Nakhon Luang Castle, ancient site - Ayutthaya

#VisitAyutthaya
📍Address: Tambon Nakhon Luang
Amphoe Nakhon Luang
Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province

💞 Recommended reason: See the beauty
of "Prasat Nakhon Luang"
A fusion of architecture
Thai-Khmer, a pair of Ayutthaya

The interesting thing about the castle
is that it is built entirely of bricks, located on a hill
Made by filling the soil to make it high
With a balcony surrounding
It is square
Stacked in three layers
Each layer has dozens of doors to the top
Curved balcony Each layer has a prang
For each of the four corners
And in the middle is a prang

There are interesting things to see inside the castle:
• Buddha statue inside the prang
• Four footprints of the Buddha inside the four-sided pavilion

• For those who are into the spiritual side, come to worship and ask for blessings
Lord Ganesha sitting on a throne of skulls
An ancient 300-year-old Lord Ganesha
It is very beautiful

• The floating moonstone
It is believed to be the Dharmachakra
It is said that
It floated down from the north
Following the Pa Sak River, but it is not known where it came from

This Nakhon Luang Castle
is therefore an important archaeological site
that you must visit at least once

🕰️Opening hours: 06.00 - 18.00 hrs.
