Ayutthaya

 
Thank you Ronald! A block with scenes of Ayutthaya, an ancient capital of the Siamese Kingdom from the 14th-18th centuries. Famously, the Sun King reported that its wealth and size rivaled that of Paris. Attacked and burned by the Burmese in 1767, the city was abandoned, not to be rebuilt. 
A photo I took while visiting Ayutthaya in January.
