Sukhothai

Step back in time and explore Sukhothai, the birthplace of Thai civilization and the ancient capital of the Sukhothai Kingdom. This UNESCO World Heritage site is a treasure trove of history, where beautifully preserved temples, grand Buddha statues, and intricately carved monuments transport visitors to the 13th century. Wander through Sukhothai Historical Park by bicycle or on foot, and immerse yourself in the serene beauty of lotus-filled ponds, ancient brick ruins, and peaceful gardens that reflect the spiritual heart of Thailand.

Sukhothai is also famous for its vibrant cultural celebrations, especially the Loy Krathong and Candle Festival, held every November. During this magical event, locals and visitors float candle-lit krathongs on the water and light elaborate wax candles, creating a mesmerizing sea of lights across the historical park. Combined with its charming local markets, traditional cuisine, and cultural heritage, Sukhothai offers an unforgettable journey where history, spirituality, and celebration come together in one enchanting destination.
