A good complement to Sukhothai and Sri Satchanalai parks if you are into Siam history and architecture. No more bikes to rent so be motorized!!! The site is divided into 2 zones and I recommend to start with Wat Phra Kaew. These are the best parts with Buddha Image and elephants. In the other zone, you may go directly to Wat chang rob and Iryabot. The other ruins don’t bring much.…

There are two places to visit. The more obvious ruins with the triple Buddha images. This is good for 30 mins or so, but make sure you drive up to the main park to see a whole range of ruins. This would be a great spot for exercise. Need a car or a bike for this.

the Kamphaeng Phet Historical Park actually consists of two sites, one downtown in a park with few structures, and a wide area with several structures north, some 3.5km out of town. for each site there is a specific ticket for 100 B p.p., but there is also a combined ticket for both sites (150 B p.p.). The structures are in a far less preserved state then in Sukhothai, but still there are some very nice details, worth the visit.…

This should be a must see site which appears to be missed by most people .…

It cost 150 baht to visit the two sites, but 100 baht to visit one only. I’d choose the former. It’s advisable to do it as early as possible before it gets too hot. Too much to cover on foot; best to hire a bicycle at the entrance/ticket office. It’s possible to visit the two sites in one morning. We started early and finished at lunchtime. Bring plenty of water and some food. There were no shops within the park. Quite a number of dogs in the park, and some were quite vicious. I had to carry a branch with me to ward them off. I was surprised that there were so few tourists about. …
