Naval Museum, Samut Prakan

If you’re into military history you’re fine this very interesting. They have a tour guide who goes around with you. Basic information only. Kids would also enjoy. Can be done in 40 minutes or less.

The Naval Museum in Bangkok can only be described as a weird, hidden and interesting spot. Definitely one of the more wacky places Ive been. Strangely enough it’s really easy to get here, so I have no idea why it is so quiet. It is right outside the Royal Thai Naval Academy BTS station. The grounds have some planes and tanks, which make for an interesting pic, and they have a running track all around which I guess is for active naval personnel. Inside there are several buildings and rooms you can explore. You get an informational pamphlet too which explains the different rooms. Some examples are the gun room It’s a little far out from the city center, but if you are going to be around that area then I think it’s worth an hour of your time.

Small museum with limited exhibition. I'm not sure if guided tour is provided to all. But for me, the staff guided and explained all, which was very helpful.

It's a small museum compared to many country's Naval museums I've visited, but worth the trip out of Bangkok particulary if you combine it with the Erawan museum one stop on the BTS. It's free to visit and you can get a small leaflet in English which gives some description of what can be seen in each area. A variety of things have been thrown together to form this museum including military uniforms, royal barges, military hardware, models of ships and old black & white photos. It also has Thailand's first lighthouse, the glass housing. Very convenient to visit as right next to BTS station. I was actually the only tourist visitor there throughout my stay.

Wonderful tour Friendly staff Thank you all
