The
ancient city of
Ayutthaya, or Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya,
The Thai capital for 417 years, is one of Thailand’s
major tourist attractions. Many ancient ruins and art
works can be seen in a city that was founded in 1350
by King U - Thong when the Thais were forced
southwards by northern neighbours. During the period
of Ayutthaya being the Thai capital, 33 kings of
different dynasties ruled the kingdom until it was
sacked by the Burmese in 1767.
