Housed in a beautiful, recently renovated building on the Superhighway north of town, this Museum offers an interesting way to learn about the ancient Lanna culture. Downstairs, various displays document the history of northern Thailand from pre-neolithic times to the present. Included in the showcase are impressive bronze and gold jewelry, and actual ceramics excavated from the famous 14th- to 16th-century kilns of the old kingdom of Lanna. Upstairs, you can gain insight into the crafts and skills practiced in Lanna times. There are collections of farming tools, wood carvings, old photographs and textiles.
