Asia > Southeast Asia > Thailand
The Kingdom of Thailand has a very long and glorious history.
Proof of this can be seen in the a number of historical sites spread throughout all regions of the country.
There are currently ten parks, with four them registered as World Heritage Sites by the UNESCO. The 10 historical parks are Muang Singh, Phanom Rung, Sukhothai, Si Satchanalai, Kamphaeng Phet, Sri Thep, Phimai, Ayutthaya, Phra Nakhon Khiri and Phu Phra Bat.
They are the result of the Fine Arts Department, a sub-division of the Ministry of Education’s hard work of excavation, renovation and landscaping for several decades. Each of these parks in now equipped with information centre and provides qualified guides.
The two most prominent must-see historical sites in Thailand are Ayutthaya Historical Park and Sukhothai Historical Park. Both places are designated as world heritage sites and both attract millions of visitors annually, who come to admire the evidence of Siam's prior glory.
To really get a feel for Thailand and its history, a visit to the kingdom’s ancient sites is absolutely essential.
