   PHRA  NAKHON  SI  AYUTTAYA
 


       From 1350 to 1767, Ayutthaya served as the capital of Thailand and as its cultural centre, until it was sacked by the Burmese. The remains of this island city are of extreme archaeological importance and restoration has been extensive. Today it is a historical park and UNESCO World Heritage Site.

       Chao Sam Phraya National Museum contains many relics rescued from the ruins including gold items buried in temples. Ayutthaya Historical Study Centre  researchesthe period when Ayutthaya was the capital.

      The park is strewn with ruins of palaces, temples, and monuments. Wat Phra Si Sanphet was the largest in its day, within the royal palace compound. The line of  three chedis, containing the ashes of the first three kings, is in the style now known as Ayutthayan.

      During excavations of Wat Phra Mahathat and Wat Ratburana,the Fine Arts Department found treasure chests containing priceless objects including gold Buddhas, jewels, royal regalia, etc,
 which are now housed in Bangkok's National Museum.

    Some 20 kilometres south of the town is Bang Pa-In Summer Palace an old country residence that became  popular with King Chulalongkorn who
 constructed many buildings in different styles. Most picturesque is the Isawan Thippa-at Pavilion standing in the centre of a lake.
