We were told it would cost us 50 THB just to go in to this ruins that one can behold in the eyes from outside! A bit of rare shades around it, take snap and move on...
Roosters. Well, really rooster figurines/statues. Hundreds of 'em. All over the place. Some as high as eight feet tall, maybe taller. Well the Temple is apparently older than Ayutthaya itself. And why the roosters? Well, why not, if you are king. Apparently the king who...More
This temple is not specular in any way, I would say more fascinating. The dozens and dozens of rooster statues are interesting. It will cost 20 baht to visit and I think the temple could use every cent to try and help maintain it for...More

We were actually looking for a short cut through to The Royal Palace. We paid 20 baht to wander around. There are some ruins, as well as a working temple. It was more impressive than anticipated and well worth a 15 minute wander.

My kids wanted to see the black Buddha so after driving around finally we found it . Yes its in ruins but it still a Buddhist temple and the ruins also date back before the formation of Ayutthaya. The main Stupa is surrounded by lions...More
Upon entering Wat Thammikarat or Wat Thummikarat it appears to be largely in ruins, but is actually an active temple with monks living there. The most interesting feature is a central temple surrounded by singha or lion sculptures. And roosters - lots of roosters!
