Baan Chinpracha

Tour Baan Chinpracha in Phuket Old Town, a 1903 Sino-Portuguese home museum with terrazzo tiles, antique heirlooms, carved doors, and a quiet courtyard.

Baan Chinpracha is less “museum” and more stepping into a living chapter of Old Phuket. Built in the early 1900s, the house mixes Sino-Portuguese architecture with a distinctly Peranakan sense of home: patterned terrazzo floors, antique furniture, heirlooms, and a quiet courtyard that cools the whole space. Because it’s still a private residence, the visit feels intimate and real, not staged. Pair it with a walk around Krabi Road for the full Old Town atmosphere.
