Drive towards the Ancient city of Ayutthaya, the former capital of Thailand. Make your first stop at Wat Phra Sri Sanphet which was for a long time considered to be the spiritual centre of Thailand. Situated within the royal palace grounds, the temple is the royal monastery and is a model of the royal temple of the Emerald Buddha or Wat Phra Kaew in Bangkok.

Then, head to Wat Mahathat Ayutthaya which is one of the oldest and most significant temples in the history of Ayutthaya as it housed the Buddha's holy relic. The temple is most famous for the Buddha head situated in a Bodhi tree root. Next, stop at Wat Ratchaburana which houses a large number of Buddha images and gold artefacts. Enjoy lunch that will be served at Krungsri River Hotel.

In the afternoon, continue on to the Chao Sam Phraya National Museum.

Then, visit Wat Lokaya Sutharam to see the 42-meter-long reclining white Buddha.

Last but not least, finish the trip at Wat Chaiwattanaram which rests on the bank of the Chao Phraya River.
