Ayuthaya
Ancient Capital
Thailand, The Land Of Smiles, Is A nation
With A Long History Of Over 1000 Years.
Before Bangkok,Sukhothai,Ayutthaya And
Thonburi Were Sucessively The Capitals
Of The Country.
Ayutthaya Used To Be A Flourishing And
Prosperous Capital In The Past. It Was
The Capital - for 417 Years. And during
This Long Period There Arose A Great
Deal Of Construction, Among Them were
numberous palace and Temples. As More
Than 30 Monarches Ruled Over Ayutthaya,
innumerable Events Occurred,
Some
Of Which Were Historically Recorded,
While Others Became Exciting Legends,
Still Narrated Nowadays, The Ruined
Temples And Palaces Either Naturally
Worn Out By Time Or Destroyed By Wars,
Were No Doubt The Valuable Ancient Sites,
A Perfect Reflection Of Golden And Legendary
Glorious Past.
