Bangkok National Museum

The Bangkok National Museum occupies the former Front Palace (Wang Na) of the vice kings, facing Sanam Luang, and traces its origins to a museum King Chulalongkorn opened in 1874. Run by the Fine Arts Department, it shows Thai art and history from prehistory to the Bangkok period, including the Ramkhamhaeng Inscription, and Buddhist art from across Asia.
