Took a Dinner Cruise on the Wonderful Pearl from River City. The shops are decent. The River Cruise goes passes by a couple of landmarks lit up at night. The buffet on the boats is plentiful but food is so so. Decent experience for the price.
We Went on the boat tour with a buffet dinner it was a good time they played live music and danced
River City Bangkok has some of the most impressive and unique art exhibits. This place is a haven for art lovers. The basement of your souls, the darkness, and the journey of rock were all amazing exhibits that made you think and emotional. We visited weekday morning. So it wasn’t as crowded. Tj were are restaurants and ferry to ride as well.
This heritage building (gallery) is a perfect combination between the Thai legacy and the present & future of Thai Contemporary Art. Just pay a visit and explore the beautiful of the gallery space with or without any art obsessions is perfectly splendid.
The Bangkok Art and Culture Centre is a dynamic hub showcasing a diverse range of artistic expressions. Its contemporary architecture complements the innovative exhibits within. With a commitment to fostering creativity, it serves as a cultural focal point. While some areas may benefit from additional maintenance, the overall impact as a creative space is significant. Whether you're an art enthusiast or just seeking cultural exploration, the Bangkok Art and Culture Centre offers a compelling journey through Thailand's vibrant artistic landscape.
When I went, the main exhibit was the winners of a national painting contest. It was exactly what I hoped to see in my heart of hearts - contemporary (but not conceptual) work from talented local artists with amazing local flavor, traditional art influence and meticulous technique and skill. I couldn’t have hoped for a better exhibit, wow!
I am not sure what is usually displayed in this museum but I got very lucky to see the show I did.
On another floor, there was a charming botanical illustration exhibit. And on another floor, there were various artisans selling handmade wares from jewelry to lotions & candles and clothing.
I would love to come here again for another exhibit.
Nằm trên tầng 7 của iconsiam, chỗ gọi là The Pinnacle, hiện giờ đang có triển lãm về Moscow Kremlin, khu trưng bày ko rộng lắm
They welcome you with a great smile and they are very helpful 😀 the exhibit is great and we saw a art turning into a marble glass. We went there some of the exhibit are under renovations but the art is amazing.
It was very enjoyable and educational to visit the BACC. We were so lucky to join a music concert held for an hour which was fascinating. You got a lot to see on each floor as there are different exhibitions for photos, paintings and sculptures. The architecture design of BACC is also worth paying attention. There are many cafes and stores as well so you can Shiah’s get a drink and enjoy the vibe. BACC is definitely worth spending a day to finish exploring all the halls and exhibitions.

Entrance fee: Free
Time spent: 6 hours
Entry is for free you just need to fill papers with your basic info. When I was there exhibition was only on top floor but is was well organised and interactive.
หอศิลป์สำคัญของประเทศไทย ตั้้งอยู่ภายในมหาวิทยาลัยศิลปากร มีงานนิทรรศการจัดแสดงอย่างต่อเนื่อง นอกจากนี้ยังมีหอศิลป์ของคณะต่างๆ บริเวณใกล้เคียง
The building itself is very well reconstructed, the space is very modern and airy.
I saw beautiful exhibitions on each floor, all of them very stimulating and thought-provoking. It was wonderful to see how young Thai artists see and think about their country and how they are able to portray it. I loved the visit! Thank you 🙏🏼❤️
เวลามีการจัดแสดงงานศิลปะ อยากให้เชิญชวนนักท่องเที่ยวเข้าชมบ้าง คนนอกทราบน้อยนะผมว่า ส่วนตัวไปบ่อยเพราะเป็นศิษย์เก่า อย่างฝรั่งเขาชอบอะไรพวกงานศิลปะ วันก่อนไปก็เงียบ ๆ ไม่ค่อยมีคน
Small gallery tucked away down a side street. It's a quiet place perfect for thought and discussion with friends. There are 2 buildings and 5 floors total. Some of the art I didn't really understand but that's what art does, it gets us thinking.

Friendly staff, good AC. Lots of cafes nearby
I was looking for some place to visit during the weekend and found this gallery randomly. I was surprised that this place is quite huge in side of Sukhumvit 39. Free of charge for the exhibition, quite and peaceful.
A/C-proof, or at least cooler than the outside.
Oh, and IT'S FREE!!!!!!!!!!
You'll only have to register at plenty of stations on every floor :)
Plenty of great art, though. The last floor specifically, all about the ASEAN association and community, is VERY well done. Temporary exhibits on lower floors are also very much worth it, with wonderful sculptures and great paintings. Very impressive exhibition designing all throughout.
I highly recommend!
