Ayutthaya - Video Guide of Thailand's Ancient Capital City
Ayutthaya is one of the most popular places to visit near Bangkok. Read my full guide to Ayutthaya here:
Visiting Ayutthaya, Thailand, is one of the best day trips to take from Bangkok. It's Thailand's ancient capital city, second after Sukhothai. The city has a very long history with many ups and downs. It was overthrown by the Burmese in the mid 1700's and many of the gems and treasures from the temples were moved the Yangon at the Shwedagon Pagoda (another very impressive site if you visit Burma). I have visited Ayutthaya a number of times while living in Thailand, but a few weeks ago I joined a small travel blogger group and we toured a few of the most important temples, and I also snuck away for some food and refreshment! The Ayutthaya historical park is the most significant section of the city, an area where there's a concentration of temples and historical sites to visit. The city in now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The first temple we stopped at was Wat Yai Chai Mongkon (วัดใหญ่่ชัยมงคล), a must visit temple in Ayutthaya. The temple is recognized by its huge chedi that leans a little to the side, sort of like the Leaning Tower of Pisa. At the site, you can then climb a flight of stairs to the middle level section that offers a nice view of the surroundings. Surrounding the temple are many statues of Buddha, most of them wrapped in orange cloth and in many symmetrical patterns. Just like Wat Pho in Bangkok, there's also a reclining Buddha, though this one made of stone and wrapped in yellow cloth instead of gold. I had visited the temple before, but had never stopped to see the palace of King U-Thong and his many roosters. After Wat Yai Chai Mongkon (วัดใหญ่่ชัยมงคล) in Ayutthaya we proceeded to Wat Phanan Choeng (วัดพนัญเชิงวรวิหาร), a temple that's famous for housing a 19 meter high golden seated Buddha. The temple is a cross between traditional Thai and Chinese beliefs so there are lots of cross similarities and the temple is very Chinese Confucian in appearance. There are many section of Wat Phanan Choeng (วัดพนัญเชิงวรวิหาร), and you can spend some time walking around each section of the temple. It's nearly always busy and bustling with people, especially on the weekends. Finally, the famous Wat Mahathat (วัดมหาธาตุ) is one of the most visited and well known temple complexes in the Ayutthaya historical park. It's the temple where the famous head of Buddha wrapped within the banyan tree is - that's always a favorite place for everyone to take pictures! The rest of the temple is not in that great of condition, but it's mostly in ruins. The temple is still nice to walk around for a few minutes.
Ayutthaya is hot, and when you are walking around the temples, you're going to sweat for sure! So be prepared for the sun and always remember to drink plenty of water. I also like to stock up on hydration by having a fresh coconut to drink the water. Finally, whenever you visit any city in Thailand it's important to eat and to bring back some of the local speciality snacks. In Ayutthaya there's nothing more famous than a sweet called roti sai mai (โรตีสายไหม), and if you don't eat this, many Thais will say you didn't even go to Ayutthaya. It's basically a thin crepe pancake that's combined with cotton candy like sugar, wrapped into a little taco and consumed. It is very sweet and full of sugar, but it is the taste of Ayutthaya and should be sampled! Have a great trip visiting the ancient capital city of Thailand!

HATYAI LUXURY GUIDE | Best Sights, Food & Hotel
It’s always amazing when a destination really delights and surprises and that’s exactly what happened for me in HatYai, Thailand. This was a long weekend trip for me from Kuala Lumpur by train and it is one I hope to do again soon. From seeing the tallest Buddha statue in south Thailand, experiencing my first floating market, eating lunch in a treehouse, and sipping cocktails each day at happy hour … it was a perfect escape from KL. I even tried dental tourism for the first time and that turned out great! #HatYai ##hatyaifloatingmarket #hatyaimunicipalpark #hatyaistreetfood
PRO TIP! Stay at the Centara HatYai hotel and book a half-day car and driver service with the knowledgeable and fun 22-year Centara veteran, Roger. He’ll get you to spots that normal taxis and tuk tuk’s can’t access.
HatYai Travel Guide: What to Eat, Drink & See
Below you’ll find links to everywhere I went, along with the videos I shot of the train ride from Kuala Lumpur to Padang Besar and back and the full review of the Centara HatYai Hotel:
The Containers – don’t miss jacking up on pure Arabica bean coffee and devouring a scrumptious breakfast before you start your day in HatYai at this very special cafe. Their coffee jelly is a dream I keep playing over and over again in my head, it was SO YUMMY! They also have a full menu complete with healthy and naughty treats like burgers so be sure to go hungry, no matter if it’s morning or night.
HatYai Municipal Park – this is the most impressive and non-commercial/touristy feeling Buddha statues and park I have been to in Thailand and absolutely a MUST for anyone visiting HatYai. Several people told me it is also the #1 stop to go to watch the sunset, which I plan to do on my next trip. Check out my friend Emily’s blog for details (there isn’t an official social media page for it that I could find).
Centara HatYai Hotel – this wonderful gem is located right downtown and offered up such spacious and well-decorated rooms, perfect service, and festive nightly cocktail hour that I thought I was in a 5-star hotel. It is affordable luxury at its best.
Alive restaurant & bar – if Tarzan and Jane were hipster foodies, this would be their number one favourite restaurant in HatYai! This open air hotspot is something truly special and a great place to come as a solo traveller, on a date, or with the whole family. It’s menu is chockablock full of fresh delights like a deconstructed Tom Yum Goong in fried rice form and one of the most tasty Thai salads with fresh squid I’ve ever eaten.
HatYai Khlong Hae Floating Market – I couldn’t find an official page for this so it was the team at Centara Hotel that helped me plan my visit here. Open from 4pm (not 3pm as stated online according to the Centara team) Friday to Sunday, this is a VERY touristy thing to do but it’s still a fabulous time. For me, the floating stalls were a bit too over-the-top with costumes but on the “land side” of the river are rows and rows of dee-lish Thai street food and what I’m sure is a fun night market (I was there during the day). From sweets to savoury and even clothes and beer stalls, you’ll find something to tempt you here.
SmileDent Dental Clinic - this was my first time exploring medical or dental tourism and it was a great success! I had read that dentists were amazing and that it was growing more popular for foreigners to go to the dentist in HatYai so I tried out SmileDent Dental Clinic for a teeth cleaning. Their office was so pretty and shiny white, and everyone was so kind. I'm also looking into going back to have two veneers done, so stay tuned! I absolutely recommend them and loved that it's a mostly female office as you'll see!
Girl Power!

BEYOND THE TOURISTY AREAS OF BANGKOK | Talat Phlu, Thon Buri, Bangkok, Thailand
This is what it looks like beyond the touristy areas of Bangkok. This quiet Thai neighbourhood is in the local area of Talat Phlu, Thon Buri in Bangkok, Thailand.
I didn't know what I would find down this local Thai street, but it looked quite interesting. So I decided to take a walk down.
Within minutes, I already knew I made a great choice.
There's were olden style Thai homes, modified motorbikes to transport goods and even a local fire station hidden at the very end of the street. Which was unexpected.
But beyond the street is where it got really interesting. I continued walking and it turned into a quiet residential area.
It was very interesting to have experience that, to say the very least.
Locals were around doing their daily routines, like watering the plants, washing the dishes and even playing in a small blow up pool.
It was quite surreal witnessing how some people in this world lives. It gives you a different perspective on life.
