Reading the descriptions of the district's history has piqued my curiosity. I would be interested in understanding more about the peoples who lived here and the system of governance over time.<br />Although the posted hours said the museum would open at 9:00 a.m., it was still closed when I arrived at 9:30. A guard told me to return at 10:00 and it might be open then. I started to leave and had almost left the school grounds when someone ran after me to tell me that the museum was now open. I think the museum director had just arrived after finishing her Sunday morning shopping.<br />I wasn't asked to sign the guest register, which may account for the low number of visitors that you saw.<br /><br /><br />Rochellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09093589181879789435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66648653985842440.post-29275611793728066042014-10-12T02:56:23.940+02:002014-10-12T02:56:23.940+02:00Hello,

He knows about this through our grandmother, Somboon Sarayutpitag, who was a contemporary. Apparently in those days the whole cohort of students (of different ages) moved together.<br />Paul Traffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06180404719893389714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66648653985842440.post-22663068287445988932012-05-21T05:46:50.826+02:002012-05-21T05:46:50.826+02:00Thanks for your information, I am Thai Nation and ...Thanks for your information, I am Thai Nation and very good for you information, please visit my Thai Trip ---> http://seasonthaitravel.blogspot.com/http://seasonthaitravel.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66648653985842440.post-36212765415887798682011-11-08T17:05:35.750+01:002011-11-08T17:05:35.750+01:00Best I can offer is the contact info at the websit...Best I can offer is the <a href="http://www.firstmonkeyschool.com/contact.html" rel="nofollow">contact info</a> at the website of the monkey school, which also has contact email.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17710647861853833065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66648653985842440.post-35384487767326898842011-11-08T16:55:36.197+01:002011-11-08T16:55:36.197+01:00Great blog!

The nearest train station is at <a href="http://th.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B8%AA%E0%B8%96%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%99%E0%B8%B5%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%96%E0%B9%84%E0%B8%9F%E0%B8%A8%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A5%E0%B8%B2%E0%B8%A2%E0%B8%B2" rel="nofollow">Salaya</a>, with several trains coming from Bangkok stopping there. However, from there to the market its still more than 5 kilometer, so you'd have to catch a ride there - and there are much less taxis or tuk tuk outside Bangkok city. Maybe it has a Songthaew for the route, but that's just guessing. Probably the easiest way to go there without your own car is to hire a taxi for a day.Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17710647861853833065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66648653985842440.post-18581651043712144672011-04-19T07:35:20.701+02:002011-04-19T07:35:20.701+02:00Hi, May I know if we can get there by public trans...Hi, May I know if we can get there by public transport?

I have been to one in Sathun - a very small one. They made it like a swimming pool - cut all the trees, cemented the natural surroundings, and... well, I guess that's their idea of making it beautiful. If they just had a bit more "Japanese" sense for embedding it into a natural surrounding, it could be such a beautiful place.Koh Samui Travelhttp://www.kohsamuitravel.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-66648653985842440.post-9449512676284649402010-08-25T11:10:49.787+02:002010-08-25T11:10:49.787+02:00Andy,
