Subjects : Ayutthaya (Thai full name: Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, also transliterated Ayudhya) is a major city (thesaban nakhon) in Thailand. The municipal territory occupies a part of the district of Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya, which is the capital of the Province of Ayutthaya, in the regional group of Central Thailand. The city is home to the provincial and district government. It was between 1351 and 1767 the capital of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya, also called Siam, from which today's Kingdom of Thailand would be formed. In the municipal territory are preserved the ruins of the ancient city that form the Ayutthaya Historical Park, a World Heritage Site recognized by UNESCO in 1991.

Recommended equipment : The place does not require special photographic equipment. A wide-angle lens and, if you want to photograph at night, a tripod would be preferable.

Best months : December - January

How to get there : The cheapest and most common way to reach Ayutthaya is by train, leaving from Hualamphong railway station from Bangkok to Ayutthaya, the journey takes 2-2'5 hours but always tend to go with a little delay (very common in Thailand).

Visits : Among the most classic – and most interesting – excursions that can be easily organized starting from Bangkok, certainly in first place we find Ayutthaya, ancient capital of the kingdom of Siam and today a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is a very vast site and it seems that the temples illuminated in the evening are wonderful, but in this article I will focus on the solution dedicated to those who, despite having little time available, still do not want to give up exploring Ayutthaya: the day visit.
