Overview

Ayutthaya is an ancient city in Thailand that's located north of Bangkok. It was the capital of the Siamese Kingdom from the 14th to the 18th centuries. Today, it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a popular destination for history buffs and culture lovers.

Trip will start from Bangkok and driving to Ayutthaya, The Professional tour guide will take you through the remains of the city, showing you all of the most famous landmarks and telling their storey.

Ayutthaya was abandoned after the war attracted by the Burmese in April 1767, and although many buildings were damaged or destroyed you can still get an amazing sense of what this place must have once been like.

There are so many temples here, roughly many hundred years old and some are still in amazing condition.

Once you have explored the temples of Ayutthaya and lunch. you’ll return to central Bangkok in the late afternoon.

Activity itinerary

Wat Lokaya Sutha
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Wat Lokkayasutha is located at Tambol Pratuchai, Amphur Pranakornsriayuttaya, Pranakornsriayuttaya. The location is near the Ruin Royal old Palace and Wat Prasrisanpetch which are both the centers of the Ayuttaya Kingdom. Therefore, this is another important temple in Ayuttaya
Wat Phu Khao Thong (Golden Mount)
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
Wat Phukhao Thong or the Monastery of the Golden Mount is located off the city island in the plains 2 Km northwest of Ayutthaya in Phukhao Thong Sub-district. The monastery was built by King Ramesuan (r. 1369-1370 / 1388-1395) in 1395. (1) The actual temple’s name refers to the high chedi on its northeast side. At the time of construction of the monastery, this chedi was inexistent; hence the temple probably had another name.
Wat Yai Chai Mang Khon
  • 45m
  • Admission ticket included
This monastery constructed in the reign of King U-Thong is located outside the city to the southeast in the same direction as the railway station ; one can see its large pagoda from far away. King Naresuan the Great commanded that the pagoda be built to celebrate the victory of his single-handed combat on the elephant back.
Wat Mahathat
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
Wat Phra Mahathat, Thailand, was a royal temple of the Ayutthaya Kingdom. It is one of the oldest and most significant temples in the history of Ayutthaya as it housed the Buddha's holy relic.
Ayutthaya Elephant Palace & Royal Kraal (Pass by)
The Pavilion, utilised as the royal seat to witness the elephant round up, is situated north of the city island. In the past wild elephants would be trained here to become war or transport animals. It is thought that in the Ayutthaya period the stockade was inside the city wall, but this one was built later and was used up until the Bangkok period.
Wat Phra Sri Sanphet
  • 1h
  • Admission ticket included
It was located inside the compound of the Grand Palace-the foundations of which are still visible-and served as the royal chapel, as Wat Phra Kaeo does in Bangkok. This Wang Lung Palace (Royal Palace) was built by King U-Thong upon the founding of the city.
