★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A nicely quiet place about a man pretty much unknown to my generation.
The formerly confidential memos to Kennedy and Khrushchev during the Cuba Crisis gave me goosebumps.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice exhibition, beautiful house and surroundings. Entry fee, 10000 goes to caretaking of the house and the events organised for civil society.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Some care has actually been put into keeping this place looking good and it shows. There is a very nice and helpful lady who can answer any questions and assist you while there. There aren't a lot of artifacts left over from his time living here; but there are a lot of good photographs that showcase his broad influence and dealings with world leaders during his tenure as Secretary-General.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very nice place to visit in Yangon. It is former United Nations Secretary General U Thant's museum and you can learn his life not only as an UN Secretary General but also for his real life.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This building was once home to U Thant, a Burmese Diplomat who served 2 terms in the UN during the 1960s. His grandson came back from the US and restored this building to a museum, in memory of his grandfather.
The guide was friendly and knowledgeable, the place was serene and tranquil. One of the best museums I've seen in Yangon, all exhibits have English explanation and you are free to move around and touch most exhibits, though I would caution visitors to handle them with respect.
Best to get a taxi here, it's nowhere near any bus stops and like some of the reviewers have mentioned, enter via Inya Road

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of the best spots to visit for relax and knowledge. Bring your kids or students to motivate them as a Burmese or whosoever.
Cool, inspired, knowledgeable and historic.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Best museum I’ve seen in Rangoon. Well designed spaces with good information. The internal transcripts on the Cuban Missile Crisis were particularly interesting. The girl on duty was very knowledgeable about U Thant and explained the photos well. I also enjoyed talking to her about Yangon University, where she’s currently taking her Masters at. Would have loved to chat with her more but was pretty much chased off by rampant mosquitoes, especially in the garden.
If you’re walking to this house using Gmaps, don’t walk in from the U Wisara main road like I did! You gotta come in via Chindwin Road from Inya Road instead.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ U Thant House is a really beautiful place. It has lots of original items that belonged to U Thant. His home office looks like if he just left for a break in the middle of a working day.
And there is one item that is really special: a small UN Flag that travelled to the Moon! ?? It was given to U Thant by the members of Apollo 15 crew in 1971 (see the picture below).
Definitely worth visiting!
