Khon Kaen National Museum

Good collections and exhibitions are not followed by any interesting elaboration.
Roi Er museum found it way more interesting. Not much of city history. I wanted to find more about the Chinese influences clearly visible all around city, not mention even most important sites like city pillar temple.... Disappointed

National museum of Khon Kean city.
A brief history from early history period until now. Overall brief details of Esaan ( North eastern) cultures. If you are historical nerd ???? like me shall enjoy.
Fee is cheap for Thais 20 THB. Foreigner 100 THB.

The collections of the museum is ok. But foreigners have to pay 100 baht while thai people pay only 20 baht. Some of the installations even don’t have English translation. Not worth paying it.

Starting point for comprehensive learning about community, culture, superstitions , habitats of people on Upper NorthEast thailand.chronologically, it's easy to navigate with red arrow signs on floors at the beginning to the end.

Very interesting the part of Isan life and ethnic . The rest if you have been to Ban Chiang Museum you will find it repeated.

Interesting, focusing to 3/4th strongly on pre-Thai settlements, culture, religion and economy. Such as Ban-Chiang, Dvaravati, Khmer and then the early North-Eastern Thai/Lao periode.

Situated few kilometers away from the city centre, the Khon Kaen national museum provides insights on the regional history, especially of KhonKaen and the province, Issan. The museum has a virtual guide to be used, so we can get information without the help of a translator.A bunch of artifacts were available and especially were useful to know the history of Buddhism and culture in Thailand. Foreigners should buy an entrance ticket
