A short trip to Ayutthaya, a round trip in the morning and evening. Starting in the morning, I went for a run at Kamphaeng Saen. It was a run to celebrate the 1st anniversary. I brought my camera with me because I remembered that the pink trumpet trees were starting to bloom. When I arrived, they were indeed blooming, but not many. As I write this, they must be in full bloom. If you live nearby, go and see them.


As agricultural students, we all know that when the pink flowers of the Tipuana tipu bloom, it means that the final exams are approaching. When the rain tree flowers bloom, it is the graduation ceremony. It's truly a life as an agricultural student.



Continuing the journey, on the way, stopped to eat red pork rice in Nakhon Pathom. This shop is famous and really delicious. Mr. Chawa's shop is opposite the Phra Ruang Buddha statue, the upper market, Soi 3. The shop is on the corner. Open at 9 am. I went and got a queue number. The shop sells until the afternoon. It's a pity that I didn't take a picture.



After finishing all the errands and picking up my travel companion, we arrived in Ayutthaya in the late afternoon. It was the first day of the cold season, but the weather wasn't too cold. However, the wind was strong and the sky was very overcast, making it almost impossible to take any pictures.

Starting at the Mongkol Bophit Vihara and the Wat Phra Si Sanphet.





The air was very hazy. Then we went on to Wat Yai Chaimongkol, a typical commercial temple, full of advertisements for the sale of various amulets and sacred objects. Personally, I don't really like this kind of thing, so I've become less interested in it over time.




Drive a little further and you will reach Wat Phanan Choeng. The legend of the temple is easy to find on Google.

This temple houses the majestic golden statue of Luang Pho To Sam Po Kong.



We spent quite a long time at Wat Phanan Choeng, waiting for the sun to set in the late afternoon. The reason for this was that the main purpose of this trip was to watch the sunset at Wat Chaiwatthanaram. I love this temple the most. People of our generation should remember the drama "Ruea Mayura". I remember the scene where Mae Yi Phu walked out of the temple. It was very impressive. P'Mam and Cat were very beautiful, really beautiful.











That's it, everyone can go home now.
