[Thailand (Ayutthaya)] The symbol of the Ayutthaya ruins is here!

Wat Phra Mahathat, located in the center of the Ayutthaya ruins

The pagoda is said to have once been shining with gold, but it was destroyed by the Burmese invasion, and the ruins are filled with headless Buddha statues and collapsed bricks!

The symbol of this place is the "Buddha's head covered by the roots of the Bodhi tree."

The Bodhi tree grew from under the Buddha's head, and then the Buddha's head was absorbed into it, and after many years, it has become what it is today!

⚠️When taking photos, you need to position your head lower than the Buddha's head! So there is a place to sit! It is essential to sit and take photos!
