Jim Thompson was an American silk entrepreneur and an avid collector of Asian art born in 1906. His keen eyes and flair for design breathed life into everything he touched. After his discharge from military, he decided to settle in Bangkok where he devoted over 30 years to revive Thai silk then a dying cottage industry and introduced it to fashion houses in Milan, London and Paris, gradually building a steady worldwide clientele. Today we will visit his former house set amid the lush garden. You will be enjoyed a various old Thai structures that Jim collected from all parts of Thailand in the 1950s and 1960s.


Visit the house of the late Jim Thompson, the American who revived the Thai Silk industry after World War II. This house – a perfect example for authentic Thai residential architecture and Southeast Asian art - consists of a complex of six traditional Thai-style houses, teak structures that were purchased from several owners and brought to the present location from various parts of Thailand. Construction of the Thai house was completed in 1959. A magnificent half-day, dedicated to one of the most remarkable achievements ever being made by a foreigner in Thailand, yet as mysterious his disappearance has been.
