Jim Thompson's House is one of the most visited museums in Bangkok. Its owner, Jim Thompson, was an American who went to Bangkok after the Second World War and who was able to live there by selling Thai silk to western countries.

During his stay in the city, Jim built his house of wood in traditional Thai style beside the canal. Today, his house is used as a museum which displays Asian art, antiques, crafts, as well as collection of Thompson's personal belongings.
