Asrlar davomida Xitoy, Hindiston va Malay arxipelagi o'rtasidagi ideal joy Ayutthayani Osiyo va hatto dunyoning savdo poytaxtiga aylantirdi. 1700 yilga kelib Ayutthaya jami 1 million aholisi bo'lgan dunyodagi eng yirik shaharga aylandi. Arab dunyosi, Xitoy, Hindiston, Yaponiya, Portugaliya, Gollandiya va Frantsiya kabi turli mintaqalardan ko'plab xalqaro savdogarlar Ayutthaya tomon yo'l olishdi. Evropadan kelgan savdogarlar Ayutthayani ular ko'rgan eng yaxshi shahar deb e'lon qilishdi. Shaharning golland va fransuz xaritalarida oltindan to'ldirilgan saroylar, katta marosimlar va dunyoning turli burchaklaridan kelgan savdo kemalarining tashrif buyuradigan flotiliyasi bo'lgan ulug'vorlik aks ettirilgan. Bularning barchasi tezda tugadi, 1767 yilda Birma Ayutthayaga bostirib kirdi va shaharni deyarli butunlay yoqib yubordi.

Vayronalar Ayutthaya 17-asrda Janubi-Sharqiy Osiyoning (va ehtimol dunyodagi) eng obod shaharlaridan biri bo'lganligini ko'rsatadi. Ayutthaya tarixiy bog'i, Ayutthaya shahrining markazida joylashgan tarixiy joylarning ulkan qismi bo'lib kelgan YuNESKOning Jahon merosi ro'yxati 1991 yil dekabridan beri.
Ayutthayada uchta saroy bor edi: Katta saroy, Chantharakasem saroyi (old saroy) va Van Lang (orqa saroy). Bundan tashqari, Ayutthayaning tashqarisida qirollarning tashrifi uchun ko'plab boshqa saroylar va binolar, masalan, saroy bor edi Bang Pa-In va Nakhon Luang binosi Nakhon Luang.

Biroq, bu murakkablashishi mumkin, chunki barcha saytlar baribir haq olishmaydi, masalan.

Yoki keyinroq boshlang, lekin Bangkok kunlik ekskursiyalari tashrif buyuradigan saytlardan saqlaning va turistik avtobuslar jo'nab ketgach, keyinchalik ushbu saytlarga qayting. Turistik avtobuslar o'tib ketishga arziydigan ko'plab saytlar mavjud (chunki ular & Bangkokga boradigan joy tufayli kamroq vaqtga ega).
Aftidan, sayyohlarga emas, balki hukumatga qarshi hiyla-nayrang bor. Chiptalarni sotayotgan xonimlar sizdan pulni olib, kirishingizga ruxsat berishadi, lekin sizga chipta bermaydilar (va ehtimol pulni o'zlarining cho'ntagiga qo'yishlari mumkin). Agar siz o'zingizning pulingizni shaxsiy cho'ntaklarga emas, ma'badni ta'mirlash va saqlash uchun sarflashni xohlasangiz, chiptani talab qiling.

Later, in 1822, the goldsmiths quit their jobs, leaving only the blacksmiths; therefore, the villagers' main living became the smithery.

Respect
Wear long trousers/skirts to temples, and no sleeveless T-shirts or revealing blouses. Treat Buddha images with utmost respect, just as you would in the rest of Thailand.

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, female travellers have been groped by passing-by motorcyclists, so beware if someone slows down next to you.
Some small shops sell bottles of water that are not completely full. Check before you buy and if not full assess risk and decide - there will likely be an alternative shop nearby.
There are many hospitals, clinics and pharmacies in Ayutthaya. Several major ones are:
- Ayutthaya Hospital
- Navanakorn Hospital
- Sena Hospital
- Ratchathani Hospital
- Supamitr Sena Hospital
- Peravech Hospital
- Wangnoi Hospital
- Rojanavech Hospital
