2025 Nakhon Luang Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

Prasat Nakhon Luang is an ancient site located in Nakhon Luang District, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province. It was built during the reign of King Prasat Thong. It was originally a residence for kings when they came to pay homage to the Buddha's footprint. It has now become a popular historical tourist attraction on social media. One of the highlights of Prasat Nakhon Luang is praying to the ancient Ganesha, who is more than 300 years old and sits on a throne of skulls. He is believed to help with work, finances, studies, and eliminating obstacles. The way to pray is as follows: Bring 2 banknotes to pray, rub Ganesha's feet to increase financial luck. Ring the bell, and after praying, take 1 banknote back for good fortune. If you can whisper to a mouse to pray, that would be great. (You are not allowed to bring incense and candles upstairs. We recommend praying from below, and the way up can be steep.) Traveling from Bangkok to Prasat Nakhon Luang is not far, taking only 1-1.5 hours. You can travel by private car, using Phahonyothin Road or Asia Road, then take Highway No. 309. If traveling by train, you can get off at Ayutthaya Station and take a car to Nakhon Luang District. For those who are looking for a place to visit near Bangkok that has both history and sacredness, don't miss visiting Ganesha at Prasat Nakhon Luang. #Get a discount without relying on luck

Wat Klang, Ayutthaya Province 🙏A temple located next to the Pa Sak River. There is an important ancient site, a pavilion or temple, which is believed to have been built during the reign of King Rama III. It is square in shape, made of brick and mortar, with a tiled roof. Inside, on a high base in the middle of the pavilion, there is a three-dimensional simulation of the Buddha's cremation ceremony. There are murals on all four walls, telling the story of the Buddha's disciples who came to the Buddha's cremation ceremony. 🙏According to the Tripitaka, when King Malla prepared the Buddha's funeral for the cremation ceremony, the fire could not be lit. In fact, it was the intention of the gods who helped Phra Maha Kassapa and 500 other monks who were traveling to the Buddha's cremation ceremony to arrive on time. When Phra Maha Kassapa arrived, he bowed down at the end of the coffin, and then a miracle happened. The Buddha extended his feet out of the 500 layers of cloth and the coffin so that Phra Maha Kassapa and the monks could pay their respects for the last time before the fire ignited. 📍 Tambon Nakhon Luang, Amphoe Nakhon Luang, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Province #NewYearNewTrip

Ganesha sits on a throne of skulls, over 300 years old, enshrined in front of the pavilion of 4 Buddha footprints, is a Javanese art style. It is believed that worshiping Ganesha is auspicious in terms of money, work, love, eliminating obstacles and enemies, and defeat. The trick of the Mu line is to use a banknote to brush the surface of Ganesha and then open the wallet as if scooping money and gold into the pocket. This statue is sitting on a throne of skulls, which is not often seen. Enshrined in the castle of the royal family, the rituals of that era were certainly not ordinary. Devotees of Ganesha all seek a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to come and worship. #Ayutthaya
