I went alone. So kind of spooky after a while. But good Thailand history. And more than enough crime documented. Right down to pictures of the deceased, and the murder weapon. Interesting, but not for everyone.

It’s not your average museum and that’s the point. You’re getting honest displays of th...

All three museums have some interesting stuff but lots of dead bodies and babies in jars. So if you don’t mind seeing that this place is for you. It also has a bit of a hospital smell. I’ve added some pictures of the exhibit that...
