Technically in Ayutthaya but easily reached as a day trip, this is one of Thailand's finest regional museums, housing extraordinary Buddha images, royal regalia, and gold artifacts recovered from Ayutthaya-era chedis. The collection is world-class and far less crowded than Bangkok's central museums. Combine it with the Ayutthaya Historical Park for a full day. The museum itself is well-organized and air-conditioned, making it a comfortable anchor for the trip.
