The Jim Thompson House Museum is a fun and interactive museum located in Bangkok, Thailand. The museum spans one rectangular rai and was built in 1959 by American businessman and architect Jim Thompson. It houses his impressive art collection consisting of historical Buddhist statues, traditional Thai paintings, white and blue porcelain from China, and artwork from Burma, Cambodia, and Laos. Visitors to the museum can experience guided tours which will take them through homes collected from various parts of the country and enjoy Thompson's art collection from the 1950s and 60s. With its mix of contemporary and Asian art, the Jim Thompson House is not to be missed!
