Plenty to explore in our homestay at the outskirt of Ayutthaya.

Visit the morning market to sample some local food.

A clean and comfortable hotel. The location is very near to Chinatown.

This is a popular spot to view the skyline of Bangkok, especially during sunset. Sadly it was raining with expected thunderstorm, so have to wait 2h before we could go up. The good thing is there is less crowd, but we miss the sunset and cannot walk on the glass roof. Night view is beautiful, but I guess daytime photography would be clearer. No bags on the rooftop, so need to keep it in a locker. No selfie stick too. There is nothing much to do unless you plan to chill at the bar. I think the entrance fee is 890B (might varies), and you need to book ahead if you want the sunset slot.

Love the porridge here, recommended. Simple, silky, tasty and a bit burnt (in a good way, maybe it is the bottom portion). The meatball is good. Lady boss is friendly.

Decent fishball noodle still open for supper.

Rent a costume before touring the ancient city of Ayutthaya. Reasonably priced with many color and style to choose from.

The ruins of an ancient Buddhist temple is pretty impressive, especially on a good weather day. You can rent ancient Thai costumes and take some really nice photos here.

A huge stone reclining Buddha is still very much intact and charming, with a huge head, huge feat and long body. Entrance is free.

This huge bronze Buddha is the restoration of the original Phra Mongkon Bopit sculpted in 1538, as tall as 12.5 meters.

The holiest temple of old Ayutthaya, destroyed by Burmese in 1767. The main attractions are the Stupa/Chedi (where kings are buried) and remains of the old holy city.

Affordable and delicious boat noodle.

This place have many Prangs and Buddha statues (many are headless due to war with Burmese). The most iconic tourist attraction is the Buddha head wrapped by a Banyan tree.

A special local dessert: Roti Sai Mai (colourful candy floss wrapped with rice flour skin). First time trying it and love it. It is a very interesting kind of dessert.

Decent food and dessert by the Riverside.
