Sanctuary of Truth Museum

Gorgeous scenery. Lots and lots of good spots for photo taking. Walk in price is 500 bath, but it can go down to 365 baht if you booked online. Please be advised that you are required to wear something 'respectful', meaning you need to wear something of knees length. If the staff deemed your outfit to be inappropriate, then they have the option for you to buy or rent for (they'll return the deposit when you're done) skirts or oversized trousers of 200baht for you to wear on your duration of your visit. This place offers tour guide services for various languages: Thai, English, Chinese and Russian. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, but I'd say she was rushing the tour a little bit. Overall quite a pleasant experience.

It is an amazing wooden building that has deep messages for life. The guide is so kind and such an educated person. I forgot his name but I attached his photo along with the other photos. His way of explaining is so clear for everyone, and I feel as if I’m reading a philosophical book. The Museum building has so many details that are handmade professionally. Each and every detail has a meaning. Not one corner doesn’t have a meaning. It’s unbelievable. I think I’ll come again in the future to see the updates.

It’s not a historical spot to view, but very attractive and amazing. The museum started from the year 1981 and is still keep on making new constraints. There’s tour guides with different languages each hour which is included in the ticket. You can follow an one hour tour to get to know more about this place. Very nice experience of visiting

An interesting place to visit and explore. It looks like temple but actually it's a museum. It has so many wooden sculptures featuring many ethic, truth, social norms, and philosophy about the human life. You have to follow the guided tour first which will take around 45 min. Pam was our guide and she is very funny, energetic and knowledgeable. It is interesting to hear about the story of the owners (it's private property), the history and the meaning of different sculptures. You know, the story she told us is not all, I believe there are tons of different stories looking at the giant structure filled with different sculptures and they are still under construction. The museum is on the beach and definitely worth the visit. Though it is located a bit out of town, there are taxi there and you can also use Grab or Bolt.

The Sanctuary of Truth, wasn't sure what to expect here. But actually the building itself is magnificent, some of the detail and stories behind the carving. are an inspiration. Although I've had to knock a star off as when I arrived they could not take the card, phone pay and initially walked away thinking that I couldn't get in. Then after leaving the gate I thought about booking online which I did. Also none of the food or drinks counters took cards, or any electronic payment. But apart from that it's worth the visit just to see the building and the carvings taking place.

Magnificent master piece of wooden art enjoyed the views in every inch of elevations and interiors of the building. Recommend to book tickets prior arrival for discount prices and also take guide throughout the place they will explain the importance of this place and philosophy related stuff. Museum has Hindu and Buddist art depicting various idols, stories, philosophies, art, cultures and architectures. There is also the workshop place, elephant rides, small eateries etc. Viewpoint was awesome to take pictures loved the place❤️

A great experience. The structure is done using ancient Thai construction techniques which means not nails or bolts. Several different types of wood joints have been utilized in the construction process. The tour guide was excellent and spoke great English. All in all it was a great experience and the restaurant was also pretty good as well.
