Thailand Travel｜The ancient ruins here are more rustic than those in Cambodia, exuding a sense of tranquility and Zen everywhere.

Thailand has many well-known tourist destinations, but there is a lesser-known place called Sukhothai - the birthplace of Thai civilization. Sukhothai is a Pali word meaning 'the dawn of happiness'. The ancient ruins here are more rustic than those in Cambodia, exuding a sense of tranquility and Zen everywhere. Sukhothai, the capital of the first Siamese kingdom in the 13th-14th centuries, is one of the most remarkable architectural sites in the world. As the capital of the dynasty, Sukhothai Old City has over a hundred Buddhist temples and stupas, and more than a thousand Buddha statues. If the weather is good, Sukhothai is even more beautiful. The entrance fee to Sukhothai Historical Park is 100 Thai Baht. In Sukhothai, I stayed at a guesthouse right across from the park, very close. The area around the guesthouse is full of food options, with a vegetable and fruit market and a 7-Eleven convenience store diagonally opposite, making it very convenient. You can rent a bicycle for 30 Thai Baht a day.
