Each week we post a link to an article in Bangkok 101 - and today we choose to share with you -  https://www.bangkok101.com/roaming-amongst-the-ruins/   - an article within a bigger one about Ayutthaya. Original text by Bruce Scott. Ayutthaya  wa s the second capital of Thailand (when it was called Siam). But in 1767 the Burmese invaded and Ayutthaya was almost decimated and the  royal line  relocated to Bangkok. The Thai Fine Art Department began to restore Ayutthaya in 1969 and then UNESCO declared Ayutthaya a World Heritage Site. For tourists to see them all in one day transport will be needed and for the famous sites there is a small entrance fee – most sites are open from 8am to 5pm. Here is  a   selection   from  the list that they make for you; Wat Phra Si Sanphet. This was the most respected and holiest temple in Ayutthaya .   H ere are more details -  http://ayutthaya-history.com/Temples_Ruins_PhraSisanphet.html   - location:   https://goo.gl/maps/yW4s

      Today’s post is by Road Affair - https://www.roadaffair.com - and is about the 10 best things that to do if you visit Bangkok - https://www.roadaffair.com/best-things-to-do-in-bangkok/ . “Thailand’s capital, Bangkok, is a feast for the senses. The smells, sounds and tastes you’ll come across will make you feel alive.” 1.   Eat some street food - there is certainly an abundance of that here! 2.   Go to the Cinema - this is quite a luxury and is not as expensive as some places, please remember it may be cold and to stand up when the National Anthem is played at the beginning 3.   Ride on the BTS – this will take you all over Bangkok and you don’t need the traffic – you might want to invest in a ‘Rabbit Card’. 4.   Get a Thai Massage – stay away from Patong for this, unless this is what you are looking for? 5.    Relax/Workout in Lumpini Park – wonderful early in the morning 6.   Have a Sunset Drink at a Sky Bar – there are a lot to choose from!
