Full Description
Escape the city for a full-day journey into Thailand’s traditional markets and ancient royal heritage.
Your day begins with a visit to the world-famous Maeklong Railway Market, one of Thailand’s most unique markets set directly on active train tracks. Watch in amazement as vendors swiftly retract their awnings and goods moments before the train passes through.
Next, continue to Damnoen Saduak Floating Market. Ride a traditional paddle boat through the canals and soak in the lively atmosphere as local vendors sell fresh fruits, snacks, and handmade products from their boats.
After exploring the markets, enjoy a delicious Thai lunch before heading to Ayutthaya, the former capital of Siam and a UNESCO-listed historical park.
In the afternoon, explore three of Ayutthaya’s most impressive temples:
• Wat Mahathat, famous for the Buddha head entwined in tree roots • Wat Phra Si Sanphet, once part of the royal palace complex • Wat Lokayasutharam, home to the giant reclining Buddha image
