This museum is really the only tourist attraction in town and a minor one at that! A 1km walk or a no.12, 17, or 21 pick-up ride from the city centre, it’s really only of interest to archaeological types or those who are into Buddhist statuary! Quite a few religious artifacts have been unearthed in the area (mainly 11th-14th century) and are on display here. The accompanying information is in English except in one of the two ethnology rooms where it’s all only in Thai! There are collections of ancient marker stones in the grounds outside the museum, some with interesting carvings and inscriptions.
It costs 30B to get in and the museum is open from 9am to 4pm Wednesday through Sunday. It helps to while away an hour or so, but it’s certainly not worth stopping in Khon Kaen for!
