In reply to Ferna. Thank you, Ferna for your kind words. The purple cakes and actually all the desserts in Ayutthaya were pretty spectacular. The giant freshwater prawns were quite amazing as well. It helps to travel with a local guide to understand the local history and discover the local food specialties.

In reply to Kate. Great to hear you enjoyed the fascinating story of the Buddha head in the tree. Indeed, so much history in Ayutthaya. Definitively worth visiting if your travels take you to Thailand. Thanks, Kate.

Geez, that shrimp was HUGE. The food on your tour looked so delish. Aside from the food (which I am sure was extra), how much did this day tour cost? And what did it include?

I am a huge lover of Shrimps! That giant freshwater shrimp is so new to my eyes, never tried that as well. I love how the tour from Non is, going beyond those amazing places and tasted different delicacies. It’s also so tempting that purple cake one that you had it in two bites and gone, I want that!

Those Thai fish cakes look delish! And I can’t believe the Buddha head within the tree roots or that no one knows the origin of how it came to be. There’s clearly an incredible amount of history and culture in Ayutthaya.

In reply to Indrani. The food scene was a highlight and a delicious part of the experience after seeing all the Wat's. Be sure to check out the local markets and indulge in the giant river prawns/ shrimp which are a local delicacy. Hope you get back to Ayutthaya soon. Thanks, Indrani.

In reply to Medha. Thanks Medha, a trip to Ayutthaya is well worth the experience. The food, culture, and history are all good reasons to visit. When you do make it to Thailand next, book a trip to Ayutthaya for a fascinating experience.

While I visited all the Wats you mentioned here I missed out on the food scene. I wish I had tried those desserts being devoured so lovingly by all for years. I am sure they must be tasty to last this long. The shrimps are tempting too.

I absolutely love Thai food and can only imagine what an amazing experience it must have been to take a food tour in an ancient Thai city. I have never been to Ayutthaya but the temple, the giant Buddha and the markets look amazing. The coconut pancakes must be s delicious and the giant grilled shrimp looks yummy too!
