the old wooden floor boards, enjoying black and white moments captured in film was nice. The pictures are old and the indoor / outdoor nature of the house probably doesn't aid preservation, but it's a great way to see how Chiang Mai has changed.

Use the main entrance from main road. Was there as Google map took me off yesterday to back gate. Worthy trip to watch past memories. Office is on ground level. Gallery upstairs.

Excellent temp exhibition from Charnpichit Pongtongsumram about traditional Northern Thai ethnic tattoos.

Located in a beautiful building behind a museum in the center of the Old City, the Chiang Mai House of Photography was an interesting place to visit. When I went, there was a fascinating exhibit about Vietnamese fisherfolk. In addition to the photos, there are a couple of comfortable places to sit. No shoes allowed.

Photographic exhibitions regularly change here, and many of them are very good. Always worth popping in to see what's on. Completely free. the Chiang Mai House of Photography occupies 2 floors. Very easy to find opposite the Three Kings monument. I've just returned from another visit a year later. Featured today was a comprehensive collection of pictures taken approximately a century ago in Chiang Mai. They showed the profound changes compared with today. Sadly, there were only Thai captions, and no English.

Great place behind the museum and its free. Small and well set up and air conditioned downstairs. The artwork changes monthly or so.

Currently (until 15th of November) a nice little exhibition regarding astrophotography. Free entry.

Quaint gallery upstairs, current exhibition is beautiful imagery by Thai documentary photographer Suthep Kritsanavarin. Photographing the Mekong river exhibit on until 27th January 2023

The day I went they had an exhibition of historical art, which was OK. Unfortunately the ‘House of Photography’ didn’t actually have a single photo on show!

Nice place with several photo exhibition in a year without an entrance fee

Nice exhibition. A nice lady showed us around downstairs. It's worth a visit. Free entry

We saw a fantastic exhibition by Charnpichit Pongtongsumran, entitled 'The Mark of Culture'. The lower floor also has a wonderful collection of catalogues as well as student work for sale. Worth a visit!

At the beginning we didn't know much about Chiang Mai.. we want to open a business and find a home for living.. Leo, Flo and ALL the AMAZING PEOPLE at the office were working hard to help us... HIGHLY recommended for personal service like no other ! they listen, they explained everything they are the BEST ❤️ Anat & Barak

This rather small gallery showcases local artists. Not that interesting, but since it's next to the Lanna folk museum, you might as well see it.

photography exhibitions are very interesting. find more local photo inspiration. please get updated every week.

Really cool space with amazing exhibition on documenting the Mekong River with great photos and descriptions learning more about the ways of living for local fisherman on the river. Definitely worth visiting and It’s also free!

The second floor of this house hosts interesting and informative exhibitions.

Very small hairy exhibition on the 2nd floor only

Cool place.

Small but very atmospheric place. The Black and white photo’s from the 1920’s were interesting to see.

This is a nice old Thai wooden house tucked away behind the Museum but worth a visit to see the house itself but also the photo exhibitions it contains.

A small photo gellery in a small pretty building. A very nice place to stop by and it's free.
