A favorite of children and Thai culture enthusiasts alike, the Bangkok Doll Factory and Museum houses
an interesting exhibition of hand-made dolls dressed in traditional
hilltribe costumes. The ornate dresses and traditional scenes
(Ramakien, monks, Thai-style houses etc) offer a unique view into Thai
art and living.
Witness an ancient craft in
practice as the dolls are being made in front of your eyes, and then
take a memento of the experience home after visiting the doll store. At
the time of writing, dolls cost 300-5000 Baht.
