Thai Parliament Museum, Museum in Sappaya-Sapasathan, Bangkok, Thailand.
The Thai Parliament Museum is located in Sappaya-Sapasathan and displays documents, artifacts, and photographs that trace Thailand's political evolution from absolute monarchy to constitutional government. The exhibits are organized into sections that show how the country's legislative system and governing structures developed over nearly a century.
The museum was established in 1974 as part of a research and documentation service and has occupied different locations throughout Bangkok. Its current home in Sappaya-Sapasathan opened to visitors in 2019.
The museum displays how Thailand's government has changed over time through objects that tell the story of the country's journey from monarchy to democracy. You can see how different governing systems have shaped Thai society.
The museum is located behind the statue of King Rama VII next to Parliamentary Building 1 and offers free entry for all visitors. Weekday visits work best since the site operates Monday through Friday.
The museum holds personal belongings of King Prajadhipok, Thailand's first modern-era monarch. These private items offer a rare look at the life of the king who lived through Thailand's shift toward constitutional government.
