To see how everything was built, it was very uncomplicated and beautiful! The only thing I found horrible was the elephant husbandry! One baby elephant had chains on his feet and the big elephants were kept for people to ride on! I thought that was terrible! Absolutely horrible! But apart from that it was nice just the elephants really need to be treated much much better or released or put in care where they are treated well!

The parc is huge and very beautiful, and we went a day where no one was there so it felt like we had the place for ourselves !

In the heart of Samut Prakan in Bangkok lies the educational and picturesque Ancient City of Thailand (Muan Boran). With over 300 hectares of historical architecture and modern art, the park is renowned as one of the largest outdoor museums on Earth. Ideal for visitors of all ages, the Ancient City allows you to get to know the country in a unique and interactive way.

Travel Back In Time To Ancient Thailand

Upon entry into the park, get to see over 116 scaled-down Thai monuments, historically accurate to the finest details. Some are reconstructions of famous temples, buildings, palaces, markets, and ruins from past eras of Thailand. Others are memorials of original relics exhibited at the park. The attractions are segregated into sections, depicting the country’s diverse culture, including the widely known Rangsan Zone.

An Adventure To Remember

Surrounding the Erawan museum, you will find a fairytale garden, perfect for an idyllic walk. Around it, you will encounter modern art, bridges, and unique sculptures. You can also visit the three elephants who reside here and feed them for an extra fee. After a day well-spent, restaurants and snack bars offer delicious meals to revitalize you. Don’t forget to pick up a few souvenirs on your way out!
