The Sound of Khim | The Sukhothai Bangkok

Missing the sound of the Thai instrument "Khim" at the unique lobby of The Sukhothai Bangkok?

The khim performance is now at The Sukhothai Club Lounge during All-You-Can-Eat Afternoon Tea every Saturday and Sunday.

The khim instrument came to China from Persia during the Ming-Qing dynasty (1368-1911) and was popular in the northeast of the Kwang Tung territory. At the end of the Ayutthaya period, Thai people obtained the knowledge of how to build and play early versions of the khim from China. While the popularity of Chinese opera was rising, the instrument became popular due to its use within the opera group and this helped to further familiarise Thai people with the khim.
