A Tribute to the Silk Man!🇹🇭

#timetotravel The Jim Thompson House is not just a museum but also a tribute to the man himself, Jim Thompson, who played a significant role in introducing Thai silk to the world. Jim Thompson, an American architect and former OSS (Office of Strategic Services) agent, settled in Bangkok in the 1950s and embarked on a mission to revive the Thai silk industry. My visit to the Jim Thompson House was a captivating journey into the heart of Thai heritage and the life of an extraordinary individual. From the beautifully preserved traditional house to the lush gardens and the informative exhibits, this hidden treasure offers a unique and immersive experience. Entrance Fee: 200 Bhat Address: 6 Soi Kasemsan 2, Rama 1 Road, Bangkok
