1. Bang Pa-In, the Summer Palace used by King Chulalongkorn, Rama V, to retreat. He admired European architecture and the buildings are a mix of European and Oriental architectural styles. The beautiful gardens with lakes around the buildings make it a wonderful place to wander around.

2. Wat Phra Si Sanphet was located inside the compound of the Grand Palace (the foundations of which are still visible) and served as the Royal Chapel. In Ayutthaya's heyday, this was the largest temple in the city. The three main chedis which have been restored contain the ashes of three Ayutthaya kings.

3. Wat Mahathat was one of Ayutthaya’s most important temples. It enshrined Buddha relics and was the seat of the Supreme Patriarch of Buddhism and thus the center of Buddhism in the Ayutthaya Kingdom. One of the temple’s most photographed objects is the head of a stone Buddha image entwined in the roots of a tree.

4. Although Wat Lokayasutharam is not one of the most famous historic sites in Ayutthaya, it is an impressive location to visit because of its huge reclining Buddha image. At 42 metres long and 8 metres high, the statue towers over the devotees who come here to make offerings.

About Bangkok

Bangkok er Thailands overstrømmende hovedstad, hvor forgyldte templer og kongelige paladser kantes af floden blandt madboder, markeder og skyskrabere.

Det Store Palads og Wat Phra Kaew, der huser den ærede Smaragdbuddha, glitrer på den gamle kongelige ø Rattanakosin. Ved siden af rummer Wat Pho en kæmpe hvilende Buddha og en berømt skole for thai-massage, og på den anden side af Chao Phraya-floden gløder Wat Aruns porcelænsbesatte spir ved solnedgang.

Top-ranked sights in Bangkok: Temple of the Dawn (Wat Arun), Bangkok Chinatown (Yaowarat), Grand Palace.
