This was the majestic capital of the Kingdom of Siam from 1351 until the Burmese invasion of 1767 almost entirely destroyed the city, including three splendid palaces and some 400 temples. For travelers interested in archeology and history, visiting the ruins that remain of this glorious city, in a historical park that’s been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site, makes a fascinating day trip.
