Museum Siam:
It is located on Sanam Chai Road, Phra Borom Maha Ratchawang Subdistrict. It is the first learning museum under the National Discovery Museum Institute (NDMI) that focuses on creating a fresh experience in museum viewing. It was established as a model of a pleasant learning resource to help raise the standard of learning management in a new way for the people, especially Thai children and youth, about creating a sense of self-knowledge, and knowing about the neighbours and the world. It also creates a “new concept and image” of the Museum in a society of learning through modern technology and creative activities, so learning about history and stories is more enjoyable. This also includes the permanent exhibition of “Decoding Thainess”, rotating exhibitions and creative learning activities. The format of the permanent exhibition “Decoding Thainess” comprises 14 exhibition rooms using modern technology media and museum media that emphasises the interaction of storytelling that makes it enjoyable and fun throughout the visit. This presents the learning of Thai perspectives from the past and their development to the present in the aspects of history, culture, traditions, society, dress, food, architecture, etc. Furthermore, it displays the development of Thainess that has changed according to the social context from the beginning of Rattanakosin to the present.
