Roitawarabarn Baandhawalai – Porter house is perched on a picturesque hilltop overlooking Suthep Road Suthep Subdistrict, Thailand
This was a hidden gem during our trip through Thailand. Mr. Marukpitak has invested his life savings into a “house for the gods”. There is no admission fee and clearly, the intention for this monument is a heartfelt one. He personally led us through the grounds, where several artists are actively working on hand painted murals, doors, facades, glass etchings and thousands of intricate and traditional Thai art pieces. The Ganesh carving was something to see and our host, for a very small donation provided us with an offering that we could put out – all while explaining the attributes of this particular Ganesh. It was a very special experience. Absolutely awe-inspiring and off the beaten path travel experience – HUGE thanks to our host Mr. Marukpitak!
I almost don’t want to write this as it just would not be the same experience if it is overrun with tourists, but guess 2 reviews is not going to make that happen! My daughter and I went for a look whilst cycling near where we were staying. We had seen the signboard – its at the end of Suthep Road, take a left and then a right and its then up a narrow alleyway right at the bottom of the forest. We almost didn’t go in despite the beautiful painted doorway on the outside as we were not really sure what it was. How glad we were that we did! The house is STUNNING – thick polished teak floors, intricate artwork everywhere, a hundred massive painted doors, windows with beautiful cut glass designs and artists working on spectacular pieces including a 10 metre panel destined for the owners next project in North East Thailand which the artist has been painting for 4 years – with another 5 to go!! Khem, the owner, is an art lover who found a 5 ton piece of wood when digging the foundation for his house. In a dream he was told to carve a Ganesh from it, despite him being a Buddhist (a reflection of the wonderful Buddhist tolerance and respect). It is thus at the moment the largest Ganesh carved from a single piece of wood. However, Khem is currently having an even larger one carved from a 9 ton piece of wood also for his NE Thai project. Khem is absolutely charming and passionate. There is no charge to get in, but you can donate or better still, pay 100 Bhat to make an offering to Ganesh and be blessed with material wealth, health and happiness! We felt we had found somewhere extremely spiritual and special. Wishing Khem all the best with his next fantastical endeavour.
I’m guessing this is somebody’s life long project. Beautiful works of art going on here. I believe it’s all produced on the premises. It’s got that Hindu / Buddhist mix of things going on. Lots of different things and different styles, yet it all seems to fit together quite well. I can’t really point to any one particular piece that struck me. There was a painting of a horse I’m guessing Kanthaka I thought was nice. They got a little bit of a shrine to the King’s sister who visited here some years back. I here she’s a very nice lady who lives a simple life, and a lot of people here in Thailand admire her. Saw a few young people here working on the paintings, statues. Wish I was part of something like this when I was their age. Wish I was creative like them.
