ThailandDescription and is it worth a visit
King Prajadhipok Museum is little known among tourists and is rarely found in free guidebooks and maps, but it is worthy of the attention of tourists. Of course, you don't have to go to it from the other end of the city, but if you find yourself near it in the historic district of Bangkok on Ratanakosin Island, then it's definitely worth a look. Moreover, it is located in a very convenient location not far from other popular attractions, such as Temple of the Golden Mountain, for example.
As the name implies, it is dedicated to the life of King Rama VII Prachadipok. His reign was the shortest in the history of the royal dynasty, he led the kingdom from 1926 to 1935. He was forced to abdicate due to the transition of Siam to a constitutional monarchy as a result of the revolution. This historical period was one of the most intense in the life of the country, and it is about this time that the museum's exhibition tells. Among the exhibits there are personal belongings of the king, documents, photographs.
