It is a small museum in Thaling Chan in Bangkok suburbs that collects\u00a0strange creatures. No supernatural or fantastic creatures but real living animals with some strange particularities.<\/p>\n<p>The iconic animal of this small museum located in Wat Taling Chan is the two-headed Florida turtle but there are also Siamese turtles forming a beautiful heart shape, a no face albino fish, a gecko with two tails ect &#8230; in short, they collect strange animals. A fun and original visit to do in addition to the\u00a0visit of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/eng\/see-visit-thailand\/taling-chan-floating-market-bangkok-155\" target=\"_blank\">Taling Chan\u00a0floating market<\/a> held on weekends and the different tours on the klong tour offered from there.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-3962\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thailandee.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/siam-house-bizarre-creatures-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Siam House of Bizarre Creatures \" width=\"100\" \/><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2eaoxmadtII\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 9.30 am to 5 pm. The entrance fee is 30 baht for Thai children, 60 fror Thai adults and 150 baht for foreigners (but if you speak Thai, you might be able to get\u00a0the Thai price). The price includes a guide but to my knowledge none of them speaks English.<\/p>\n<p>To reach the museum, take bus 79 (the only line that passes by Taling Chan Floating Market), there is a stop in front of Central World. Several other bus lines (eg 149, 507) can drop you around 1 km away.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m14!1m8!1m3!1d3875.018471267056!2d100.4577554!3d13.7777596!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x0%3A0x0!2zMTPCsDQ2JzM5LjkiTiAxMDDCsDI3JzI3LjkiRQ!5e0!3m2!1sen!2s!4v1407156194940\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Siam House of Bizarre Creatures<\/strong>\u00a0<br \/>Chak Phra Rd., Khlong Chak Phra, Taling Chan<br \/>Bangkok 10170<br \/>Tel: 081 4849 882 (mobile)<br \/>Email:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:sh.bizarrecreatures@gmail.com\">sh.bizarrecreatures@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you know the Siam House of Bizarre Creatures ?
