Jim Thompson House

The Jim Thompson House is a museum in the former home of the American silk merchant Jim Thompson, who assembled it in 1958-59 from six traditional teak houses, most brought from Ayutthaya, beside the Saen Saep canal. It shows his collection of Buddhist sculpture, Thai paintings and Chinese porcelain, and the main house is seen on guided tours.
