Forest Heritage Museum

An exhibition serving as a learning center on natural resources and the environment, which will take everyone to explore the grandeur of nature, reminding us that as humans we are merely small beings—just one of the two million species discovered so far—while believing that millions more on Earth remain undiscovered. Every life on Earth has a purpose to live and coexist. The Forest Museum is divided into 4 exhibition zones as follows:

       1) The balance of nature

The Balance of Life: Every living thing on Earth has a purpose to live and coexist. Our planet is endowed with diverse natural resources that are sufficient and suitable for all lives. His Majesty King Bhumibol Adulyadej The Great (Rama IX) recognized that natural resources and the environment are vital foundations for building and developing a sustainable, high quality of life for Thai people and society. He studied natural systems profoundly and understood the interdependence of all things, each of which has its role in nature. Soil, water, air, plants, animals, and humans all depend on one another. Therefore, he bestowed royal initiatives on natural resource and environmental conservation as a guiding path for Thai people to help protect and preserve our natural resources and environment.

       2) Sounds of Nature (Daytime Forest - Nighttime Forest)

Experience the atmosphere of the daytime forest, stealthily observing various creatures gathering under the banyan tree. Embark on a daytime jungle adventure to witness the cycle of nature and life across three types of forests: deciduous dipterocarp forest, mixed deciduous forest, and tropical rainforest, where every life form must adapt harmoniously and beautifully adds color to nature. Then, journey through a night trek, listening to the sounds of nature telling the stories of individual lives coexisting in balance—from tiny insects barely visible to the naked eye, to large animals like gaurs, and from microscopic fungi to towering trees, all intertwined in connected stories. Venture into the forest like a tiny human who respects the grandeur of nature, and discover the various creatures that forage by night.

       3) Embracing Royal Initiatives for Nature and the Environment

Forest is life—the life of plants, the life of animals, the life of humans. Therefore, every life should preserve and recognize the importance of natural resources and the environment.

       4) Returning to the Way of Nature

It is time for us to walk back to a balanced way of life as a living part of nature—one that has the duty to both receive and transmit natural energy to other lives, rather than just taking or taking too much.
