Bangkok has now grown to such a size that the visitors think that it can be awarded has always been the capital of Thailand. But this is not the case. In fact, since 13 Century, it is the third, the other two capitals in the north of Sukhothai (1238-1351 AD) and Ayutthaya. Bangkok is only since the middle of the government since 1782 and the present Grand Palace that only about every visit here was actually modeled after the style of the old palace at Ayutthaya.

In their desire through the commercial center of Ayutthaya, that has become for control of lucrative trade routes to take, destroyed many of the BurmeseThe temple of Angkor-style and took back unlimited amounts of wealth in the form of artifacts and jewels to Burma. Although they are less than six months were later expelled by the Burmese government had Ayutthaya as the capital of a place by the thoroughness of its destruction of what was the "Pearl of the East End."

But perhaps because of the proximity of Bangkok to Ayutthaya (86 km), there is again a thriving city of more than half a million people and the ruins of AyutthayaCulture attract many visitors in their own right.

The Kings he reigned Ayutthaya built walls and forts, and the moat that surrounded them, may be the remains are still seen in certain places in the old part of town. And the hundreds of temples that were built, there are plenty of them stillYou can imagine, back in Thailand's golden era of prosperity. If you close your eyes for a moment near an old ruin, it is not difficult to picture bands of silk-clad Thais in their national costumes harem pants cropped at the calf, its activities of the day. The city is still on the three rivers (Chao Phraya, Lopburi and Pa Sak) and a good way to come visit the town that surround three and a half hour boat ride on the ChaoPhraya River from Bangkok, back on the road or rail, which is about an hour and a half journey.

You will pass by Wang Luang (the remnants of the old wooden palace buildings), Wat Phra Si Sanphet, Wat Phra Ram, Wat Ratchaburana, the Ayutthaya Study Center, and two museums – theChao Sam Phraya and Chandra Kasem.

Their short boat trip around the island will you set up for further exploration, as we will explore some ideas on how you want to. A temple, you might find particularly interesting is the above-mentioned Wat Phra Ram, which was established in 1369th It is surrounded in a beautifully landscaped garden with lotus blossoms floating in a pond by the mysterious ruins of the temple. The sight, the question arises, how could the people in these timeshave designed and decorated, and how complex and artistic structures with the technology they possessed.
