M.R. Kukrit Heritage Home

A bit off the beaten path, across the street from Le Lys restaurant, this beautifully restored traditional Thai home consists of five teak houses, the oldest of which is more than 100 years old. The former private home of M.R. Kukrit, the country’s prime minister in the 1970s, the property is a stunning example of time-honored Thai design; it also has a lovely garden. Make sure you do some research on your own or come with a guide: there are very few materials in English at the museum. Opening hours vary; have your concierge call ahead.
