Sukhothai is an ancient city in the north of Thailand, known as the ‘Dawn of Happiness’. Built in the 13th century, it’s now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with the remnants of its former grandeur still visible in the ruins of its ancient temples, palaces and city walls. The city is filled with ancient monuments, such as the Royal Palace, the Wat Mahathat and the Wat Sri Chum – all of which are illuminated by nightfall to create an enchanting atmosphere. Visitors can also explore the nearby archaeological park, take part in traditional Thai activities such as pottery-making, or simply take a leisurely boat ride along the Yom River. Sukhothai is a wonderful destination for those who want to explore the past and experience modern Thai culture.
