The Suan Pakkad Palace is a combination of fine arts and ancient artifacts from the era of H.R.H. Prince Paribatra Sukhumbandhu, son of His Majesty King Chulalongkorn, Rama V and Her Majesty Queen Sukhumala Marasri.
The palace is the first in Thailand to be converted by its owners, their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Chumbhot of Nagara Svarga, into a museum. Built in traditional Thai style and occupying 6 rai of land on Sri Ayudhya Road in Bangkok, the museum opened in 1952. It houses their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Chumbhot of Nagara Svarga's collection of antiquities, which has been passed down through successive generations.
There are groups of four traditional Thai houses with the covered hallway between them. Houses 5 to 8 are located along the west side of the property. The Lacquer Pavilion stands in the main garden to the south of the compound. The Ban-Chiang Museum (Thai Heritage) and Marsi Gallery are in the Chumbhot-Pantip Centre of Arts.
