Private Ayutthaya Historical Park Tour

Just 85 km away lies Ayutthaya, the ancient capital of Thailand, easily accessible for a captivating day tour. Dating back to 1350, the Ayutthaya Historical Park is a must-visit for history, architecture, and religion enthusiasts. With the help of your experienced guide, you'll delve into Buddhist history as you explore numerous temples.
Your journey begins early with a visit to Bang Pa-In Royal Palace, a former summer residence for Thai kings. Golden pagodas and serene pools set the tone for the region's rich past. Much of Ayutthaya was destroyed by Burmese invaders in the 18th century, leaving structures in various states of disrepair.
Once in Ayutthaya, you'll have hours to explore ancient religious sites, including Wat Mahathat, famous for a decapitated Buddha head nestled in tree roots, and Wat Mongkol Borpit, home to an enormous seated Buddha statue. Don't miss Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, the most important complex of the ancient capital, and Wat Chaiwatthanaram, renowned for its towering stone chedis, which contributed to Ayuthaya's UNESCO status in 1991. After a fun and informative day filled with stunning photo opportunities, you'll be transported back to Bangkok.
