Ancient city
The Si Satchanalai Historical Park is a historical park in Si Satchanalai district, Sukhothai Province, northern Thailand. The park covers the ruins of Si Satchanalai and Chaliang. Si Satchanalai, which literally means "City of good people", was founded in 1250 as the second center of the Sukhothai Kingdom and as a residence of the crown prince in the 13th and 14th centuries.
The city was rectangular in shape. In the 16th century, a 5-metre high wall with an upstream moat was built to fend off the growing Burmese attacks. The location of the town was facilitated by two neighboring dominant hills. The park is maintained by the Fine Arts Department of Thailand with help from UNESCO, which has declared it a World Heritage Site together with the associated historic parks in Kamphaengphet and Sukhothai. Similar to Sukhothai Historical Park, Si Satchanalai Historical Park attracts thousands of visitors each year, who marvel at the ancient Buddha figures, palace buildings and ruined temples. The park is easily toured by bicycle or even on foot.

🇹🇭 An ancient scent of Sri Satchanalai
For those who would like to learn more about ancient Thailand, here is recommended. Not too crowded like Sukhothai Historical Park, allowing to deeply touch the scent of ancient age of Sri Satchanalai city where was one of the satellite towns of Sukhothai Kingdom. In the past, the Sri Satchanalai was a residence of crown princes from Sukhothai. Once came to the area of the ancient town, I feeled its magical power and fully experienced the ancientness. #Sukhothai #Thailand #historicalsightseeing
Even it is quite far away from the downtown, it is worth to visit once. You’ll learn more about Thai history. A motorcycle or car rental is recommended rather than taking public transportation.

Si Satchanalai Historical Park
#thailandtripThe magic of this park is the level of original detail that can be seen. Minimal restoration gives one the chance to see the true age and patina of ancient ruins. This is the perfect, next-day follow-up to a visit to Sukathai Historical Park, where the ruins have undergone a greater level of restoration. Another ancient city during the Sukhothai era. Perfect temples and preserved historical places with wonderful infrastructure in the past.
