Bangkok Ayutthaya is only a one hour ride per train to the
north,
probably the most popular
Bangkok day trip, the
train passes through the outskirts on Bangkok and wide paddy
fields. Rural and city life is very close together in
Thailand. Plenty of people fill the train since the train
continuous up to northern Thailand. Third class travel is
just the right to get into the mood Thailand travel.
A alternative to the train
travel is a Ayutthaya cruise up the Chao Praya River,
but there is no regular boat service, it needs to charter a
boat. They have bigger river boats with restaurants and
cabins on board. There is also bus service from northern
Bangkok bus terminal close to the BTS Bangkok Mo Chit
station. But don’t use this is option it leads directly into
the famous Bangkok “gridlock” traffic situation, if some
uses this option take a “motorbike taxi” to the bus
terminal.
A Ayutthaya tour should be on
the agenda of every Thailand trip,
since here the real old Siam can be seen. What are the
benefits for a tour to this ancient city? A great turn back
with a time machine into the past of Asia with Ayutthaya
Temples and Wats. A Ayutthaya river cruise on the water
around the old city is a great journey, its about one hour
with a “longtail” boat and costs around Baht 500,-, which is
reasonable, this Ayutthaya cruise passes along temples and
pagodas and shows the laid back river life.
There are no bullock carts
anymore, real rural
county with oxcart travel etc. can be seen and experienced
in neighboring Myanmar. Actually the then Burmese army
conquered and destroyed the city in the 18. Century, because
of this the capital was moved to Bangkok. |
