Price: 100baht/person to visit the exhibition hall. Mode: There are route 1 and route 2. I chose route 1 where the culture of Thailand will be shown. Time: It will spend 2 hours to complete the route because we have to follow the team and we will not be allowed to visit by ourselves. Language: Put a deposit of 1000baht, then we can have a translating machine (English). But, the machine cannot help when the tour guide is speaking in Thai. Even thought they will translate to English in the end, some of them will fail to do so. Overall, the tour guides are good because some of them will come to us just to explain to us in English. Knowledge: Can gain knowledge in the end because we were explained about the history and culture of Thailand from the King Rama I. Recommending level (65%): I would recommend the others to go when you understand in Thai or English and those who are interested in culture or history. Otherwise, you might feel bored because you are not allowed to visit faster than the team.

This was very very good. There are two paths to the tour. We took the path that has the simulated boat ride because the path with the rooms had one room under renovation. We went during the week, and since there were no other visitors at that time (hint for others), we were treated like vip guests. The tour was great, we could take our time, we could sit in the auditorium style settings anywhere we wanted, the tour guides were quite helpful and answered our questions--even took pictures of us with the props at the exhibition hall. At the end, going to the top and looking out over the city, we had a great view of a couple temples--Golden Mount & forgot the other one, where we took pictures and rested for like another hour. It was a fabulous view on a great day. I would recommend it for anyone especially during the week. ( it was 100 baht/person). Also, in December they are planning night at the museum style exhibition around the middle of the month, sounds interesting.

The building has two storeys, not including the mezzanine and the third floor at both ends of the building which serve as the viewpoints overlooking the city. The building has 4,800 square metres of floor space. Advanced technologies - such as presentation devices, models, four-dimensional multi-media technique, multi-touch and multi-media animation technologies- are used in presenting the exhibitions about Rattanakosin City through interactive self-learning devices. The content is divided into nine topics in nine halls (In phase one of the project, only seven halls will be open to the public. All nine halls will be open to the public in 2011). Besides the nine exhibition halls, the building also has a 300-square-meter Event Hall on the ground floor for artistic and cultural events organized by educational institutions and private agencies. The building also has a library, a souvenir shop and a coffee shop.

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Two routes (of 2h each) are possible to discover the different themed rooms (culture, vision, relation to the king, ...) The visit of the museum can only be done via those routes at fixed times. (Every hour or two) Guides will escort you through the museum rooms and provide explanations in Thai and English. An audio-guide is provided for a live translation in English of the displayed videos. Unfortunately the visit is restrained by the guides rhythm, too fast. We didn't have the time to watch or read all the contents. Although a lot of efforts have been put to create such a rich museum, it was hard for English speakers to understand everything. Staff would deserve more training. Speeches sounded like read from a book. At some point I would have prefer to have the time to read the signs by myself. For a more interactive/fun visit, I would recommend route #2.

Rattanakosin - the old name of Bangkok . ticket fee 100THB(promotion price) . Visitors msut join the tour session. Each tour seesion incluedes 2 routes . route 1: 7 exhibition rooms , route 2: 2 exhibition rooms. each route takes about 2hrs. visitors can choose either route 1or route 2 or both routes. All options are in same price. Tour guides are very friendly, they speak Thai and also explain in English to foreign visitors. Englsih audio guide are avaliable free of charge. visitor can deposit the passport to borrow. But the audio guide doesn't work very well. I took the route 1 tour session that mainly on all aspect of Gand Palace : history, architecture, royal life, royal ceremonies, etc. Involves display, viedo and interacrive. Very informative but so compact , and can't get much. The tour mainly aims to instill indentity of the country /government in Thai people .

Visited in 12 June 2022. This was the last tourist place in our itenerary on the day of return. We were late by 12 minutes for the last entry (3 PM last entry, 5 PM closing). Anyway, the Museum staffs allowed us with a quick briefing on first section and enabled us to join the last visitor group. Rattanakosin Exhibition Hall is a learning centre and source of information about the History, art, and Culture of the Rattanakosin era. It is a 4-story building with an exhibition of its history and profiles through the colourful media to tell various stories of Thai national history which consists of.. 1-Grandeur Rattanakosin 2-The Prestige of the Kingdom 3-Remarkable Entertainments 4-Renowned Ceremonies 5-Graceful Architectures 6-Impressive Communities 7-Visit the City (Sight-Seeing Highlights) 8-The Colourful Thai Way of Living 9-The Heart and Soul of the Nation
