10 Best Museums in Bangkok

"The Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) is a five-story museum with more than 800 works. The stark, modern building was created to look as though it was carved from one piece of granite; cascading jasmine designs on either side project natural light onto the atrium floor inside. There are several floors of permanent exhibits, plus seasonal shows (including, most recently, the elephant-focused "Legend"). The art isn't packed in, and there's plenty of room to admire one piece at a time." - Katie Lockhart

You will discover beautiful art spread across six floors of this museum. It is recommended to allocate at least two hours to fully enjoy your visit. The museum features intriguing paintings and sculptures created by Thai artists. After exploring, consider visiting the café. The best way to reach the museum is by using Grab. There is also a designated area to store your belongings if needed, and they accept credit card payments.

I visited MOCA Bangkok on a weekday and had a really great experience. There was no waiting time at all, which made the visit even more enjoyable. The entrance fee was around 300 baht (if I remember correctly), and it was definitely worth it. The collection is impressive — a wonderful mix of contemporary Thai and international artworks. I could take my time and really enjoy every piece. The museum itself is very comfortable, clean, and well-designed. There are plenty of chairs around, so if you get tired walking through the galleries, you can easily sit down and rest for a while. There’s also a museum store where you can buy some nice merchandise and souvenirs, and a café where you can relax and enjoy a cup of coffee after exploring. Overall, it’s a great place to spend a few quiet hours appreciating art. Highly recommended if you’re in Bangkok and love modern art!

One of the best surprises in Bangkok. The building itself is beautiful and full of light, and the collection gives a great overview of modern and contemporary Thai art – from huge, detailed paintings to sculptures and more experimental pieces. You can easily spend a few hours here wandering through the floors without feeling rushed or crowded. What I really liked is how calm and well organised everything is. The spaces are quiet, air-conditioned and very well maintained, with clear signage and friendly staff. It’s a perfect break from the chaos of the city and a must-visit if you’re even slightly interested in art or design. Totally worth the trip and the ticket price.

Amazing museum worth every penny. Can easily spend all day here, lots to see across many floors. Nice cafe too drinks are reasonably priced. We used Bolt taxi to get there, short wait finding a driver to bring us back during peak times.

The museum is worth the visit and i have no idea why I kept putting it off for so long. It is a 5 floor building with a great design. The works of art are worth contemplation and it is very easy to navigate the exhibitions. There was no wait but there were other guests. There are lifts and escalators which means anybody with limited ability can enjoy the museum. Toilets are available at each floor. You get to learn about Thai artists and appreciate their artistic paths. The tickets as advertised cost 300 or 150 if discounts are applied. Payments made in cash or by card. No food or drinks are allowed as mentioned on the website. Bags are left in the deposit. The staff were kind and informative. Overall, a great visit and you will enjoy it if you would like to learn about Asian art. If you have any questions, check the museums FAQ section before coming. Ps. Some reviewers miss the point. One mentioned staff were rude and only smiling people should be employed. With that logic, perhaps Thailand should only allow tourists who are courteous, kind, polite… and obviously fast 😉. Enjoy your visit.

Visited at 11 am on a Friday and not too many people there. This museum is very unique and unlike many others in the world. The pieces inside are a mix of sculptures and paintings and a lot of them tell you about Thai culture and history. There's a lot of foreign or international pieces too. The building is actually huge. It has 6 floors and the exterior is simple even though it houses so many beautiful works. Tickets are available onsite at 300 THB for adults. They have a cafe but I wasn't able to try it. They have a museum store as well.

Experience of a life time. Such an incredible collection of Thai and international art. Felt so special to be summered in the Thai culture. Last time here was more than 10 years ago, so happy to be back again. Worth every moment.

What a great art museum! Not huge, but a well-curated collection with diverse themes and mediums. Spent a very enjoyable 2 hours here. The works by Thai artists in particular was very impressive - my mind was just blown away by the creativity and imagination on display, as well as the incredible technical skill and talent. Not forgetting the architecture and decor of the museum itself. Highly recommend!! When I left the museum cafe was doing a bustling business - I didn't stop for lunch but the food looked great.
