A visit to Wat Mahathat in the heart of Ayutthaya's historic island

🛕✨ When talking about Ayutthaya, one must-visit destination is "Wat Mahathat," a significant site in the heart of this historic city. It takes visitors on a journey back in time to experience the charm of ancient civilization and its invaluable heritage. This is a must-see check-in spot, especially for the extraordinary landmark, the "Buddha head entwined in tree roots." This one-of-a-kind phenomenon perfectly blends nature and ancient art, creating an image that is both sacred and astonishing.

In addition, the temple is dotted with numerous stupas and Buddha statues, allowing visitors to stroll around, soak in the atmosphere of the past, and imagine the grandeur of Ayutthaya. Wat Mahathat was one of the most important temples of its era, both in terms of religion and politics. Today, though only ruins remain, they are filled with stories that have never faded. 🙏🏻🥰🗺️
