M.R. Kukrit's Heritage Home

This stately wooden structure is the former residence of M.R. Kukrit Pramoj, one of Thailand’s biggest political and literary figures. In his lifetime, he was a prime minister, novelist, journalist and newspaper founder—and he excelled in all professions. Verdant greenery surrounds a complex of five traditional Thai teak houses connected by a single verandah. Since his death in 1995, M.R. Kukrit’s Heritage Home has been registered on the Ministry of Culture’s list of preserved architectural structures.
