U Thant House is a place to remember the life and work of former United Nations Secretary-General U Thant and to discuss national and global challenges. There is a permanent exhibition featuring dozens of photographs and film footage tracing U Thant's life from the modest beginnings in the Irrawaddy delta town of Pantanaw to his time as the world's premier diplomat. Visitors can also take a guided tour performed by our knowledgeable museum facilitators. Please notice we are open only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 5pm. Visits outside these open hours can be arranged.

We had a wonderful visit at this museum. You make a donation of 10,000 at the outside of the building. The docent will invite you to first review the artifacts, photographs and descriptions that are on the second level. There is also a 10 minute video on the second floor. Then you come downstairs and ask for a quick tour of the main floor which basically explains who is in each of the photographs along with U Thant. The docent was quite knowledgeable. You can purchase a guide to the museum, for $3, although they were sold out of English guides when we were there. U Thant a great man. He carefully navigated through several world crises. I believe he would be very disappointed in the current state of the United Nations. The General Assembly seems to be dominated by the 23 Arab and other Muslim countries and their supporters. The Security Council is dominated by the veto power of Russia and China. How sad. If you like this review and or the photographs, please feel free to give me a thumbs up. You may also wish to check out my reviews of other tourist sites in the city as well as in Singapore, Bangkok, Taiwan, cities in Cambodia and Vietnam as well as in Australia, New Zealand, Spain, Portugal, and South America.
