THE "ANCIENT CAPITAL" AYUTTHAYA
THE "ANCIENT CAPITAL" AYUTTHAYA
ShoreTrips says...
Make sure to check out Wat Phra Mahathat when in the old city of Ayutthaya. During the town's peak, this was arguably the most important temple and remains one of the most intriguing sites today!
The exploration of Ancient Thailand is both majestic and exhilarating as you venture into the historic depths of sites unique to this area. Your day will begin with a drive to the famous town of Ayutthaya, the "Ancient Capital", which stood as the face of the Thai kingdom for 417 years. By 1700 it grew to the largest city in the world with close to 1 million residents and was considered by many European merchants to be the most beautiful city they had come across. Unfortunately, its quick demise was just as fast as its rise when it was left abandoned following a Burmese invasion in 1767. The remaining temples and palaces made of stone will create a very compelling ambiance that will stick in your mind forever!
Ayutthaya is 53 miles north of Bangkok.
