About this place

The Geological Museum at Chulalongkorn University is on the ground floor of the Geology Building, Faculty of Science, on the Phaya Thai Road campus in Pathum Wan district. Its department describes displays of rocks, minerals, fossils and dinosaurs, Thailand’s geological sequences and natural fuel resources, with changing exhibitions on geological research and its applications. The department homepage publishes free admission and Monday–Friday visiting hours of 10:00–15:00. A university-wide museum page instead lists 08:00–16:00 on weekdays and no advance booking, while the department’s dedicated museum page asks visitors to make arrangements before visiting. Confirm the current timetable directly; the department specifically asks groups and visitors wanting a guide to contact it in advance. The homepage states that visitor parking is not provided. For enquiries, the Geology Department publishes 02 218 5442–3 and admgeocu@gmail.com. Its postal address is Phaya Thai Road, Wang Mai, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330; the university museum entry gives street number 254. The original mapped museum point is retained. Postal and boundary sources differ on the subdistrict, so the directory uses the confirmed Pathum Wan district. The display photograph is from the department’s museum gallery, which credits Chulalongkorn University. The image was published in a July 2014 upload path; photographer and capture date are unspecified, and current exhibits or cabinet arrangements may differ.
