In the 13th century, Ayutthaya was the capital of the Thai Empire. At the peak of its glory, this complex was the center of Southeast Asian innovation, art and trade. In 1767, the Burmese army finally broke into the city, burned the libraries, destroyed the Wats and killed the king. The surviving Thai military fled south and founded the new capital near Bangkok. Today the remaining ruins of Ayutthaya are scattered over a large area, so we had to load back into a steamy van to travel from monument to monument.
