Step into a world of elegance, mystery, and craftsmanship at iconic Jim Thompson House in Bangkok. Once home to legendary American entrepreneur who revived Thailand's silk industry, this teakwood haven remains one of city's most captivating landmarks.
Thompson's achievements during his 25-year stay won him fame as "Legendary American of Thailand." Since his mysterious disappearance in 1967 in Malaysia jungle, little has changed in the home that was talk of the town and city's most celebrated social centre.
Explore stunning collection of Southeast Asian art and antiques, perfectly preserved in traditional Thai setting. This complex of seven Thai-style teak houses was constructed by combining multiple Thai homes, creating fine example of authentic architecture surrounded by ornamental gardens.
