H Gallery

Housed in a refurbished colonial-era wooden building, H is generally considered among
the city's leading private galleries. It is also seen as a jumping-off point for Thai artists

Neilson Hays Library
LIBRARY
The oldest English-language library in Thailand, the Neilson Hays dates back to 1922, and
today remains the city's noblest place for a read - with the added benefit of air-con. It has
a good selection of children's books and a decent selection of titles on Thailand. Non-
members are expected to pay a 50B fee to use the facilities.
