Activity itinerary

Wat Chaiwatthanaram

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Wat Chaiwatthanaram is a temple built in the 1600s.When the capital of Thailand was Ayutthaya, it was said to be a temple used for various events, but it has a history of being destroyed by the war against the Burmese army (now Myanmar) that broke out in the 1700s and falling into ruins.The walkways and other structures in the park are now well maintained, and visitors can stroll around the plot and take photos while enjoying the atmosphere of an ancient city that is deserted.It is also possible to rent Thai national costumes (for a fee) at the entrance of the plot, and you can walk around the plot dressed in beautiful national costumes with a parasol in your hand.

Wat Phra Sri Sanphet

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Visit Wat Phra Si Samphet, built in the late 1,400s in the Ayutthaya Royal Palace.It was once a flourishing place, but it too has been destroyed by the Burmese army's invasion of all its buildings and Buddha statues.Now, the rows of Thai Royal Palace buildings in Bangkok are said to have been built in perfect reproduction of the map of this section before it was destroyed, so you can feel the flow of Thai history from Ayutthaya to the present.

Wat Mahathat

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Wat Mahathat was once also built by temples and buildings whose summits shone with gold.It is also a destroyed and abandoned place, where you can admire a landscape where trees grow and cover the head of a Buddha statue that has been destroyed and rolled to the ground over the long period of time, deserted.This is now a park, with rental bicycles and a walk around the park on the back of an elephant.

บ้านอยุธยา Bistro Ayutthaya

  • 50m
For lunch, head to Bang Ayutthayarom, a Thai restaurant on the Chao Phraya River.There are Riverside seats and stylish, air-conditioned indoor seating.You can taste authentic Thai dishes such as the famous charcoal-grilled river shrimp and Thai-style ankake-yaki oysters.This is a Thai river shrimp that is so big that I have never seen it before in Japan, and it tastes and tastes strangely like 50/50 shrimp and crab.It's common to pickle a spicy Thai seafood sauce, but it's also recommended to sprinkle it with salt to enjoy the taste of the ingredients more.

Wat Phu Khao Thong (Golden Mount)

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Visit Wat Phu Khao Thong, an 80 meter high temple.This temple, called "Golden Pagoda Temple", allows visitors to ascend to the central pagoda by stairs, but it is recommended to be careful about stepping on the stairs because they are narrow and steep, and if you are not good at heights, never look back on the way up and climb to the top at once.Once you reach the top, you'll have panoramic views of the cityscape of Ayutthaya, a World Heritage Site, from high above.

Wat Phanan Choeng Worawihan

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
Wat Panangchoon is said to have been built before the Ayutthaya dynasty, where a large 19m golden Buddha sits.This temple is still visited by a large number of worshippers as it is an auspicious building that miraculously escaped from the many invasions and sabotages of the Burmese army that took place in the past.It is characterized by its Chinese-style decoration, and can be used for various prayer fulfillment events and for drawing fortune slips.
