10 Best Museums in Bangkok

"The granddaddy of all Thai museums, the Bangkok National Museum was the first National Museum in Thailand; today it's home to the most extensive collection of Thai artifacts and art in the country. Located on the grounds of the Grand Palace, the museum, which was built in the late 1800s, consists of numerous buildings, each housing different types of art. Three permanent exhibition galleries, all with sculptures and artifacts, have their own themes: a Thai History Gallery, an Archaeological and Art History collection, and a Decorative Arts and Ethnological Collection." - Katie Lockhart
