Ayutthaya 1300 a.d. Temple Complex

 So, we took a day trip to Ayutthaya, where the king lived in the 1300’s. It is now a UNESCO world site. 


At that time this is where the king lived. All of these buildings were covered in gold. I’ll bet it was a beautiful sight! 



When the Burmese came into Thailand they cut off the heads of the Buddhas. 


Here is another temple that we visited in this area. 

 
I love this image. The Buddha in the tree. 






A hand of a very large Buddha 



This is what the temple complex looked like, 
back in the day.




It is a show of respect if you donate
You can place a gold robe
On a Buddha 

 




You are looking at an original wood beam 
Dating back to the
1300’s
