What to expect
Begin your journey at the holiest temple of the Ayutthaya Kingdom, Wat Phra Si Sanphet. Marvel at its three bell-shaped stupas, each containing the ashes of a king. This grand monastery was once used as a presidential palace by the royals, and you'll enjoy seeing the rich history come alive as you explore.
Discover one of Ayutthaya’s oldest temples, Wat Mahathat, famous for the stone Buddha head entwined in the roots of a giant tree. As you wander through the holy compound, be amazed by how well-preserved the temples and Buddhist deities are, offering a window into the past.
Visit the working monastery of Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, where monks continue their daily rituals. Enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and the impressive architecture of this sacred site.
End your day at the Bang Pa-In Royal Palace, a summer retreat for Thai kings. Admire the eclectic mix of architectural styles, including Thai, Khmer, Chinese, and 19th-century European influences, as you stroll around the palaces and temples set on islets and by an artificial lake.
