About Prasart Museum

Prasart Museum offers you the opportunity to step back in time into the hushed tranquil atmosphere of years gone by.

Enter a charming garden of tropical greenery, exotic flowers and meandering paths surrounding authentic architectural reconstructions of supremely beautiful buildings representing the varied styles of Thailand's historical past.

The heart of these scenic and architectural splendours is Khun Prasart's private collection of priceless artifacts from Thailand's rich heritage lovingly displayed for your perusal and delight.

My Dream

The discoveries from various archeological sites in Thailand have made it clear that civilization has flourished in this area since prehistoric times. It is unfortunate, however, that many of our most precious objects have been taken abroad and have thus been lost to the country.

I strongly believe that such priceless reminders of our heritage do not belong to anyone in particular but to the whole nation and that they should be kept in Thailand where they can be cherished by future generations who wish to study what our ancestors achieved.

The Prasart Museum is the realization of my dream to house in one place prehistoric artifacts, Buddha images, statues of Brahman gods, pottery, Thai furniture, Thai paintings and Thai and Chinese porcelain as well as objects from other parts of Asia and elsewhere.

The treasures on display are chosen from amongst those I have collected all my life. I hope that they will give the same pleasure to the art lovers who come to visit the museum and study the collections as they have always given me.

Amazing Art Collection in Bangkok

★★★★★ Reviewed April 19, 2025

Reviewed on Apr 1, 2023

"We visited this private museum yesterday. Peter, who showed us around, was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable. We met the owner at the beginning and end of the tour - what a lovely quiet, unassuming and very accomplished person! We loved the lush garden setting and appreciated the fact that whenever shoes had to be removed to enter the typical Thai building, there were several garden seats nearby."

"What am amazing experience and collection of some of the best antiquities you can see while in Bangkok. Highly recommended and don't be turned off by the distance to the museum around 25 mins from central Bangkok. Will definitely return to see this priceless collection."
