The museum is about all maritime history of trading in Siam. With all vessels that have been used in Siam. It is located up at the mountain in the old camp fort called Neon Wong fortress which was built in 1834. King Rama III of Siam in Siamese - Vietnamese war campaign. You can explore the old watch tower and the old brick wall which there were still canons on the walls. One of interesting is the display that educated about underwater archeology of how/ history of old goods that were found under the sea bed in gulf of Thailand. The highlight is big model of junk boat 1:1 which people can climb up and learn how it operate in the past. And the last is the history of King Taksin campaign after the defeated of Ayutthaya. How he became the king of Siam in those time. Unfortunately some of the materials shows very old and not proper maintenance. Hopefully any authority will manage budget for support this for tourists and students have better place for learn.

The museum entrance fee was too high for foreigners so we walked the rampart for 1500 yards with cannon most of the way. Greatest number of cannon collection I have ever seen. The wall around the old city is mostly intact. Awesome history here and along the coast 30 minutes away. I just don't understand why they discriminate against visitors to their country and overcharge their guests who want to learn about their country. It is opposite of how the people and culture should be.

Very good museum. I spent 2 hrs inside read everything. My kids loved it so much especially the big wooden boat. The entrance fee only 20 THB for adult. Kids and elderly person are free.

With a 5x entree fee for non Thais (even with PR) this museum is best avoided. Thailand needs to revise it entry fee policy in line with international standards & distinguish between all residents & one time tourists, instead of all foreigners & Thais.
