Lovely to talk to close generation living descendants and residents of this mansion. The blend of Chinese and European is quite unique and well worth a visit for those curious on some of Phuket’s architecture and history. 150THB each to enter. You can browse at your leisure or speak to the family for a tour of the Ground Floor.

It’s full of historical, contemporary art and engineering in this house. The house owner will show your around and tell you stories of house. The fee to enter house is 100THB.

You get to experience the sino-portuguese architecture and culture. The owner is very welcoming and friendly. He gave us a tour of the house and told us about the history of his family, local traditions and answered all of our questions. He advised about local cuisine and places to visit in Phuket and all his recommendations were amazing! Thank you!

Amazing experience, highly recommended to all who are interested in local culture. Thanks to the owner, who kindly gave me an incredibly informative tour, I knew more about history of Phuket and this family.

The mansion built in 1903 in the Sino-colonial style . Entry fees is 200 Baht , which was collected by a house keeper who spoke no English and no ticket was issued . Only major history buff or architecture students will enjoy . Not for casual tourist. You are given a small sheet of paper with useless information. The house is small but well maintained. Only ground floor is accessible. But most of the tour you are left guessing as to what and why the things are. A guided tour or explanatory text would help. Almost no one spoke English and i was not sure what was included in the ticket and what was now . They were laying out things to eat by the time i came out . I has no clue if that was for visitors or the staff was preparing for snacks for themselves.

Dao is not only a very talented artist, she is an absolute sweetheart and such a delight to spend time with. We met three years ago and again on my most recent visit. Her creativity has only grown as she continues to explore new mediums and designs. She has created an atmosphere that is welcoming and fun that makes you want to just hangout all night, every night. She also does henna tattoos and created an amazing octopus on my shoulder/arm. If you're looking to make a new local friend, wanting to find some beautiful artwork as a gift or to add to your own collection, stop by her shop. It's definitely worth the visit!

This is a very nice Chinese-Thai house to visit. The guide explained to us the history of the family that is still living there. Entry fee is 150 thb.

Looking for indoor activities on this rainy day in Phuket Museums, libraries, bookstores, etc. Stopped by for a quick look, the grounds are green, cleanand inviting. This museum tells the story of Phuket, from the beginning Chinese rulers... If this is your thing, 150 baht. Wish it included a guided tour. Would be much more worthwhile for foreigners.

We enjoyed this little museum and was impressed by the owner and his family history. The exceptional energy and calmness of this place surrounded us and followed the whole day. There are a lot of unique pieces of interior, dishes and clothes. Dont forget to use an anti mosquito spray before entering.

One of the best place to go in the old town history in Phuket. 🥹🥹

I visited Chinpracha House and Museum. It's a beautiful place. This 119 year old museum blends a mixture of both Chinese and European ancient life style. A well maintained mansion with a huge collection of historical items.

Nice maintained and well decorated old house. Good place to know the local tradition. 1 star deduction is because they charge foreign visitors 150 baht yet 100 baht for local visitors.

Ok, shows an early xx century residence with a few interesting pieces, tickets are 150, doesn't take long to see

Pleasant experience with the family that owns this house. I don’t exactly remember his name but he’s the great grandson of the man who built this house. He greeted me when I was wandering around by myself in the house and offered me to explain the house and everything about it. Location wise, it’s not hidden but it requires a little good-eye to find the entry into the housing compound. Sorry, I don’t remembering exactly how much was the entry fee but I think it was around 150 THB. Just prepare some cash around that and 300 THB for one person, just to be safe.

Very attractive sino-Portuguese house. Lots of artefacts from the past of the family that lives there.

Historical place with many antique inside. An entrance fee of 150tbh was required and there will be a guide explaining the history and item around.

If you're thinking about going there, please DO!! Absolutely lovely mansion full of history and the owner was our guide and he explained every question we had and you can see his passion for this lovely family heirloom that he takes care of. For only 150 Bhat this is a amazing experience.

100 year old house of influential Chinese family. Tour guide was the 5th generation owner himself. He spoke very good English and was very thorough in explaining history of his family, the property and the large variety of displayed family heirloom. Very much worth the 150 baht entrance fee and highly recommended.

A big house with unique architecture. Pleased to be personally welcomed by the host, and introduced about the history of the house associated with family history

What a gems, thank you Mr. Pracha for your indepth knowledge about the history of Chinese migration to Phuket. As someone who were Malaysian but living in New Zealand now, I have a deep appreciation of how Chinese migrating in different times. This is one of the highlight while traveling in Phuket for me and my partner. Thank you for your time and generosity of sharing the important history that adds tremendous values to the tour likes this to me personally. You are a great orator and we thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope you would consider writing a book of the history that let's many future generations to enjoy and not to let those precious knowledge dissappear. Thanks again for opening up your home and educate people like myself who ancestors left China many generations ago and having you to share part of our history.

(Translated by Google) There are a lot of antiques to look at. When I went there, there were no people inside so I could fully admire. Ask to deduct one star as there is an entrance fee of 100 baht, but the inside area is quite small.

Located along a small but we'll signed laneway is this old residence. When I visited it was free for some event which I did not fully know or understand. There are a small smattering of highly decorative rooms downstairs to view but it's not that large or impressive compared to similar houses found in Malaysia and other locations. More written explanation would be very appreciated in the future

I love this shop. The Art have it's own character and differ from other places in Krabi but also everywhere else. The paintings are truly unique. The quality and finishing are superb and definitely worth the money. Ordering a picture and sending overseas is also possible by the artist Dao, who is a really nice person, kind and proud of her art.

Dao is a kindred spirit, one of a kind artist who's work speaks to the kind hearted person she is. We played music, she sang beautifully and all the while we admired her artwork. Thanks Dao. Sent with love, Chris from Canada :)

Beautiful art gallery! The artist was in the back to talk to us and some of the pieces were simply amazing! Definitely worth checking this place out!

If you are Ao Nang this is a gallery not to be missed. Such an explosion of colors and joy. The artist herself is a walking talent and joy source. We did henna tattoos handpainted by her and they turned better than on the photos we came with. Prices are really good!

Great drawings! Must go inside and check her masterpieces!! I walked by so many times but today I decided to check other pictures inside and so amazing! Very creative and wonderful drawings!

Lovely peranakan house, still in the same family since its creation in 1903. Super friendly owners, a treasure trove of memories, historical artefacts and just cool memorabilia. Great experience!

Very nice works.

Mind blowing art... A must see painting gallery

An amazingly well preserved example of Sino-Portuguese architecture, built in 1903. The interior of the house is set up similarly to how it was 100 or so years ago. Tan, the owner, will give you a free tour if he is around. Tan is a fifth generation Hokkien immigrant; his great-grandfather built it. It was very interesting to learn about the combination of Chinese, Portuguese/European, Thai and Malay influences on Phuket's architecture, furniture, clothing, food and culture, especially from a Thai-Hokkien perspective. Entry is 150 baht.

This historic building and the owner are a must see. Very kind and well informed person who took his time with us and showed us everything. Even got a chance to meet his 85 yr old mother. Wonderful couple of hours spent there

Lovely historic house with friendly and helpful staff. Reccommend for those looking for hidden gems in Phuket.

A historical local mansion to experience Phuket Old Days , we were welcomed and guided through the house by the owner, who is friendly and very kind to give us historical information about their ancestors. Charming ! Good to drop a visit on a rainy day. Fee 100 baht (as of july 2022)

Also experience being able to see the local architecture. My friend and I were the only people there at the time and as we were walking around a sweet gentleman approached us and asked if we had any questions. He was the 5th generation owner of the house and had a wealth of knowledge about his family, local history, and all the unique items in this mansion. Great little side visit totally worth the entrance fee if you are into history or just seeing interesting things.

Everything is good and beautiful for an old house with full decoration like unique Phuket style that makes me think of my grandpa’s life. But they charge local people 100฿ and 100฿ more for my traditional clothes (Baba-Yaya). I think I give them honor and it will make the house more famous with our nice photos to share on social networks. Unfortunately, I was wrong!

Anyone who wants to plunge into history a little and replenish their instagram with atmospheric photos, I advise you to visit this Mei Lian Cafe at Phuket Town. Amazing interior, good selection of drinks and desserts. Here you can taste Local Phuket Khanom - a little piece of history and have a good time. Design in Peranakan style, the building was built in 1903. Tasty, beautiful, interesting and informative. Plus, before 16:30 pm you can visit the museum and plunge into the history of Phuket.

Beautiful house and insightful tour in English from the current generation of the family. Finished off with a delicious iced dessert.

(Translated by Google) Is an old place, harder to find (Original) เป็นสถานที่เก่าแก่หาดูยากขึ้น

1903 built house in Chino Portugese style Current owner is 5th generation of the original descendant House is well maintained

I stumbled upon this place while walking around Phuket town. The owner of the house gave us a tour, he was very informative and it was a really great pleasant experience! He speaks English well and he goes into much detail and history over the design of the house, the furniture, and the historic paintings and photos. Would definitely recommend. There is a small fee to tour the place, definitely worth it.

We had a fantastic tour by the owner of this incredible house. His knowledge of the house architecture, the history of the family, and the Chinese inhabitants was incredible. Without doubt our favourite tour in Phuket

A wonderful look back at Phuket's past, including many old family photos as well as fine furnishings. Admission was 100 baht (I'm a foreigner).

Our hotel and guide book both recommended a visit to this historic mansion and it was certainly well worth the time. After we had been looking around the property for a short time on our own we were greeted by the 5th generation lady co-owner of the house who offered to give us a guided tour. She was so lovely and incredibly informative about the history, design and structure of the house, and related many fascinating pieces of information and explanations about objects, photos, and furnishings. She was a very engaging and entertaining guide and is clearly very proud of the wonderful heritage she is part of today. Do not miss this when you are in Phuket Old Town.

Must visit place to learn about Chinese immigrants that came into Siam Traveling from Malaysia. Must take a guided tour, I got one from the great great grandson of the gentleman who built the house. Also they have a cafe on site with delicious coffee and Chinese sweets!

One of A must to visit as a living History place in Phuket. Weekdays is better choice.

We han an amazing time and experience at the museum. It was such a great cultural insight. The architecture is so amazing and beautiful. We hight recome you come and visit this museum if you love history and architecture. Really a beautiful and peaceful place.

Nice old house with lot of history.

There were some interesting pieces of furniture but without a tour it didn't seem to mean much to us. The architecture of the house is special, as is the history. But it's all very small and dusty and over very quickly. It cost 100 baht to enter and we had to take our shoes off.

Some fine pieces of art

Nice place to visit, lovely arts.

We had the chance to meet the artist and experiment her art

A great place to stop by to enjoy some art and possibly bring something home with you. During the day, you can see the artists at work. Very colorful paintings and friendly staff.

Amazing atmosphere at night, especially the swimming fool... I really enjoyed this hotel and I will definitely recommend to others.

We were charged 150 THB per person for entry. Only the first floor of the house was for viewing. The interiors were ornately furnished and there were many antique knick knacks inside. But this museum falls short when compared to the Peranakan houses/museums in Penang and Melaka, due to a lack of display labels, explanatory brochure or tour to explain the culture and items on display. It's a nice place to see some pretty furniture/furnishings but don't expect to understand much about the Peranakan culture from a visit.
