Description
Travel back in time with this interactive, live-streamed online experience as we visit Wat Yai Chai Mongkhon, one of the ancient temple ruins in Ayutthaya, the former capital of Thailand. The temple was discovered in the second half of the 14th century. During the Burmese invasion of 1767, the temple was largely destroyed.
On this virtual tour, I will walk around the ruins to show you countless statues of the Buddha and tell you the significance of various sitting positions. We will also have an interactive chat about the history of this ancient Thai city, the temple and Thai culture, and learn more about how it also ties up with the religious mythology of South Asia.

Anne
My name is Mattanaporn, but like all Thai people, I have a nickname - Anne. Guess that's a lot easier! I am an official TAT licensed (Tourist Authority of Thailand) tour guide. I love to travel, and it's my passion to show tourists my beautiful country and teach them more about Thai culture and the Thai way of life. An office job is not my thing; I was born to be a guide, work outside, meet new people from all over the world and make them smile in the Land of Smiles! If you want to experience the Thai capital uniquely and locally, then join me.
