7 Days Phuket to Phi Phi - tinyurl.com/2nxwakja
7 Days Koh Samui to Koh Phangan - tinyurl.com/5xe7amyw
Great video from Thai people ❤️
These trips are so overpriced Paddy. You cannot be serious.
@@saltycrisps1072 what?!?! You were shown a $30 a night hotel option, the sites were THB50 each, about $2, and the boat trip price was for the ENTIRE boat. If you think this is expensive then not quite sure what you were expecting.
@@SeanHendy 1799 usd pp twin share you can do this same trip with better accommodation all your drinks all the activities for well and truly under half of this price not twin share whole room to yourself even. Go ahead and see for yourself then tell me if I'm wrong. And this is not using any special discounts .
😘💓
Just went back from there 2 days ago
Old temple really feel mysterious and if anyone have budget... be sure to grab River Prawn at restaurant.
The anceint city full of history
a relic of old Kingdom
You are walking in the Grand Palace of the Ayutthaya Kingdom. And try to imagine that everything is plastered with gold, just like the Grand Palace in Bangkok. but has a much larger area.
I remembered my Thai school year , I was on the bus with a Myanmar friend going to the north. On the way the bus stopped for gas at night and we both just woke up. My friend asked me where were we and I answered Ayuthaya, then she paused for a minute , looked at me and whispered "Sorry" then we both had bursted out laughing.
That Gold Buddha temple really makes me wish I knew Thai. The music and talking was so calm and peaceful. Just wish I knew what was being said.
The 3 spiked chedis in a row can also be seen in the Mortal Kombat films and games. The reclining Buddha is in the Street Fighter 2 game. The grounds surrounding the head in the tree were in Jean Claude Van Damme's film Kickboxer, during his training sequence. There is also a massive white pyramid temple ten minutes away by tuk tuk, and a toy museum that boasts to have one of the largest action figure collections on earth. I suggest 2 days for Ayutthaya.
This Thailand is really a fascinating country with an amazing culture even though they are the youngest culture in South East Asia ,compared to the Khemr, or Malays or Javanese .Truelly amazing the way they adapted to Buddhas life teachings .
Most of the Buddha heads are missing because the Burmese who invaded Ayutthaya were looking for Golden Buddha statues. Apparently, the Thais would cover their golden Buddha statues in plater to hide them from invaders, but the Burmese discovered this. Most golden Buddha statues were looted and melted by the Burmese, but one actually survived and it is on display at Wat Traimit in Bangkok’s Chinatown.
Golden Buddha information from Wikipedia.
- The Golden Buddha, officially titled Phra Phuttha Maha Suwanna Patimakon (Thai: พระพุทธมหาสุวรรณปฏิมากร; Sanskrit: Buddhamahāsuvarṇapaṭimākara), commonly known in Thai as Phra Sukhothai Traimit (Thai: พระสุโขทัยไตรมิตร), is a gold Maravijaya Attitude seated Buddharupa statue, with a weight of 5.5 tonnes (5,500 kilograms). It is located in the temple of Wat Traimit, Bangkok, Thailand. At one point in its history the statue was covered with a layer of stucco and coloured glass to conceal its true value, and it remained in this condition for almost 200 years, ending up as what was then a pagoda of minor significance. During relocation of the statue in 1955, the plaster was chipped off and the gold was revealed.
- The statue is 3 metres (9.8 ft) tall and weighs 5.5 tonnes (5.4 long tons; 6.1 short tons). (According to another account, the statue measures 3.91 meters from base to top, and 3.10 meters across the lap from knee to knee.) It can be disassembled into nine pieces.[7] The statue was housed in a wat in Ayutthaya until the mid 19th century, and its provenance from Ayutthaya excludes the possibility of it having been made after about 1750.
One of your best videos Paddy! You’ve motivated me to stop procrastinating and finally get up to Ayutthaya.
เมืองไทยเมืองพุทธ เมืองแห่งพระพุทธศาสนา เมืองแห่งรอยยิ้มและน้ำใจ🙏🏻🇹🇭❤️
In Ta Prohm tempel at Angkor Park in Cambodia you can find a similar face surrounded by tree roots.
😉😉😇
Incredible sunset ! 🌺🌺🌺we love you Paddy
This is superb Paddy. I love it when you’re relaxed and clearly having the time of your life. What a great series this has proven to be.
Wonderful vid Paddy. Almost an overload of places to go and stay and enjoy one province after another. It is impossible to go to Thailand for less than a year or two with so many places to sample and visit. I think I note 90% of the places you have shown us as places to go and experience. See you soon and thank you as always Paddy!
I know right, this is the reason why it's taken almost a year to get to this point, THAILAND just doesn't stop!
Hey I was there the week before... Absolutely stunning.
Another Awesome video Paddy . Ayutthaya is a very beautiful place. I am overwhelmed. Love all the temples. I rode an elephant once. Never want to do it again. It was very tiring. Your are a master of sunset shots and cool music.
Well said
Paddy, I play that music at 14:16 almost every day, its called the chant of Metta. Like you I feel something when I walk into temples. A peaceful place too sit and contemplate on what is good in the world. Keep up the good work. Look forward as always to your next vlog. Just had to cancel my trip on Friday due to covid :(
I love Ayutthaya and always make a point of spending some time there. Thanks for making me want to get back there even more now! Keep up the great work.
Paddy - You have had many vlogs visiting countless temples. But this one might be my favorite. I have been to Angkor Wat in Cambodia, and these places remind of that minus the hordes of tourists. Paid off to come early for sure! Like Machu Picchu, I can sit and stare at these places for hours and never feel the need to leave. Thank you for this, Paddy!!
Amazing as always. Another place in Thailand to add to the bucket list!
Definitely!
HI PADDY, GREAT VID WALKING AROUND THE ANCIENT CITY OF AYUTTHAYA, WENT THERE AROUND 6YEARS AGO AND THE TREE GROWING AROUND THE BUDDHAS HEAD IS SO AMAZING ITS STAYED IN MY MIND EVER SINCE, THERE ARE SIGHTS LIKE THIS EVERYWHERE IN SIAM, TRULY AN AMAZING COUNTRY, KEEP UP THE FANTASTIC JOURNEY ON DREEMY, MANY THANKS ADRIAN.
I love watching these district videos. I was born in Thailand, and much of my family resides in a small district called Phichai. Ive never seen someone explore there yet as it's quite unheard of, but I would love to see a video there!!
Hi Paddy, To answer your question: The Burmese army stole the Buddha heads when they invaded the old capital of Ayutthaya in about 1767. This was the ultimate insult to the Thais. Legend has it that the head surrounded by tree roots was dropped by a fleeing Burmese soldier. Cheers. Love Ayutthaya!
I don’t usually comment on videos but paddy!, you’ve done such an amazing job on this ancient province superb videography nice ambiance and quite aesthetic.
ps. the history of those headless buddha statues are quite grim, they were beheaded during the sack of Ayutthaya in 1767 along with the city😞
Ah ok thanks ☺️
Historians estimate that by the time of the 17th century there were over 400 temples in Ayutthaya. Most were destroyed when Ayutthaya fell to the Burmese in 1767 with the invading armies blamed for cutting off the heads and arms of many of the Buddha images. But these acts of destruction also left behind one of Thailand’s most iconic images that is reproduced on artwork and postcards. Located by the walls of
Exactly, that war between the Burmese and Siam more than 250 years ago is still sitting inside the head of many thai people.
The Burmese were looking for golden Buddha statues.
Burmese burned almost entire city and Steal tons of gold that enveloped the pagodas and the Buddha images.
Thanks Paddy....you have given me a bucket list of places I never considered or knew about....I live in Ratchaburi and need to get back out there and enjoy this amazing country...Thank you.
That tree is poetry ❤️🙏
100%
Thank you for youtube. Im from Viet Nam, in 2017 years, I had visited Ayuthaya, I remenbered celebrate with my love in here. Now, I single, but I hopping will come back Thai Land. Thank you so much ! So nice video !
I visited Ayutthaya in 1999. It looks so different now. I don't think I had to pay anything to view the temple's. I arrived by train and I remember being ferried across the river in a small boat to get to the town. One of the temple's had a stairway down into the centre where there were murals painted. I must go back again.
Visited in 2018. Cost around $12 a night with breakfast included for 2. Our room was in the back of a restaurant. Was over 100* F every day there.
You edit your videos so well...btw my hubby and I started watching to learn about Thailand but we keep watching because we love you! Looking forward to wherever else you decide to travel 💕
The Buddha statues are mostly headless because they were looted during the sacking of Ayutthaya. It’s easier to loot just the statues’ head than loot the statues as a whole
Thx for the tips
Amazing vid! Loving it! Always such a pleasure. Thanks so much! : )
Great editing on this one! Thanks for taking us along Paddy!
Super video! Fantastic edits!👏👏👏👏
This is such a wonderful tour! Thank you ❤️
This is a great video and exactly the info/inspo I needed, thanks!!
Your videos are getting better and better. Love it
Paddy, definitely incredible place to visit. Thank you for putting this together and showing us what Ayutthaya has to offer away from the usual beaches and nightlife. The missing heads from the smaller statues, quite simply, the whole thing is too heavy to pick up and so over the hundreds of years, 'souvenir hunters' would have just taken what they could carry, thus the head.
Entry price of 50baht per site, even if more than Thai price, is very reasonable indeed.
Great video. Hope you're doing well and enjoying your travels. All the very best from a very chilly UK.
Hey Patty about the heads…apparently when the Burmese overtook the city they knocked off all the heads in a demonstration of disrespect
Brilliant video😊
Just beautiful
So lovely. Brought back memories.
Brilliant 👍
Thank you! You video is informative
Outstanding work !! Really appreciate the information youve been providing as of late. Well done!
Love all your video's
Love your VDO. Thank you so much for this thing.
Fantastic video. Thank you so much Paddy.
Really really beautiful ! Great video again Paddy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you for this video ill be adding ayutthaya to my trip now x
Wow that is so cool Paddy!!!!

Simply Awesome keep it up 👍
So well put together 👏 feels like we're there ❤ Beautiful work.
Great place👍😀
Awesome videos and you have done amazing in just 1 year - wow
Fantastic video. Paddy at his best! I hope to visit this magical place one day.
Great guide
WOW Paddy your game is spot on. I’ve arrived in Thailand with a go pro and am playing to make videos for family. The level of work it must take you to make fabulous content blows me away. Thanks for the amazing content.
Thanks info, it's helpful for my trip in Oct
These videos are amazing quality
sooo beautiful peaceful. Thanks Paddy for the tour. Plan to visit thailand in Oct
Absolutely amazing. Ur living my dream! I’m trying to get to thailand as we speak so hard!!!
Going in two weeks - love the video. Will be there alone so good to see others doing the same!
We’ve been to Ayutthaya twice and the first time it was temporary free for everyone at all the sites. We were so lucky!
We believe the heads are fine because they’ve been plundered in the past.
It’s quite common.
Thanks for a great video 💛
Great vlog Paddy well done
Good job Paddy, Perfectly video.
Thanks for the perfect tour guide, buddy. I watched your video on Friday. Then on Saturday, I went and did six of the best, including Sala. Flawless! Amazing!
Haha, I love the way you talk about the food ;P Stay champ mate! 😘 ps. People come by with gold leaves putting them on the statue to show respect and worship. So the golden flakes we've seen in your video are fairly new 🙏🏼👏
Hi Paddy, I love your work! I was told when I visited Ayutthaya that the Burmese army knocked the heads off the buddhas when they overran the city all those years ago.
I am headed there next month for the fist time. This video is terrific and informative!! Thank you.
superb i can’t give words
Hi. Loving your recent video tour of ayutthaya. Definitely will visit when I can leave London in May. Funny that I'm actually thai born but never been to ayutthaya. I c you mention about the heat of the sun. At least you have the heat and sun. Thanks again for a fabulous tour clip of ayutthaya can't wait 😀 😊.
😮😮🙏 OMG!! Thailand is amazing ayutthaya beautiful.❤❤🤟👍👍🇹🇭🇹🇭😮😮
We followed your advice (mostly).
Wonderful experience. 🙏
Thanks Paddy, your video it very details and organized, I am going to follow your itinerary to visit Ayutthaya 👏👏👏👍👍👍
❤️✨As always wonderful film! ❤️🙏🏻Paddy Have a beautiful day!
Simply stunning 👏🙏
Thanks a lot 😊
Like your planning and expression, I decided to go there in Oct because of your introduction. Tks
big thanks Paddy just Amazing
Glad you enjoyed it
Great guide! We had to stay a few extra nights here as there are so many things to see and take in. Thanks so much 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful video Paddy
I wanted to go here pre pandemic. Its on my must do list even more after I have watched your beautifully shot vlog. You didnt break any equipment this time well done.
Ha ha I watched it again and forgot I already commented.
Would you be so kind to show us more temples that look very similar? And, while your at it, some more hotels and restaurants? That would be invigorating and the ultimate mental stimulation. it would give us a great insight on the integrity of Thailand. Thanks bunches! 555
Just beautiful 😍😍
It really is!
I've been there, and it was extremely interesting. 👍
Nice, easy-going, Dreamy, roller-coaster-ride . . . beauty production! dcb
Glad you enjoyed it!
I live in Ayutthaya. Thank you for visiting i like your video 👍♥️🇹🇭
Breathe taking and, Memorizing beauty from the past 🙏.
Great video, I was there back in 2019 but only did a day trip from Bangkok. Might have to go back and stay there a day or two so I can check it out at sunset from the river, awesome view
Facinating., My Birthplace City
IMO concerning nature taking over, Ankor Wat is hard to beat. The size of the trees growing on some of the structures is just incredible.
Great happy and sad memories from this place 🙂🙂
I can’t wait for you to go to Chon Buri, my home province.
Well done Paddy, this is one of the better videos you made. Nice vibes
Much appreciated
Paddy, thanks for the great suggestions to hire a TukTuk for the day to move around the city and see all the sights. We went to the train station and as per you other suggestion to get an early start, arranged for a 7:45 pickup at our hotel to visit attractions before the heat and the crowds.
This is in top 5 highlights of my trip around Thailand! Highly recommended to go and explore these wonders. A half a day trip from Bangkok is enough. You will get tired because of the heat so don’t think you can do it all day let alone riding around on a bike.
Oh and about the missing heads the tour guide said its because they are easier to steal instead of the whole statue. Seems legit 😅
I thought the Assamese smashed the statues in an attempt to destroy the temples.
Good stuff! Super Vlog. I spent 2 nights in Ayutthaya back in May of 2000. Almost 22 years ago. I think the whole time I was there I only saw 2 other westerners and no Thai tourists. Very empty and quiet.
The city you have to visit!
