Kamthieng House - The Lanna Legacy In Bangkok

Kamthieng House, a traditional Lanna home in the grounds of the Siam Society in Soi Asoke Bangkok, preserves the 700 hundred year old Lanna architecture and culture from Chiang Mai, Northern Thailand.

"A million rice fields"

The Lanna (a million rice fields) Kingdom is an old 13th
century kingdom in northern Thailand, started by King
Mengrai in 1259 who established his capital in Chiang Mai in
1291.

Captured by the Burmese in 1550s, retaken by King Taksin in
1774, Chiang Mai became a vassal of Thailand until the reign
of King Rama V when it came under direct rule.

From this kingdom grew a society with a distinctive culture
and language along with its own traditions and customs, rituals
and festivals.

The family home on the Ping River

One such Lanna family steeped in these traditions were
descendants of a prince from Yunnan in Southern China who
migrated to northern Thailand. The matriarch Mae Nai Saed,
a great granddaughter of the prince, built the original
Kamthieng House in 1848 on the banks of the Ping River in
Chiang Mai.

In a matriarchal society, the Lanna women are heads of
households, own property and have rights of inheritance.
The family home was owned by three generations of
descendants, Mae Nai Thip, Mae Kamthieng and Mae Kim
Haw who lived in the house till 1963.

Making of a museum

The timber house, with its characteristic "Kalae" or 'V'
shaped wooden carving at the apex of the gable, is regarded as
one of the rare examples of traditional Lanna architecture and
art. To preserve Lanna culture for future generations, Mae Nai
Haw donated the house to the Siam Society as an ethnological
museum.

In memory of her mother Mae Kamthieng, the museum was
named Kamthieng House.

It took two years to plan, dismantle and move the old house
from Chiang Mai to be reassembled in the grounds of the Siam
Society in Bangkok. The Asia Foundation and John D
Rockefeller Foundation funded the project.

On 21 November 1966, His Majesty King Bhumipol Adulyadej
officially opened Kamthieng House.

Lanna culture

A tour of Kamthieng House gives the visitor an insight to the
Lanna lifestyle, rituals, beliefs, family life, culture, art and
architecture.

Lanna society practices animism, a belief in the presence of
spirits in natural objects and phenomena. Special rituals are
performed to appease these spirits before any family or
communal activity.
The Naga serpent is symbolic of water vital for rice cultivation,
the rice goddess influences the rice crop, a staple food and the
buffalo spirit affects the beast of burden working the fields.

Being an agricultural society there's a deep respect for nature
and the need to be in harmony with the elements. Ancestral
worship is also practiced as seen from the family ancestral
altar in the guest hall of the main house.

Weaving, a traditional Lanna craft is evident from the
beautifully embroidered fabrics in the bedroom, where
elaborately carved wooden lintels are installed above the doors
to protect the occupants. Talismans and amulets are also
popular forms of protection for individuals and homes.

The exhibits displayed reflect family and community life,
combining traditional displays with film clips to illustrate
cultural activities and recorded ritual chants in the
background to simulate realism.

Kamthieng House is a museum dedicated to preserving a
lifestyle from a culture that's almost 800 years old, providing
an interesting study in a traditional society that's fast
disappearing.




Kamthieng House is one of the traditional Thai houses you'll discover in Tour Bangkok Legacies a historical travel site on people, places and events that left their mark in the landscape of Bangkok. The author Eric Lim, a free-lance writer, lives in Bangkok Thailand and writes for this a do-it-yourself historical travel guide for independent travelers.

Fun For a Rainy Day

When visiting Sanibel Island, Florida, you will probably enjoy the beaches most of all. The crisp white sand is soft, the waves are calm and soothing, and the beauty is nearly breathtaking. Watching the sunset over the beach is something that you will remember for the rest of your life. When it's raining, the beaches are still beautiful, even as the wind whips the waves in fury. You can't exactly spend a day enjoying the rough weather, though, so you might want to consider other activities to fill your time.

Of course, many of the hotels offer indoor swimming pools just for such an occasion, and these are perfect for families with children that just can't get enough of the water. You might be able to entice them away, however, with a trip to the movies. Many people feel that they can see a movie anywhere, though, so why don't you suggest a live show instead? The BIG ARTS Theater on Sanibel Island may be exactly what you're looking for.

With 414 seats, the BIG ARTS Theater offers a cozy environment that won't be overwhelming. Every seat in the house is fantastic, offering views of the stage so that all can enjoy the action.

The theater often sponsors or hosts concerts that feature visiting choirs, bands, and other musical acts. The variety is amazing, with blues, soul, classical, and novelty acts offered on a fairly regular basis. By checking the BIG ARTS Theater calendar, you can make plans to attend a show while you're in town.

The theater is supported by projects and fundraisers throughout the year.

Summer Vacation in a Foreign Country

When visiting a foreign country there are some things that you should be prepared for. Also you must be aware that some things that you might find normal can be seen as odd or even inappropriate in another country.

Before visiting a foreign country you have to gather some information about the place that you are about to visit especially if it is a place far away. There are some countries that have different opinions on what is appropriate to wear and what not. For example, if you are going on vacation somewhere like Istanbul or Dubai or another country like these two then you should know that all your outfits should be decent and not too revealing.

There are some traditions and rules that every tourist should respect when visiting another country. Also, if you are going to Germany you should pay attention not to drop any of your litter on the street because you risk getting fined. They take cleanness very seriously and so should you.

Something else that you should research before leaving is what type of food you can find in those countries. There are countries where people are used to cooking really hot food like India for example. Or countries were different insects are fried and considered delicatessens. My advice would we for you to try as many traditional dishes as you can but try not to force yourself to taste anything that will make you feel sick afterward. Experimenting is fun but there is a limit for everything.

Most European countries have the Euro as their official currency but there are some countries that have other currencies. This is why you should find out what is the currency in the country that you are about to visit. Also, if you are going by car or by bus then you are bound to make several stops in different countries so you should have some money changed in those countries currencies.




The re-invention of the traditional English Inn; The Crown Amersham is one of Watford Hotels where not the rooms dominate, but where the common spaces are the heartbeat of the place.
