About the Historical Park

Ayutthaya Historical Park covers an area of 2.89 square kilometres and contains 13 temples, an elephant camp, a study centre and what was once a Japanese settlement. With the exception of the study centre and the elephant park, the attractions within the Historical Park date back to period from 1351 until 1767 when Ayutthaya was the capital city of Thailand and one of the largest cities in the world.

History of Ayutthaya

Ayutthaya’s position as one of the most important cities in South East Asia came to end in 1767 when military forces from neighbouring Burma invaded and took over the city. Much of the city was ransacked by the Burmese, including the temples, and the majority of the Buddha statues in the temples at Ayutthaya Historical Park have been decapitated in a blatant show of force by the Burmese, who were also Buddhists.

Best Temples in the Historical Park

Of the 13 temples in Ayutthaya Historical Park the three most interesting are Wat Phra Sri Sanphet, Wat Mahathat and Wat Phra Ram. Entrance to each of the temples costs 50 THB payable as you enter.
