Bang Pa-In Palace
Bang Pa-In Palace is an ancient palace dating back to the Ayutthaya era. It was commissioned by King Prasart Thong and was later rebuilt by King Mongkut. The palace is divided into two zones. The inner zone is dedicated to the Royal Family and the outer zone is open to locals and tourists. Aside from holding ceremonies, the palace also stores ancient weapons, carved statues, and tributes to the Royal Family.

Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon
Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, or the “Monastery of the Auspicious Victory”, is located off the city to the southeast of Ayutthaya. It is one of the most important temples and has a long and illustrious history. In the northeast of Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon is the ruins of a viharn containing a large statue of the Reclining Buddha which was constructed during the reign of King Naresuan. And unlike many of the other ancient sites in Ayutthaya, this is still an active temple where monks reside. People come here to not only pay respects to Buddha, but also to pay homage to one of the most respected kings in Thai history, King Naresuan the Great.
