Sukhothai
Now a small city in southern Thailand, Sukhothai was once the
seat of an ancient Siamese culture. The Sukhothai National Historic
Park has been named a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is dedicated
to preserving the area's many temples, palaces and monuments, which
date back to the 13th century. The old city covers roughly 27
square miles (70 sq km) and is divided into three zones, each of
which charge separate admission. There are bicycle rentals
available, and there is a tour by electric tram. New Sukhothai
features a fresh market with great local food, and a few shops and
restaurants.
