Ayutthaya: Thailand’s Ancient Capital You Can’t Miss

#thailandtrip Just an hour from Bangkok, Ayutthaya is like stepping back into a world of ancient temples and rich history. This UNESCO World Heritage Site was once the thriving capital of Siam, now famous for its stunning ruins like Wat Mahathat, where a Buddha head is famously entwined in tree roots, and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, especially magical at sunset. Exploring Ayutthaya is easy and fun, rent a bike to freely wander the vast historical park or hire a tuk-tuk for a local-guided tour. After a day of temple hopping, reward yourself with delicious boat noodles by the river. I booked my flights, hotel in Bangkok, and transfers with Trip.com, making the trip seamless and stress-free. Whether for a day trip or an overnight stay, Ayutthaya offers a peaceful contrast to Bangkok’s bustle and is a must-see for history lovers and curious travelers alike. #postandearn
