    Ayutthaya market

    Posted by cabinfevergirl 14 February 2011

    The central night market of world heritage site Ayutthaya is a wonderful friendly place for all the family. Wander among the many steaming food stalls picking your dish from the bizarrely exotic (stir-fried frogs) to the ubiquitous and downright delicious (pad thai) then settle on a table by the river taking in the stunning views of some of the many lit up temple ruins that you may have walked around in the earlier searing heat. This is a calmer, easier and more atmospheric way to see them! You can catch a boat from here to take you around the 'island' to see many more ruins at night. If you have children with you (as I did) finish the night off (or use as a 'if you eat all your food bribe) letting them join the local kids with a crazy bounce on the popular inflatable slide - while allowing Mum a chance to shop in the many cheap clothes stalls.
