Bike Tour

An interesting tourist attraction is called Ancient Siam (or Ancient City)... This attraction is dubbed as the world's largest outdoor museum. The 320-hectare attraction is a gateway to Thailand's cultural heritage features 116 structures of Thailand's famous monuments and architectural attractions. It is a Disney sized tourist attraction that is so large you have to bike around it. The grounds of Ancient Siam correspond roughly to the shape of the country, with each of the monuments lying at their correct relative places geographically. Some of the buildings are life-size replicas of existing or former sites, while others are scaled down to 1/5 the of the original size. Others are the originals which he moved from their original sites because they were becoming severely damaged. The founder's first idea was to create a golf course with miniatures of Thailand's historically significant structures spread around the course. Instead he created this, so in one day we were able to see all of ancient cities, ruins and architecture that constitute the splendors of Thailand's past . (note: I had the only bike with a bell... and ringing a bell is considered lucky in Thailand.)
