Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Muangboran (Ancient City), 296/1 Moo 7, Sukhumvit Road Bangpumai Subdistrict, Bangkok 10280 Thailand
Your guide and driver will pick you up for a 3.5 hour trip, covering all directions of the Thai Kingdom. This fascinating attraction, approximately 30 kilometers away from Bangkok, is created in the exact shape of the kingdom and is also known as ‘Muang Boran’.
Set in 320-acres of stunning landscaped gardens, the open-air museum Ancient City contains 116 replicas of Thailand’s most historically significant sites, positioned in a precise scaled-down geographical version of the entire country. All major monuments ranging from one third of original to actual size and even a 50 meters high mini-mountain representing Khao Prasat Phra Viharn in the east of Thailand have been reconstructed, and millions have been invested to rebuild the ancient Reception Hall of Ayutthaya.
Visitors can also view models of buildings lost to history that have been faithfully recreated for posterity. The Ancient City will leave visitors culturally and spiritually enlightened about 15 centuries of the history, art, religions and customs of the Siam of old, to present day Thailand. Constructed by an art-loving philanthropist dealer, Muang Boran provides an excellent introduction to the country’s architecture, including reproductions of buildings, which no longer exist.
It is possible to rent bicycles or make use of electrical carts to ride along the many sights; fees of such nature will be on the expenses of the clients and can be paid on spot. Your guide will tell you shortly about all the sights of the Kingdom that are represented here before we head back to your booked Bangkok hotel.
