The Grand Palace and Bangkok Visit the Grand Palace, where you will see the Emerald Buddha as well as the story of Ramayana brought to life in paintings that surround the Palace. Many other tourist sites lay near the palace, and the day can easily be spent taking in the history of Bangkok. Make sure you bring a hat though, the sun gets pretty strong here! Ayutthaya The former capital of Siam until 1767, when the Burmese invaded the city and destroyed it. It's ruins remain to remind us of a lifestyle that used to be. The modern city is built around the old ruins, mixing the two periods together. You can also go for an Elephant ride in Ayutthaya, or have lunch as you travel down the Chao Phraya River. Many other points of interest are in the vicinity, making Ayutthaya a city not to be missed. Kanchanaburi The site of the "Bridge on the River Kwai", which was built by allied soldiers during the Second World War, Kanchanaburi is a favourite for overseas tourists. Take a train over the Bridge, or simply walk across and remember the hundred thousand lives that were lost building this railway between Thailand and Burma. A number of stores based around the tourism industry offer an opportunity to purchase some memorabilia. Sukhothai Sukhothai is the ancient capital of a long-lost Siam. Founded in 1238 and pillaged in 1350, it's ruins stand now amid the rice paddies and sudden hills that tower over the landscape. Some six hours from Bangkok, Sukhothai is not as well known as some other centers. Nevertheless, those interested in history should make the effort to visit. Chiang Mai Not really a day trip, Chiang Mai is some 12 hours from Bangkok. A city of almost a million people, Chiang Mai rests in the far northern mountains. Meet the people and the cultures of the northern tribespeople as you take a step back through time. We'll take you to all the points of interest. You really need two nights' stay in Chiang Mai to enjoy it properly. We'll find you the best and most affordable place to stay.
