Ayutthaya Thailand for my birthday almost 2 years ago, many movies filmed here its a magic place. Wonderfully photogenic even if i did add a little too much saturation
Tako kot celo mesto, je tudi ta tempelj res zanimiv. Se splača zapeljat par minut iz centra mesta ... #Ayutthaya #Thailand #Backpacker #Journey #Thai #Trip #2015
