Ayutthaya Experience (From Leam Chabang)

A full-day tour to the ancient city of Ayutthaya, The Thai capital for 417 years, is one of Thailand’s major tourist attractions. Many ancient ruins and art works can be seen in a city that was founded in 1350 by King U-Thong when the Thais were forced southwards by northern neighbors. During the period of Ayutthaya being the Thai capital, 33 kings of different dynasties ruled the kingdom until it was sacked by the Burmese in 1767. The area, well conserved as a historical park, has been included in UNESCO’s list of World Heritage since 13 December 1991.

Ayutthaya Experience (From Leam Chabang)

Itinerary

07:00 hrs.: Begin your journey with a scenic drive to Ayutthaya, setting the stage for a full day of historical exploration in Ayutthaya, Thailand’s ancient capital.
09:30 hrs.: Wat Yai Chaimongkon
Begin your journey into the past at Wat Yai Chaimongkon, renowned for its towering stupas and serene Buddha statues. This site offers a glimpse into the Buddhist influence on the ancient kingdom.
10:00 hrs.: Visit either the Chao Sam Phraya National Museum (open Wednesday to Sunday) or the Ayutthaya Historical Study Centre (open Monday and Tuesday).
10:30 hrs.: Continue to Ayutthaya Ancient Palace, which was originally built by King U-Thong in the 14th century and was expanded over the years. These pavilions were completely destroyed in 1767, leaving only the brick foundations, porticos, and walls.
: Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit
Visit Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit, a sanctuary containing a large bronze cast Buddha image that was originally enshrined in the open area outside the Grand Palace and later covered by a building during the reign of King Songtham. The building was badly damaged by fire during the fall of Ayutthaya, and the one currently seen was reconstructed but does not have the same level of craftsmanship as the previous one.
: Wat Phra Si Sanphet
Visit Wat Phra Si Sanphet, the most important temple within the Royal Palace compound and the original from which the Temple of the Emerald Buddha in Bangkok was copied. Three outstanding Ceylonese style pagodas were built in the 15th century to enshrine the ashes of three Ayutthayan kings.
11:30 hrs.: City-sightseeing tour along the Inner City, where you can see many magnificent temples and ruins, including Wat Mahathat, Wat Ratburana, Wat Phra Ram, and visit the Ayutthaya Elephant Camp to feed the elephants.

Across the Rivers to the south of the Island to visit Wat Chaiwatthanaram, one of Ayutthaya’s most beautiful temples, located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Its stunning architecture, inspired by Angkor Wat, provides a perfect end to your day of exploration.
