19-Khun Phaen Houses

The Ayutthaya style house is modeled after the original Khun Phaen House located in Ayutthaya Province.From the description in the popular Thai literary work. Being finely built and decorated, the house most likely belonged to a well-to-do family, Khun Chang’s family, for instance. The structure is described in detail in the story of 'Khun Chang and Khun Phaen’, especially in the scene Khun Phaen climbed up Khun Chang’s house to see Khun Phaen’s wife who was forced to become Khun Chang’s wife while Khun Phaen went off to war. Khun Phaen House at The Ancient City was successfully constructed based on comprehensive research and studies on historical remains especially of the Thai nobles.
