Visiting Amphawa without mentioning or stopping by Krua Eua would be like not truly experiencing Amphawa. Kru Eua, or Eua Suntornsanan, was a musician, singer, and composer who founded the renowned band "Suntaraporn." This legendary band is considered an immortal icon in the Thai Luk Krung music scene, achieving nationwide fame.

The text describes the establishment of "Baan Krua Ua," a museum dedicated to the renowned Thai musician Krua Ua Sunthornphan. Founded by the Sunthornphan Foundation, the museum repurposes a historic wooden house located near the Amphawa Canal, Krua Ua's birthplace, into a cultural space. This initiative serves as a tribute to the maestro's significant contributions to Thai music.

Inside Krua's house

To serve as an exhibition venue showcasing the history of Khru Aue's works, the story of Suntharaphon music from the past to the present. It also collects Khru Aue's personal belongings, such as musical instruments, performance clothes, work desks, and rare old photos. It serves as a data center for the general public interested in research.

Timeline of Khru Aue's Life

Inside the house, Krua Eua has set up a corner for music fans to sit and listen to retro music that perfectly complements the atmosphere of the ancient wooden house. Visitors can also sit and research or read books. In addition, there is a corner set up to sell souvenirs and musical works by Krua Eua Suntornsanan, such as books, shirts, and keychains, for visitors to choose from. This place is also part of the "Local Wisdom Conservation Project of Amphawa People" by the Chaipattana Foundation of Her Royal Highness Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn.

Fortunately, we visited Amphawa on the weekend, as Krua Aue Amphawa is only open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays.
