is located 12 kms. from town on the Sukhothai-Tak Highway. It
is open daily 08.30-16.30 hrs. Admission fee is 40 baht. Ruins
of the royal palaces, Buddhist temples, the city gates, walls,
moats, dams, ditches, ponds, canals, and the water dyke control
system, which was the magical and spiritual center of the kingdom,
are now preserved and have been restored by the Fine Arts Department
with the cooperation of UNESCO, not only with a view of fostering
Thailand's national identity but the safeguarding a fine example
of mankind's cultural heritage. The tourist Service Centre is
near Wat Phra Phai Luang. The centre provides information and
facilitates visitors to the Sukhothai Historical Park, as well
as displays models of historical buildings and structures in
old Sukhothai. |
