Ayutthaya, located about 80 kilometers north of Bangkok, Thailand, was the capital of the Ayutthaya Kingdom from the 14th to the 18th century. Its ruins, set among rivers and canals, reveal a once-thriving city that was a hub of trade, politics, and culture, linking Southeast Asia with China, India, and Europe. Today, the historic park preserves temples, monasteries, and palaces, where intricately carved Buddha statues and towering prangs (temple towers) reflect the grandeur of the kingdom.

Visitors to Ayutthaya can wander through impressive sites like Wat Mahathat, famous for the Buddha head entwined in tree roots, and Wat Phra Si Sanphet, the former royal temple with its iconic chedis. The Chao Phraya River and surrounding canals lend a serene backdrop, perfect for boat tours that provide a different perspective on the ruins. The city’s layout, blending waterways with historic architecture, offers insight into urban planning in Southeast Asia during the kingdom’s peak.
