Ayuttaya

Our day in ayuttaya was amazing. We rented these rickety bikes and dove into the traffic (including crazy intersection with no traffic signals). Rode to the ruins and attempted to get to the floating market. More about that later. There are soooo many amazing ruins here it's crazy. Ayuttaya used to be the trading capital of Asia until the Burmese came in and destroyed the city and burned it down.
One of the cool things was a Buddha head that a tree had grown around. Then we too tuk tuks down and toured around the city on a boat, making stops to view temples and more ruins.
Then back to the guest house for a relaxing beer on the deck with Naing and Gohing our WONDERFUL AND CUTE hosts.
