Breakfast at the hotel. Transfer by coach via Suphanburi to the former
capital city of Siam, Ayutthaya, located approximately 80 kilometers to
the north of Bangkok, the ancient city of Ayutthaya is known as the
"Venice of the East" due to the fact that it lies along the
Chao Phraya River, the tributaries of which surround Ayutthaya province.
The glory of the Ayutthaya Empire (1350-1767A.D.) is evident in the
remains of temples such as Wat Phra Sri Sanphet and Wat Chai Wattanaram,
which we will visit in the afternoon. A further visit includes Wat Yai
Chai Mongkol. This well-tended temple was founded by King U-Thong in
1357 as a center for monks returning from study in Sri Lanka. The white
reclining Buddha near the entrance was built by King Naresuan. The
massive pagoda was also built by King Naresuan to celebrate his defeat
of the Burmese at Suphanburi in 1593 by killing their crown prince in a
single-handed combat on elephants. Overnight accommodation is at
Krungsri River Hotel.

meaningful experience for foreigners. Return to the hotel for breakfast.
