Ayutthaya was the capital of Siam from 1350 until 1767. During its heyday, merchants came from afar to trade.

Sukhothai, meaning the ‘dawn of happiness,’ was the capital of the first Thai kingdom which flourished from the mid-13th to the late 14th centuries. It laid the cultural and political foundation for the realm that became Thailand and this time is viewed as the golden era of Thai civilisation. For example, the Thai alphabet was created by King Ramkhamhaeng the Great in this city. The remains of this kingdom can be seen in a 45 sq-km World Heritage Site containing 193 antiquities of royal palaces, temples, city gates, walls, moats and dams spread amid ponds, rice paddies and villages.

This is seriously good fun and highly educational as we get an insight into organic farming practices.

In the evening, we enjoy a Northern Thai dinner, enhanced with folk dances and talks from hill tribe members, at Benjarong Khantoke.
Overnight at Na Nirand Chiang Mai.
Day 8 : Chiang Mai (B / L / D)
Today’s activities involve a fine blend of spirituality and cultural pursuits. An early start is rewarded with participation in a solemn monk alms offering in which we ‘gain merit’ by donating food in return for a blessing. Buddhists believe this ritual is rewarded with happiness.
We return to the hotel for breakfast and then drive up Serpentine Road to Wat Doi Suthep Temple. This mountain-top shrine, which dates back to 1383, affords spectacular views of Chiang Mai city and the sprawling Ping Valley. We then head to Chiang Mai’s biggest market, Talat Warorod and continue by rickshaw to the city’s oldest temple, Wat Chedi Luang.

We then head back to overnight at the resort.

Day 9 : Chiang Mai - Chiang Rai (B / L / D)
Our diverse exploration continues to the far northern city of Chiang Rai. Known as the gateway to the Golden Triangle border area of Thailand, Laos and Myanmar, this is positioned at the heart of some spectacular mountainous scenery. Founded by King Mengrai in 1262 as part of the Lao-Thai Lanna kingdom, it did not become Siamese territory until 1786. Chiang Rai’s rich past is evident in the city’s cultural heritage, unique language, arts and historical sites.
After breakfast, we set off at 7 am on a 186-km drive north. On arrival, we visit Wat Rong Khun. Also known as the White Temple, this was created by celebrated Thai artist Chalermchai Kositpipat. It features a fine blend of traditional Buddhist art and contemporary themes and the exterior is decorated with small pieces of mirrored glass that add to its dramatic beauty.
After lunch, we drive to Black House, Baan Dam, an impressive structure created by Thai artist Thawan Duchanee. The multifunctional building is an eclectic mix of traditional Northern Thai buildings, interspersed with modern designs in a combined art studio, museum and home. We then check-in at the hotel for overnight.
