Bangkokian Museum, in Bangrak area. This was a great stop--awesome old house with furnishings from the 50s-60s. The octogenarian professor woman who left the house to the City was on site when we visited. We had to turn back from the Grand Palace in the Old City for fear of being crushed by tour groups, so we trekked out to this place instead. Low key, middle class house with a photo display history of immigration to the area (written mostly in Thai) --the throngs should be going here (but we were glad they weren't).
