Not only is it one of Bangkok’s most important art spaces, but the Jim Thompson Art Center itself is also a grandiose architectural masterpiece you need to see with your own eyes. This massive four-floor venue, designed in a tropical architectural style by Design Qua, incorporates countless bricks with patterns inspired by "mudmee," the Thai term for Ikat fabric.

In addition to art appreciation, you can relax at the Artzy café and then browse through the JTAC Museum Shop on the ground floor. The William Warren Library on the second floor is also utilized as a workshop space. Meanwhile, the third floor houses the main galleries, featuring exhibitions of artworks by local and international artists. Don't miss the top floor, where you can take in Bangkok vistas and unwind at the fun-loving Isaan restaurant, Larb Siab.
