Introduction

The Royal Barge Museum is located by the Chao Phraya River in Bangkok, showcasing the royal barges used exclusively by the Thai royal family. The barges are meticulously crafted, displaying stunning beauty and intricate details. One of the most significant barges is 46.15 meters long and requires 50 rowers to propel it. Adorned with sparkling golden bird-shaped sculptures at the bow, it is inspired by Thai legends. The museum also exhibits various exquisite barge artifacts. Though the museum has a relatively small collection, with only around 7 to 8 barges on display, each one leaves a lasting impression.
