It took us a good fourty five minute stroll with few stops and a 15 mins ride in a small boat to be at Jim Thompson's Thai residence.
Yes Jim Thompson is the famous silk trader who brought the concept of boutique is believed to be an American spy too. He mysteriously disappeared in 1972 and has no trace after.
But left behind this beautiful heritage which is for public display of course at a price of 100 THB.
His house is literally a collection from different parts of the world, from Ayuthaya to China, Cambodia to Japan, even Italy
Thai customs blended conveniently with the western needs. Even though it is full of tourists, it felt great being there for the concept it is.
