Join a group today and explore the highlight of any visit to Bangkok - the Palace of the Kings. You have a choice of visiting Thailand’s ancient former capital by boat and returning by van or vice-versa. A river boat journey allows for a close up view of those living on the river, including close access to the many temples and sites along the way to / from the Palace.Located 53 miles north of Bangkok Ayuthaya was Thailand’s capital from 1350 to 1767. Once a thriving international commercial center, but today only the ruins of this splendid city are to be seen. The ruins and temples are quite spectacular and some are still quite intact like bronze statues of Wat Chai Mongkol and Wat Panangcherng.
You will also see the summer palace of King Rama IV with it’s mixture of Thai, Chinese and Gothic architecture which is a well preserved 'museum' to a former historical period in the land once known as Siam.
