Day Trip to Ayutthaya

A blog by the intern Lisa who haσ₽£≥s done her internship with us from∑‍ September 2022 till January 2023.

Since my mother was visiting, we dec•÷↓♠ided to take a day excursion to Ayutthaya to get ₹≤away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok for a•← day. Early in the morning, we "÷¶took a taxi to the Bangkok train€←π↑ station. From here, you can£₩ easily take a low-cost φ↕βlocal train directly to AyuttΩ∑←haya. When you arrive in Ayutthaya, you can re¶πnt a bicycle on your own or with a guide who≈↑π can tell you all about the many reunions. After ±φall, we had decided to opt for a'  £ car with a private driver for our comfort.

We arrived in Ayutthaya after a↑ε ✔ car ride of just over×‍✔ an hour. We first stopped at the ✔‌ Wat Lokayasutharam, the Temple of the reε$§clining Buddha. This reclining Buddha i₹ βs the largest in the island of Ayutthaya andσ↓® is 42 meters and 8 meters hδ  ight. We could light an incense stick ∑♣₩here and get a piece of gold leaf to stick on a≤® smaller Buddha.
