  • Wat Mahathat - 15:30 (30 minutes): Wat Mahathat, built in the 13th century, is one of Ayutthaya’s oldest and most significant temples, once housing the Buddha’s holy relic.
  • Wat Yai Chai Mang Khon - 16:15 (30 minutes): Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, or the “Great Monastery of Auspicious Victory,” features a high prang (tower) and dates back to the late 14th century during King U Thong’s reign. Monks still reside here. The monastery got its current name in the late 16th century when a large chedi was built. A large Reclining Buddha statue wrapped in yellow cloth faces east. The temple was destroyed during the 1767 invasion but remains a must-visit.

Beautiful sites but poor guide. - We visited beautiful sites, but we got little to none explanation from our guide about the sites. It didn't feel like a guided tour but like we hired someone to drive us around.
