Lanna Folklife Museum

One of the better place to learn about Lanna culture and the past. Entrance fee cost about 100 baht, which is like x5 times the price of the locals but it is what it is. Lots of valuable exhibits with English and Chinese written description. Worth visiting of there isn't other better things to do.

Great overview of Lanna culture. Small but well organized with English and Thai explanations.

Not quite as interesting or as big as the Cultural Center across the street by the 3 Kings Monument, but still a nice historical look at Lanna culture in Thailand. The Cultural Center building is a bit nicer too.

I believe, if you are really ambitious, that you can get a pass and visit both in the same day at a discounted rate.

A nice little museum explaining the daily life of Lanna people. Best visited before setting to see Chiang Mai, will help to understand what those temple structures mean.

Very nice location and quite an interesting concept, but it turned out to be quite boring and monotone. Compared to amazing concept museum like Hall of Opium which costs like twice the ticket price but offers 10 times the value, this kind of felt like a waste of money and time. Or maybe I am not into boring museum in general ????u200d♀️

Love this museum ...
1. Informative about Lanna people.
2. The displays are well organised and rich in categories, from Lanna people daily life to sculpture and musical instruments. I found that the mural painting attract me the most.
3. We were lucky as we met students intern at the museum and offer us a tour (some of them are international students and they can speak English or Chinese).
4. And I guess the best part is that they have good quality (in term of translating) and quantity of English u0026 Chinese (plus Thai) explanation plates make the visit worthwhile.

Additional tips: You may be interested to find out the history of the building (the court house setting is still there in one of the room).
