If you need peace, quiet and some time to read your book in privacy, then Em Space is the perfect escape. This private library belongs to a book lover who transformed her house into a reading haven for like-minded individuals. The library features a wide selection of books in Thai, English and Chinese. Feel free to cuddle up with books in one corner, play boardgames in the backyard or feast on homemade drinks and snacks in the onsite cafe.

Hidden in the lower level of the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre (BACC), the Art Library is where thousands of art books have found a home. The space, bathed in warm natural light, offers a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere for indulging in a good book. There’s also a kid’s corner where children can get their first glimpse of the art world.

The Pridi Banomyong Library is the one and only underground library in Thailand. Taking up four underground levels of a historic site by the Chaophraya River, the library is praised for having one of the country’s most comprehensive collections of textbooks, journals, and, most importantly, written resources related to the Thai political history.
