My last destination is Jim Thompson Museum. Jim Thompson is an American Army (they believe CIA) who was later sent to Asia. He was sent to Bangkok as a military officer and fell in love with Thailand. After leaving his service, he decided to return and live in Bangkok permanently. He build a six teak building, which represented the best in traditional Thai architecture. On March 26th 1967, he disappeared while on visit to the Cameron Highlands in Malaysia and not a single valid clue what might happened to him. His house right now remains and become one of tourist destination in Thailand. It's a summary of what I heard from the guide inside. Entrance ticket 150baht per person. There're rules that we need to obey : 1. We can't wander alone inside, we should be guided by a tour guide. Choose between English speaking, Chinese Speaking, France speaking etc. 2. we can't take photos inside the building. But you can take pics outside the main building just like I did it. They have shops to buy souvenirs like their famous silk, bags, clothes etc.. Address
BTS National Stadium Station Exit 1
