Pay homage and ask for blessings from the ancient Ganesha statue, more than 300 years old, in the posture of defeating Mara.

Prasat Nakhon Luang is an ancient site located in Nakhon Luang District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province. It was built during the reign of King Prasat Thong. It was originally a residence for kings when they came to pay homage to the Buddha's footprint. It has now become a popular historical tourist attraction on social media. One of the highlights of Prasat Nakhon Luang is praying to the ancient Ganesha, who is more than 300 years old and sits on a throne of skulls. He is believed to help with work, finances, studies, and eliminating obstacles. The way to pray is as follows: Bring 2 banknotes to pray, rub Ganesha's feet to increase financial luck. Ring the bell, and after praying, take 1 banknote back for good fortune. If you can whisper to a mouse to pray, that would be great. (You are not allowed to bring incense and candles upstairs. We recommend praying from below, and the way up can be steep.) Traveling from Bangkok to Prasat Nakhon Luang is not far, taking only 1-1.5 hours. You can travel by private car, using Phahonyothin Road or Asia Road, then take Highway No. 309. If traveling by train, you can get off at Ayutthaya Station and take a car to Nakhon Luang District. For those who are looking for a place to visit near Bangkok that has both history and sacredness, don't miss visiting Ganesha at Prasat Nakhon Luang. #Get a discount without relying on luck
