Bang Pa-In is the Summer Palace of the Kings of Thailand. Situated just 18 km south of the old capital of Siam at Ayutthaya on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. The Palace dates back to 1632 and was established by King Prasat Thong. The Palace lay empty and the gardens overgrown following the sacking of Ayutthaya by the Burmese in 1767. Re-established in the 1800's by King Rama IV and extended by the great King Rama V...... This is a must see place when visiting Thailand.....
