via Bangkok Post, 21 October 2021: The Phra Pathom Chedi National Museum reopens after a three-year renovation.

Once a thriving trading hub on the banks of Tha Chin River, the ancient town of Nakhon Pathom is home to a slew of historical ruins and temples reminiscent of pre-historic human settlements and the Dvaravati civilisation.

To commemorate its 50th anniversary, the Phra Pathom Chedi National Museum has reopened its doors following a massive three-year facelift, with a new display of 260 rare artefacts from the Dvaravati era (6th to 11th centuries), which is attracting day-trippers interested in Thailand’s rich cultural legacy.

Back in the reign of King Rama V, HRH Prince Damrong Rajanubhab served as the Interior Minister and travelled around the country to enhance the landscape. Nakhon Pathom was added to the list after numerous artefacts like a Dvaravati inscription and Buddha images were discovered during the construction of a rail line.
