The people of Thailand gave the U of Wisconsin a gift of a Thai Pavilion, the only one now in the US. It's mainly a little pavilion in a natural setting, in a Thai tropical gaden, with water gardens. Very peaceful.

The cool thing about the struture is it has no nails. It's built so it just fits together naturally. It's been stadning for years.

You get to it by going thru a tropical garden made to resemble something in Thailand.

Address: 3330 Atwood Ave
Directions: You get to it by going thru the Ohlbrich Gardens, then walking out into the gardens, and keep walking back and to the right. Cross the river and you'll find it.
