National Museum and More Buddhas

We went to the National Museum and the National Gallery and along the way were almost scammed by some seemingly nice guys at our neighborhood Wat, Wat Chana.

There were more at the National Gallery, but we will move on the the more impressive National Museum.

I love Fasting Buddha

That's not me on the bus on the bad tour to the cool location. 

We made our way to The Ancient City of Ayutthaya on a tour that was, well, not so great. but it is a cool site. Ayutthaya, is about 50 miles north of Bangkok. It was founded in 1350, the city was once one of the largest and most powerful urban centers in the world, thriving on international trade until it was destroyed by the Burmese in 1767.
