About
クイックファクト: 薄暗い廊下を抜けると木と古布の温かい香りが漂い、光と影が織りなす室内の迷路のような美しさが訪問者を包む。館内には約200点のアンティーク織物が収蔵され、繊細な絹の織りや鮮やかな染色が驚くほど良い保存状態で残っている。
ハイライト: ここの面白いところは、6棟の古い木造家屋を渡り廊下でつなぎ合わせた建築で、午後の光がチークの床と壁を赤茶色に染めて、池の鯉が水面をパシャパシャと鳴らす音が静けさを破ることだよ。もう一つの驚きは、オーナーが集めた東南アジアの彫刻や手織りのシルクが所狭しと並んでいて、1967年に起きた彼の謎の失踪にまつわる小さな展示がひそやかに語られている点だよ。
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, wooden floors and narrow steps can be uneven.
- Bring a hat and sunscreen for short outdoor sections in the courtyard and garden.
- Ask the guide for the best photo spots, especially the central teak living room and the raised walkways.
- Arrive for the first tour after opening to avoid larger midday groups and the heat.

4.3Arrived at 8:30am with almost no line. The guided tour included in the 200 THB fee was excellent, and the teak house is stunning, though the shop felt pricey.
On a budget the 200 THB entry felt steep and the silk shop is overpriced, yet the architecture and guide anecdotes still made it a decent stop.
Late afternoon visit, small group tour and great stories from the guide. Photos are limited indoors but the peaceful courtyard made the 200 baht worth it.
Came around noon, very crowded and hot. Entry about 200 THB, tour felt a bit rushed but the garden and antiques made it worthwhile.
