Within the Chan Palace, you will also find a museum that explains the history of the place, how they discovered the ruins, and showcases the importance of one of the greatest kings of Ayutthaya, King Naresuan.

The museum opens from 9 AM to 4 PM every day EXCEPT on Monday. The entrance is free, and inside, you will find a wealth of information about Phitsanulok and how it played a role during the Sukhothai and Ayutthaya periods. It is also a great place to escape from the heat and rest a little inside the air-conditioned museum hall.

Once you are done, be sure to also walk a bit north from the museum and go and pay respect at the Chan Royal Palace, a palace where King Naresuan, who ruled the Ayutthaya Kingdom from 1590 until 1605, was born.
