Its objective is to build a stronger relationship between Thailand and minority groups, and between Thailand and international community for a better understanding of the way of life of people from 6 hill tribes. The displays contain a wealth of information on Thailand's various tribes and the issues that surround them. The exhibits include typical clothing for six major tribes, examples of bamboo usage, folk implements, harvest equipment and other anthropological objects.
