Sukhothai






The Thai kingdom was first established in Sukhothai. In this UNESCO herritage site a lot of temple ruins can still be visited. After a short ride in the pick-up truck, we rented bicycles to go around the temples.

In the park we stumbled accross a school class who were right in the middle of a ceremony. Boys on the right, girls on the left, all listening to a monk reciting. After this the flowers were offered to the Buddha.

Later, at one of the temples, we met a couple of the school girls again. They had a short survey, which they needed to complete to learn to speak english. So Wouter and I had to fill in our names and which Thai dish was our favorite.
