If you’re looking for an interesting detour, turn your steering wheel in the direction of Ayutthaya. It features well-known attractions like Ayutthaya Historical Park and Wat Phra Si Sanphet. To get there, travel 35 miles from Wat Bot. Bangkok, 50 miles away, is another destination that’s worth the drive. Check out Khaosan Road and Pratunam Market, two top-notch attractions in the area.
