It's really beautiful place worth to visit .. sadly we couldn't visit the erwan museum which is around 13 km away from the ancient city... Ancient city itself is so beautifully made .

Beautiful experience. Must do when visiting Bangkok.

This tour attempts to bring together two major sights in Bangkok, offering a rich take on Thailand’s everlasting cultural heritage and appeal. There are different packages to choose from within the ticket, including visits to The Ancient City and Erawan Museum. For those looking to have an all-rounded Thai experience, you can add a Khan Toke lunch or dinner to the equation. Khan Toke does not signify the cuisine but the presentation of the food. It is a small round wooden table, adorned with carvings and finished with lacquer.

Discover History Ancient City

Ancient City is one of the world’s largest open-air museums.
