Baan Dam often called Black house or Black museum is a museum with a difference, as many of the objects are related to death or dying.

There is also, to be fair, some grand scene carving, some furniture, and other collectors' piece. *This place is included in the itinerary only if you select a tour option that explicitly features the "Black house"
