M.R. Kukrit's Heritage Home, Heritage museum and traditional garden in Sathorn district, Bangkok, Thailand

The complex consists of five assembled teak houses connected by wooden corridors, featuring traditional Thai architecture without using nails in construction.

The residence belonged to Kukrit Pramoj, Thailand's 13th Prime Minister from 1974 to 1975, who gathered the houses from rural regions over twenty years.

The reception hall contains a platform for traditional Khon dance performances, displaying ornate masks and ancient Buddhist scripture cabinets on surrounding shelves.

Located at 19 Soi Phra Pinit off South Sathorn Road, the museum opens daily from 10 AM to 4 PM with entrance fees of 50 baht for adults.

The garden incorporates Thai bonsai plants called mai dat, along with two decorative vases received as gifts from Chinese leader Mao Zedong.
