除了它本身, 选择去Ayutthaya的理由:
1. 离曼谷很近, 约80KM, 交通方便;
2. 没有很多游客;

我的:
上午到BKK机场, 出海关后问了下info center的人去除了火车站还能在哪买票; 当他了解到我要去Ayutthaya之后, 立刻建议我去Victory Monument [Google Map] 附近坐MiniVan, 大概只需1.5Hrs;
但我是个固执的人, 非要坐火车, 于是:
1. 火车:
列车表可以从泰国铁路网站找到: // 注意: 已经停止网络售票

从BKK坐Airport Link到Makkasan换MRT坐到HuaLamphong / 火车站;
买了一张109去Ayutthaya的三等座: 20 Baht, 没有固定座位, 没有空调;
但是在曼谷市内停靠几乎所有的大小车站, 车速很慢, 大概花了2.5Hrs才到Ayutthaya;
2. Minivan
临走时问了下客栈的小妹, 做Minivan是最方便快速的交通方式, 60 Baht, 1.5Hrs, 在7-11斜对面. 大概有15座, 还不错;
住宿
Agoda上定的Tamarind Guesthouse, 还不错. 木结构小楼, 走路会嘎吱嘎吱响, 晚上还比较安静. 交通位置极好, 对面出门过马路就是Ayutthaya Historical Park.
自行车
据说多数客栈都会有自行车出租服务, 大概50 Baht/天, 街边也会有很多店铺出租自行车.
由于Ayutthaya很小, 所以自行车足够, 但是, 请务必注意野狗!!:
在Ayutthaya左下角, Somdet Phra Srinakaindra Park附近时遭到野狗追击, 换了车道逆行才得以脱险…
Ayutthaya has a lot of hungry stray dogs in poor condition. They can particularly be a problem in the off-season when there aren’t so many people in the streets. While largely docile and harmless, to avoid being chased around by a pack of them it is best not to walk around alone, particularly at night. For those accustomed to travel in developing areas, there should be no problem.
When cycling around the city beware of motorcyclists. Do not put any valuable items in your handlebar basket, as they may be snatched at traffic lights. Also, women travelers have been groped by passing-by motorcyclists, so beware if someone slows down next to you.
