Transfer from The Landmark Bangkok by minivan to Ayutthaya, famous for its ancient temple ruins, and today a UNESCO World Heritage site. Ayutthaya was Thailand's capital from the 13th to the 17th century, when the city was attacked, conquered and occupied for seven months.

Prior to the mid-13th century Ayutthaya was an outpost of the Khmer Empire, and the temples dating from the 10th to the 13th centuries are deeply influenced by the Khmer style. Temples constructed after the Khmer period have a noticeably different, more natively 'Thai' look.

Visit Bang Pa-in Palace, the former Royal Summer Residence with several buildings in both western and oriental styles, followed by Wat Yai Chai Mongkol.

Lunch at Baan Pomphet, a hidden gem of true Thai hospitality and family-style rustic cuisine. This artfully designed sanctuary embraces Ayutthaya’s Chaophraya Riverfront and the beauty of its namesake, Pomphet Fortress.

After lunch, visit Ayutthaya Historical Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Wat Mahathat, Wat Phra Sri Sanphet and Wiharn Phra Mongkhon Bopit. Return transfer to The Landmark Bangkok.
