We leave Bangkok at 0700 hours and depart  to Ayutthaya or the Ancient City as it is also known.  The Ancient City is one of Thailand's most historic and majestic highlights.  The city was destroyed by the Burmese army in1767 and is now a UNESCO world heritage site.  A large number of  palaces temples and chedis are still standing. In 1782 Bangkok became the capital of Thailand.

We visit Wat Chai watthanaram, Wat Yai Chi Mongkhon, Wat Lokayasutha.  Wat Phra Si Samphet is the main temple complex left over from Ayuthaya’s golden age.  We visit the ancient palace and Vihan Mongkol Bopit one of the largest bronze buddhas in Thailand.

At 12.30 we have lunch (included).  Afterwards we visit Wat Phra Mahathat, one of the most imposing ancient Buddhist monasteries. This temple is located on the bank of Chao Phaya River. King Prasatthong commanded the building of architecture influenced by the Khmer style in 1630.  It is one of Ayutthaya's most beautiful temples and a major tourist attraction.

Returning from Ayutthaya we go to Bang Pa-In, at approx 1430, the former royal summer retreat of the 17th century kings of Ayutthaya. Not to be missed, very picturesque, this present-day royal palace dates from the reign of King Chulalongkorn (1868-1910). Most of the buildings standing today were constructed between 1872-1889.
