The Ancient City

A cool place to walk around and spend the day exploring. It is truly a massive area to explore. You opt to walk, rent a bicycle, rent a e-bike, rent a golf kart or drive your own vehicle. Prices for renting the bike, e-bike and golf differ. Golf kart also has option for 2,4 and 6 people depending on your group size. You do need to hand in either your driver's license, passport or ID card when renting. It is cheaper to book online than to pay at the entrance. Staff are very friendly when sorting your ticket out and a map is given of the area and all the attractions. They will also highlight some areas and give you the times for shows at certain areas. Best to do as a day trip as it can take 4-5 hours to fully explore and see everything. There is places to get food and drinks so you will not go hungry or thirsty.

By far the most unique and exciting experience to be had in Bangkok. A must see for everyone visiting. You get a tour around the whole park, visiting unique and authentic restored attractions and replicas alike. The food is also great, the guides are friendly and helpful. Cant recommend it enough!

I definitely recommend it. The scenery is beautiful. We rented golf carts as a group of four friends and enjoyed the trip. Golf carts cost 200 baht and are well worth it (you need a driver license). They provide a tour map, which includes 122 different areas. The tour takes an average of 4-5 hours.

Visiting the Ancient City in Bangkok was like stepping into a living museum of Thai history and culture. This massive open-air park features meticulously crafted replicas of Thailand’s most iconic temples, palaces, and monuments—all beautifully arranged in a layout that mirrors the shape of the country. Each structure is detailed and photo-worthy, offering insight into Thailand’s rich architectural heritage. From the majestic Sanphet Prasat Palace to peaceful temples and pavilions, the experience was both educational and visually stunning. You can explore the site by tram, golf cart, or bike, making it fun and flexible for all ages. The calm atmosphere, traditional music in the background, and lush surroundings made it feel like a true cultural escape from the city buzz. A must-visit for history lovers, photographers, and anyone looking to experience the essence of Thailand in one place!

I would recommend visiting ancient city. However, the on-counter ticket price would be higher including transit. And I would suggest to come via BTS train till Keha station. And then take tuk-tuk which only cost 10 Baht, which will drop you very near to ancient city. Unless you are in a group through, this will save you money. For me booking was done on Klook which included combined ticket for Ancient City and Erawan Museum followed by a BTS ride and 10 bath tuk tuk Inside things are quite vast Unless you are a good walker you would have to take or rent motorbike or golf cart If you can bring your own car or your own vehicle from outside that will be more cheap as prices here for rent are high For example golf cart is 350 bath plus 100 bath for every hour and the e-bike which can support just 1 or max 2 passengers is 250 bath for 3 hours Inside there are restaurants to eat. The buffet restaurants suggested by the group like Pavilion can be pre-booked. Or there is a Chinese restaurant with hot soup based buffet which costs around 400 Baht. However, if you are comfortable with Thai food, I would suggest eating on few Thai restaurants near the first big temple which are very fairly priced. You can get Thai food at same price including drinks and smoothies. When you enter for the ticket, they will give you a big map and explain which places to visit and you can plan a day. There are shows at two places, one is floating market and second is a dance performance. Timings are starting at 11.15 am and 2.15 pm for the dance show. They will explain you but you can plan your day as it closes around 7.00 pm. On you return could take tuk tuk from the other side of the road or there are drops to nearest BTS station for 25 bath I have shared a picture for timings below it starts after 1:00 p.m.

See all of Thailand's major monuments in one place. It's especially nice to rent a golf cart, electric bike or bicycle, so that it's easy to park and hop on/off. We toured on our rentals, then found the places that we wanted to explore more closely. It's incredible how much work has been done. Notice that the huge site is in the shape of Thailand! Take passport/driving license for rentals. Combine with a short visit to Erawan Museum with the three headed elephant.

Great place to experience Thai culture and buildings. You can drive around in your own car, bike through or rent a golf cart as we did. Great fun & very interesting!

Very big and so much to see. Very suitable for treasure hunt activities here. The buffet lunch is good. Have both indoor and outdoor food stations. The outdoor stations food are better. They served tasty chicken rice, fried sweet potato, coconut pancakes and noodles soup. Really worth visiting.
