See Bangkok and Thai history from a different perspective at Museum Siam’s “THAI DIALOGUE: FOREIGN QUOTE” exhibition. 🇹🇭👀 Rather than telling history from only one point of view, the exhibition explores how travelers, merchants, missionaries, explorers, diplomats, and scholars from overseas saw and recorded life in Siam—from everyday food and customs to the arrival of new knowledge, science, and ideas. Their observations offer a fascinating glimpse into what Thailand was like centuries ago, while also showing how encounters with “strangers” helped shape the Siam we know today. If you're an expat looking to understand Thailand beyond its famous temples and tourist attractions, this is a great place to discover the country through the eyes of the people who encountered it from the outside.
📍 Location: Museum Siam, Bangkok
💰 Price: Free admission to the temporary exhibition on the 1st floor only
🕒 Opening Hours: 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM | Closed every Monday
🚗 Transportation: MRT Sanam Chai
