Since the establishment in the year 1995, Aran Chansiri, the establisher of the museum, wanted people to learn about important history as much as possible. Therefore, beside of the history of World War 2, there are also exhibitions of Thai-Myanmar history. These exhibitions aren’t ordinary. They’re something like bombs, old money, old vehicles, and lots more.

If you have children, you can take them there. That will be good. They will learn about what became in the past. That can help them with their education at their schools and they can even apply the new knowledge to their real lives.
