Bank of Thailand Learning Center
This is an open space located along the Chao Phraya River, which was formerly the bank of Thailand banknote printing house building. It consists of the Bank of Thailand Museum, King Vivattanachai Library, Archives, and recreation areas.
The Learning Center marks the opening of the door to “Bankchart”, the nickname by which the Bank of Thailand is known by most people. Through this door, we reach out to welcome visitors who are interested in learning about our roles and responsibilities, while exhibitions touching on economic history offer interesting lessons from experience of our forerunners who have successfully helped to steer the course of the Thai economy through a stable and sustainable path, their achievements as well as philosophy, would be inspiring to the younger generations and to future leaders.
