A lacquer pavilion more than 450 years old is the most striking building at Suan Pakkad Palace (วังสวนผักกาด), a cluster of traditional Thai wooden houses joined by covered hallways. Together the pavilions are considered one of the best examples of traditional domestic architecture in Bangkok. That makes the museum a natural stop for anyone interested in how Thai homes were built and lived in.
The name translates as "Cabbage Patch", and the palace was once the home of Prince Chumbhotbongs Paribatra and his wife, who converted it into a museum that opened in 1952. Inside the houses are Thai antiques, including Ban Chiang pottery more than 4,000 years old, and the Marsi Gallery shows further artwork. The museum stands on Si Ayutthaya Road, south of the Victory Monument.
