A Glimpse into the Past: A Journey Through History

This captivating space aims to be a beacon of learning for future generations, breathing life into the past and showcasing the lifestyles of a bygone era.

Step into a world where history comes alive, where you can experience the essence of a time long gone.

Beyond the invaluable collection of artifacts, this remarkable site boasts a stunning array of architectural marvels, from colonial-style buildings to ancient houses.

Let's embark on a journey through time, exploring each section in detail.

The Prasenchit House

For those who are familiar with or frequently pass by the Si Phraya area,

there is an old house at the corner of Nares intersection with Si Phraya Road.

I think many people might be familiar with this old house.

It is the legendary "House No. 301" on Nares Road that everyone is looking for.

The relocation of this traditional house is considered a significant undertaking.

The meticulous attention to detail is evident.

Reassembling the entire house to its original state is no easy feat.

Driven by the owner's unwavering commitment to preserving its authenticity,

the process demands a gradual approach and highly skilled craftsmanship.

The highlight of the Prasenchit House is that it is a golden teakwood house throughout.

Here, they have kept all the original equipment, except for what is damaged.

But for the most part, they have kept everything original, including the house plan and design.

As for the interior decoration, it will focus on the same era, adding a sense of immersion for visitors.

Another cool feature is that the rooms are interconnected by a narrative, making the house feel like a living entity.

The interior includes a living room, a billiard room, a study, bedrooms, and more.

Each room features popular equipment and utensils from that era.

It also showcases the chronological evolution of printing techniques from the past, allowing visitors to experience them firsthand.

The first room is a grand foyer with a large living room set. A mahogany coffee table from Vietnam rests on a hand-woven Persian rug. In the adjacent room, a magnificent grand piano takes center stage.

Next is the study room.

I must say that the attention to detail here is very satisfying for history lovers.

Each room is arranged in a very real way. When you come here, it's like another world.

You really feel like you're a person from that era. For example, in the study room, there are books, Western textbooks, etc.

arranged in openwork wooden cabinets. The office equipment is really retro!

The second floor houses the bedrooms and a relaxation area.

The bedrooms and dressing room feature contemporary furnishings, including a stunning Western-style teakwood bed.

The right side features folding screens adorned with portraits of important figures.

Everything here is a collectible, and there are a lot of them!

This is just a mini-review of the place.

If you want to experience it for yourself, I highly recommend it. The instructors will help you out.

You'll gain knowledge and be entertained at the same time. It's a lot of fun!

This building is a true architectural gem, having been awarded the Outstanding Heritage Building Award by the Siam Architect Association under Royal Patronage. It's no wonder this is a highlight of Villa Musée!

And there's more! Next up, we have the...

Kosha Heritage House

A unique example of Sino-Portuguese architecture, this building is a testament to the colonial era's architectural prowess.

Beyond its stunning exterior, the interior boasts equally impressive features, including an ornate cast-iron spiral staircase dating back over a century.

Or perhaps a stained glass window from the 19th century CE.

They really went all out with these acquisitions.

If you add up all the collectibles, it's probably over ten thousand years old. 555555


Furniture is not worth mentioning. Although this place may look more modern,

it is just as old as the Prasat Prasenjit. The wooden furniture, the pearl set,

and the 1885 bar decoration all add to the feeling of attending a noble banquet.


This zone will also feature rotating exhibitions.

...

Another highlight of Villa Musee is that all visitors will receive a Mini Tea Set, which includes snacks and refreshments.

#Ranad sound Haaaaaaaaaa

Let's continue. As I mentioned, Villa Muse's awesomeness doesn't stop there.

The next zone we'll explore is a secret area accessible only to guests.

Because they prioritize privacy for those staying here!


Starting with the first Thai house,

Satyadipatai House.

The area here is located behind the Phra Sunthon Chitralada Palace.

The red Thai house that we are familiar with from watching TV as children.

I feel like I'm a nobleman. 55555

The front of the house features a pond, a Vietnamese pavilion, and a marble-decorated living room set.

Just opening the door is beautiful. It's amazing!

This house has been converted into a guest room, which emphasizes a contemporary style.

The owner has successfully combined their love of retro style with modern elements.

Let's go upstairs and take a look.

The Unique Charm of Each Room

The highlight of this accommodation is the distinct concept of each room. No two rooms are alike, showcasing meticulous attention to detail.

The upper floor features three rooms: R.LENZ, J.THOMSON, and F.CHIT. These individuals were prominent figures in the early days of Siam.

R.LENZ: Experience Siam through the lens of Robert Lenz. This room is adorned with intricately carved Thai-Chinese wooden furniture.

J.THOMSON Room: Siamese Refinement Through the Lens of John Thomson

This room showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of traditional Thai furniture.

It is a fusion of Thai wisdom and architecture.

This is a rare opportunity to experience the authentic atmosphere of Siam.

The translation of the provided text is:

Room F.CHIT: The City of Siam from the Eyes of a Siamese Photographer named "Francis Chit - Luang Akat Niyomitr"

The Mini Library is a miniature library that collects large antique books.

And there is a nice corner by the window to sit and read a book.

A stunning view from the top of the house.

The lower level consists of four rooms: LARNAUDIE, BATAVIA, MALACCA, and BANGKOK.

These rooms represent significant destinations for travelers in the South China Sea region.

The LARNAUDIE Room: A Historical Gathering Space

The LARNAUDIE Room evokes the ambiance of a common room, a central space where people can gather and relax. Its décor features a unique blend of antique furnishings from Thailand, China, and the West. The highlight of the room is the century-old wooden floorboards, adding a touch of historical charm.

The Batavia Room: The Enchanting Charm of Southeast Asia's Former Dry Trade Economic Hub

A nostalgic journey through the port city of Batavia, highlighting the artistic and cultural influences of England and India during the colonial era.

Drawing inspiration for your room's decor.

The MALACCA Room: The Enchantment of Southeast Asia's Multicultural Society

Featuring unique Chinese furniture, giving you the feeling of being in an ancient Chinese house.

BANGKOK Room: A Journey Through Time in the Metropolis of Siam

This room highlights the traditional Thai concept of space division.

Folding doors are used to partition the space, while the design draws inspiration from the traditional Thai house.

The bathroom is distinctly separated from the living area, taking cues from the design of ancient gun turrets.


The walking path in Villa Musée is extraordinary.

It transforms the space to create an atmosphere that is truly immersed in nature.

The other pavilion is the Rajapongsa Pavilion.

Its highlight is the wooden house with a mixed architectural style of hip-and-gable roofs.

It was built during the reign of King Rama IV of the Rattanakosin Kingdom in the community behind Wat Anongkaram.

We did not explore this part, just stood and looked from afar. 55555


The final section is the Thai-style villa, which is a whole house.

Singhalasakorn House

The twin Thai house with Pakon pattern from Suphan Buri. The highlight of this place is not only the beauty of the architecture.

The interior is also designed in a way that applies local wisdom.

It is a high-ceilinged building that increases the space to be more airy and comfortable.

The carvings are also very delicate and powerful. It can be said that it will definitely fill everyone's holiday in a very smooth way.


In conclusion, we believe this place is very interesting for those who are looking for new tourist attractions.

As mentioned, it is an educational site, focusing on historical events.
