Nai Lert Park Heritage Home

Nai Lert Park Heritage Home (Thai: บ้านปาร์คนายเลิศ) is a 14 rai (2.2 ha) park, heritage home, and museum in Bangkok, Thailand.[1] Located in Pathum Wan district, the home was designed and built in 1915 by developer Nai Lert, and the park is considered to be the oldest in Bangkok.[2] The home was constructed in a bungalow style with teak left over from the construction of American and Danish ocean liners, along with ships for the Royal Siamese Navy.[3] The museum was reopened to the public in 2016, after years of renovation.[4]
