The remains of the great city, the reclining Buddha and the tree hug Buddha head
many monuments and temples in the big city are open to the public, some are open-air, even if there is a wall, it is a low wall. The first one came to the reclining Buddha. I turned around the reclining Buddha several times and confirmed my eyes. Yes, it was the reclining Buddha I saw three years ago.
The white Buddha statue lying under the sky in the big city is very dazzling, and the huge figure is shocking. This should be the biggest reclining Buddha in the big city. The
tree holds the Buddha's head. It is the most well-known spectacle of Dacheng. It is in the Mahathat Temple and is the most ancient temple in Ayutthaya. A huge Buddha's head fell and was held tightly and gently by the roots of the millennium ancient banyan tree. For hundreds of years of vicissitudes of life, it was still a smile on the face.
Fotou hangs a faint smile in the Bodhi tree, as if to see the changes of a dynasty and the rise and fall of the world, revealing the serenity of the lead and the uncontested face of the world.

Huge Reclining Buddha Statue!
When we enter the ancient city of Ayutthaya, Thailand, we will be shown by various historical heritage sites. One of them is Wat Lokaya Sutha, Wat Lokayasutharam, “the temple of the Earth”. Its founding date is unknown, but it is believed that the temple dates from the early Ayutthaya period.
Wat Lokaya Sutha is a temple restored from the ruins of a monastery. Currently, you can only see the remains of the floor, pillars and walls of the monastery. Not only that, in this temple area there is also a statue of a reclining Buddha. This 42-meter-long 8-meter-high statue will catch your attention because of its large size plus its orange covering that you can't miss. (Update: the Buddha statue is now uncovered and exposed to the elements )
To get to Ayutthaya you can directly buy tickets on the spot at Hua Lamphong Station (Bangkok Train Station). Bring umbrella, sunglass and hat! 😎

Walked into the Ayutthaya Karayasuta Temple, although the old temples were already bustling, leaving only a huge Buddha statue made of clay, sleeping quietly, the lacquer ware on the body has become somewhat mottled, but the look is Still as calm as ever. Although not as gorgeous as other temples, it is one of the impressive spots of Ayutthaya and the place where local believers are devout to the Buddha.
A beautiful and peaceful Buddha, lying quietly on the beautiful lotus seat, his right hand gently leaning on the lotus, his left hand on the body, the face with a faint smile, very kind and quiet.
Above the mottled stone steps of the Buddha, there is a incense burner, occasionally local believers, worshipping in front of the Buddha, quietly telling, and then giving him a fragrance, it is particularly sacred and beautiful. Surrounded by a large Buddha, although the appearance has become blurred, he still waits for the kind people in this land. No matter what troubles, if you have any problems, you can choose an uninhabited afternoon and quietly tell the Buddha about it. Ask him to give his soul comfort
Palan Temple in the center of the ancient city of Ayutthaya. To the temple where the damage is more serious. Although the kings of the Ayutthaya kingdom have repaired it, the temples in today's temples still appear to be somewhat run-down, and many Buddha statues have been damaged. Only the Khmer-style pagodas that remain in the center of the temple are still tenacious, and people can see a kind of tenacious vitality, and also feel a rare and incomplete beauty.
