Baan Chao Phraya Art Gallery is a heritage gallery in Bangkok, set inside a restored royal residence on the banks of the Chao Phraya River, on Phra Athit Road in Phra Nakhon. The building carries a layered history — it served as a royal residence, a home for Italian architect Mario Tamagno (designer of the Ananta Samakhom Throne Hall and Hua Lamphong Railway Station), a guesthouse for foreign dignitaries, and later the Provincial Police headquarters before falling into disuse.
PTT Group funded the full restoration and now operates the space as an art and learning venue. Exhibitions feature winning entries from the PTT Art Competition alongside rotating shows by established and emerging Thai artists.
The gallery also houses Café Amazon for Chance, a social enterprise café where hearing-impaired baristas work as part of an inclusive employment programme.
Accessible by Chao Phraya Express Boat to Tha Phra Arthit pier, and a short walk from Santi Chai Prakan Park and Phra Sumen Fort. Open Wednesday–Monday, 10:00–18:00 (closed Tuesdays and public holidays).

3 weeks ago💥 This is Bee's first artwork, the result of over 3 days of diligent effort! 🎨🖍️🖼️ 👨🏻🎨 Creator: Phichak Khemthong 🎨 Artwork Title: Life Force, Future Force 🖌️ Technique: Colored Pencils 🖼️ Size: 80*80*1.6 cm 💥 This is another big project, and his first time competing in the under-9 age group. I'm a little nervous about the outcome, but... I'm secretly hoping, very, very hopeful! 555+ Because everyone else's work is incredibly talented But I told my son in advance that the fact he put so much effort into coloring this is already amazing! 👦🏻🥰 💥 In any case, I commend his effort in creating this artwork himself, even though I drew it for him. Dad is always there to support him. 💋🧡 💫 Even though this victory isn't a prize or selection for the exhibition, it's still wonderful. But it's a declaration to Mom of the value of what's called 💢 "effort" 💢 in our child's coloring 🎨🖍️. Even if it's not as beautiful as if it were conjured up 🖼️, it's serving as a reminder of what hard work looks like 🤔. 🖍️ The sound of colored pencils scratching on paper 🧾 may be softer than the sound of a keyboard ⌨️, but on the day this artwork is unfolded 🖼️, the beautiful silence resonates in the hearts of everyone who sees it ⭐👍🏻. 🏻 Thank you, child, for your utmost effort. To make this piece "completed" ✅ July 23, 2026: Completion date 🖍️🖼️ July 25, 2026: Submission date 🖍️🖼️ September 6, 2026: Date to pick up the artwork 🖍️🖼️🏡 #PttArtAwards2026 🖍️🖼️ #LifePowerFuturePower 🖍️🖼️ #ChaoPhrayaArtGallery 🖼️ #PhraArthitRoad 🚗 #Bangkok 🚗
