We know, museums are usually a yawn-fest, but the Museum Siam (4 Sanam Chai Rd., Phra Nakhon. 02-225-2777. Open Tue-Sat 10am-6pm) can definitely help change that perception. Set in a colonial-inspired building with a state-of-the-art light and sound system, Museum Siam is a far cry from dimly-lit corridors and dusty exhibits. As an example, take their permanent exhibition, The Riang Kwan Pratade Thai (Essays from Thailand) which is an interactive journey through 3,000 years of Thailand’s history spread over 17 rooms. If that’s still a bore, check out the quirky, yet educational temporary exhibitions like Tales from the Loo (through Apr 17) and Thai Numerals Exhibition (through Apr 30).
