  Ban Khamthiang

 

Thailand

Ban Khamthiang is a 175 year old authentic Thai teak house located in Bangkok, and which serves as an ethnological museum under royal patronage (fig.).

 

Though most roofs are decorated in the northern Lan Na-style, i.e. with a kalae (fig.), some buildings also have roofs in the style of central Thailand, i.e. decorated with a hook or antefix (fig.).
