This former palace is built on the site of a former cabbage farm. It’s comprised of a number of buildings formerly located all over Thailand and moved to Bangkok. The Suan Pakkad Palace is a unique gem. Not as popular as many of the big sights, but quite unique, is this collection of various Thai regional styles of buildings brought together to house a collection of various interests. This museum is part open-air museum of the home of the former owners, Prince and Princess Chumbhot, and part display of their various collections of musical instruments, stones, shells, puppets, and more. The gardens are also a nice way to take a break from busy Bangkok for a bit.
