The historic city of Ayutthaya is the old capital of Siam (nowadays Thailand), and was built in the 14th century. It was the second capital of the country. Nowadays, you can visit the Ayutthaya historical park, which is recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The ruins of the old city are quite well preserved. It is possible to visit Ayutthaya as a day trip from Bangkok, or stay for one night while travelling there. Now Ayutthaya is an ordinary provincial city but with a historic trump card in hand. Here stands a wealth of partially restored temples, ruins and Buddha statues from the abandoned royal city. Some of the temples are among Thailand's most famous, and it's also here where you'll find the iconic Buddha head. #bangkoktrip

The ruins of this former kingdom are quite impressive and a lot of fun to explore. While it’s a doable day trip from Bangkok, you may want to stay a night or two to make sure you see all of the Ayutthaya temples. We went there at 8 o clock in the morning, and theres a lot of people already. Before going inside the park make sure that you wear an appropriate outfit, wearing shorts is a no no, but incase you are wearing one you can buy skirts or pants from the vendors outside the park.

Before the Thai capital was moved to Bangkok, Ayutthaya was the seat of the Siamese empire for more than 400 years (1350-1767). The kingdom, which is estimated to have a population of one million, made Ayutthaya the largest city of its time. Ayutthaya is one of the most impressive cities in Asia and a must-see for every history enthusiast when visiting Thailand. The Menam, Lopburi and Pasak rivers surround Ayutthaya Historical Park, the island where most of the temple ruins are located. Wandering through this ancient city will make you feel like you have stepped back in time. It will take you at least two days to see all the attractions, and longer if you don't want to feel rushed. To get to Ayutthaya you can directly buy tickets on the spot at Hua Lamphong Station (Bangkok Train Station), and it will take approximately 90 - 120 minutes. #summervacation

[Forgotten Times · The Invincible City] Compared to China's long history, the history of Thailand, which began with the rule of the Thai people, is not long, only about 800 years. Among the few dynasties in Thailand, the Ayutthaya Kingdom was the longest reigning, with the largest territory and the most prosperous economy, culture, politics, and trade. It lasted for more than 400 years, roughly equivalent to the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, and was eventually destroyed by Burma. Today, the Ayutthaya Kingdom, or Ayutthaya as I prefer to call it, has long since disappeared, leaving only ruins. Rent a bicycle and ride around the historic city. The palaces and temples are long gone, but countless pagodas, some intact and some in ruins, still stand. The most distinctive are the Ayutthaya-style Prang pagodas, which we jokingly call corn towers, and they are spectacular. Near dusk, head to the southwest of the city to the large Wat Chaiwatthanaram, wait for the sunset, and reflect on life. No dynasty is forever glorious, and no dynasty can last forever. 📝Tips: 1. The most convenient way to get to Ayutthaya is by train from Bangkok. 2. Visit for 1–2 days.

Many people overlooked this hidden GEM 💎 when visiting Bangkok! Most people come to Thailand, to enjoy the beaches 🏝️, have amazing food, indulge in amazing nightlife, and take photos in front of beautiful temples but skipped this opportunity to do a day trip to AYUTTHAYA 🇹🇭‼️ It has all the ancient temples and wonders dating all the way back to the 13th century, with many different types of architecture, from Angkor Wat Hindu style to traditional Thai Buddhis style. It doesnt get as crowded as Angkor Wat, or the main temples in Bangkok but it is still a sight to behold. make sure you catch the sunset in one of the temples next to the night market as well! To get there, the easiest way is to join a tour. But its also possible to do tuktuks and they would show you around the amazing wonder! 💭 🇹🇭
