Contest: Your favourite Tourist Spot or Place//The Ancient Ayutthaya

Hello fellow steemians. Hope you're doing great. Travelling is my favorite thing to do, so I am really excited for this task. I would like to thank first @badshal @belenguerra and @bright-obias who come up with this brilliant contest.
We know that a lot of people really love to travel. There is a satisfying feeling earned from unwinding and exploring something new and unique. When I travelled Thailand last May 2019,
I was really mesmerized by the unique charm of Ayutthaya Historical Park. Ayutthaya was used to be the capital of Thailand after Sukhothai. This old capital of Thailand came to a brutal end when it was attacked by the Burmese. They burned the whole city, but due to some reconstructions the ruins turned out how it become now. This park covers the ruins of the old city of Ayutthaya, Phra Nakkon Si Ayutthaya Province, Thailand. The city was founded by King Ramathibodi in 1351.
I was really fascinated by the place because I felt that I was teleported from the past. This was a realization of my wildest dream, to be part of an ancient movie. This experience was so surreal for me. I was really glad I made it myself.

 I visited the place once, and it was my satisfying travel alone. Going to Ayutthaya, I rode a third class train for 15 baht for almost 2 hours. This was from Hua Lamping train station to Ayutthaya train station. I was so amazed to get a chance riding with the locals. I couldn't blink my eyes, I couldn't afford to miss the places that I passed on my way.  From the train station, I had  a little walk, then I rode a boat for 5 baht to the old city ruins. I just opted to ride a bicycle to explore the place for only 50 baht rental fee.

It was the cheapest way to explore this wonderful masterpiece. As always, I couldn't resist to sit for a while to taste another mouth-watering and well-packed Thai street food just on reach. To add more, they are paired with heavenly overflowing iced cold drinks like simple soda, coffee, teas and fruit drinks, so perfect for the humid weather.
Shifting to right-hand drive is very new and exciting for me, equally same emotions upon looking at these unbelievable ruined temples in Ayutthaya.
The structures are so intellectually constructed using the old precise technology.
They really show how the people before had valued their temples, so much with their religion. Indeed, such an impressive devotion.

 I would definitely love to visit the place again, and by this time I hope I could bring my family. The place is not just architecturally amazing, but it also tells how  the Thai value their spiritual and cultural heritage. Such an amazing achievement amidst the modern time.
 I could not forget this travel because it was my first encounter with the elephants. I thought I could only see them on television, but I was overwhelmed. I really took picture with them, as far as I could get.

The experience was such a childish fulfillment.
For those who are planning to travel Thailand, I hope you wouldn't miss Ayutthaya Historical Park. It is a very different and rewarding experience...guaranteed. I want it to prove it yourself, do visit Ayutthaya and enjoy
