The Charm of DuBua Café – A Green Retreat in the Countryside
Arriving at DuBua Café & Farm in the gentle morning air feels like stepping into a watercolour painting. It’s far more than just a café it’s a tranquil world surrounded by shimmering lotus ponds, wooden bridges, and small animals wandering freely across open lawns. With a coffee in hand, you can stroll along the pond, ride a bicycle, or take a duck boat across the calm water. The soft morning light paints everything in warm tones, perfect for photos and peaceful moments. Whether you’re travelling with family, friends, or a partner, DuBua offers the ideal start to your day — not just sightseeing, but breathing in nature itself. That balance between serenity and simplicity is the true beauty of DuBua.
Talad Kung Ayutthaya – The Kingdom of Shrimp
Unlike a typical local market, Talad Kung (Shrimp Market) is a seafood lover’s paradise — especially famous for its giant river prawns. Here, rows of freshly caught shrimp glisten on ice, surrounded by sizzling grill stations, spicy dipping sauces, and trays of crispy snacks. Ayutthaya’s pride, the giant freshwater prawn, is thick, juicy, and rich in flavour — turning a quick market stop into a culinary highlight of the day. Every stall runs fast and fresh; vendors grill, boil, and season their shrimp right before your eyes.
Ayutthaya Temples – Serenity, Grandeur, and Sunset
In the afternoon, step into the ancient world at Wat Maha That, where the iconic Buddha head rests peacefully in the roots of a banyan tree. The contrast of light and shadow across the old brick ruins evokes centuries of quiet reverence. Walk slowly, notice the texture of time on the stone — it’s a rare chance to feel history, not just see it.
Then move on to Wat Chai Wattanaram, one of Ayutthaya’s most majestic temples, with perfect symmetry and riverside charm. As the sun begins to set, the red bricks glow softly under the golden light. From the riverside café terrace, you can capture the temple’s silhouette mirrored on the water — a scene that feels almost cinematic. Sip a sweet Thai milk tea, click the shutter, and let the moment sink in. It’s the grand finale of the day — peaceful, timeless, and deeply moving.
