Ayutthaya General Facts

Ayutthaya shares the central plain of Thailand with 20 other provinces. The place has been regarded as Thai cultural cradle as for hundreds of years it was a capital of Ayutthaya Kingdom. Centuries after the fall of the kingdom, it was entitled Ayutthaya World Heritage Site in 1991.

Today, Ayutthaya tops a list of cultural destinations in Thailand. There are archaeological ruins conspicuous over rice fields, many of which are obscured by a line of houses commonly seen around. Ayutthaya temples with elaborate Buddha images of under a command of deceased kings have been renovated and are highly respected.

Located on the fertile delta of rivers, Ayutthaya is 76 kilometers northwards from Bangkok. Main islets of Ayutthaya or Ko Mueng and Ko Loi are naturally emerged by four surrounding watercourses – Chao Phraya, Pasak, Lopburi, and Noi. There are also canals branching off the rivers penetrating the land and prompt rice fields to flourishingly cover Ayutthaya when monsoon season arrives.
