Historic City of Ayutthaya houses Wat Phra Si Sanphet, the largest temple ruin in Ayutthaya which was awarded as a UNESCO Heritage site. This temple is a must-visit for all Ayutthaya travelers since this temple was the personal temple of Thai kings in the Ayutthaya period. The highlight of this temple is the three large stupas standing at the center of the temple. The stupas were built for containing relics of all Kings of Ayutthaya. The temple is highly valuable for people seeking to study Thai history.
For your information, Wat Phra Si Sanphet was located inside the Grand Palace of Ayutthaya and served as the royal Chapel, as Wat Phra Kaeo does in Bangkok. In Ayutthaya’s heyday, this was the largest temple in the city. When King Borom Trai Lokanat commanded the construction of new living quarters, this residential palace was transformed into a temple and the establishment of Wat Phra Si Sanphet.

Viharn Pra Mongkolborpit houses one of the largest bronze Buddha images in Thailand. Many Thai Buddhists visit this temple to cherish the beauty of the huge golden Buddha image. The Buddha image is in the attitude of subduing Mara. This Buddha image has a lap measurement of 9.55 meters and a height of 12.45 meters. You will need to look up to the ceiling to admire the huge size of this Buddha image.

Wat Mahathat is a UNESCO world heritage site. This temple is well-known to worldwide travelers for the Lord Buddha’s head embedded in the Bodhi tree. Historically, Wat Mahathat was a royal temple of the Ayutthaya Kingdom. It is one of the oldest and most significant temples in the history of Ayutthaya as it housed the Buddha’s holy relic. Attractions in Wat Mahathat include remains of old buildings such as pagodas, octagonal pagodas, a royal hall, small temples, murals under a Bodhi tree, and the famous sand-stone Ayutthaya-style head of the Buddha image in a tree’s root.

Wat Phra Ngam is another must-go old temple in Ayutthaya. The beauty of this holy site can be seen through the beautiful architecture of the structured octagon pagoda and the “Time Portal”, the arched entrance made from bricks cuddled by the giant Bodhi Tree. The exotic appearance of this notable arch becomes the photo shooting spot for trendy foreign tourists.

Wat Na Phra Meru is the only temple in Ayutthaya that hasn’t been destroyed by the Burmese and shows the most complete vision of Ayutthaya architecture. You will see the original beauty of the 500- year-old Ayutthaya temple here. In addition, the temple houses the green stone Buddha image dated back to the Dvaravati period. This stone Buddha statue is in a sitting position, which is only one of the five that exist in Thailand. After visiting this temple, you will have an authentic, Thai-taste dinner recommended by our guide.

Wat Chaiwattanaram is one of the most visited historical sites of Ayutthaya. The Temple was ordered to be built in 1630 by King Prasat Thong to honor his mother, featuring the architectural style influenced by the Angkor temple in Cambodia-its unique feature is a large, central prang (Khmer-style pagoda) surrounded by smaller prangs, symbolizing Mount Sumeru, the gods’ mountain according to Hindu belief. The lighting at night makes the temple even more exotic and beautiful.
As a bonus to your tour, our guides will bring you on a sunset boat ride, where you will see the romantic sunset on the Chao Phraya river bank, before leading you back to your comfy hotel.
