Si Satchanalai UNESCO World Heritage Site - Thailand 2024
Si Satchanalai อุทยานประวัติศาสตร์ศรีสัชนาลัย
Si Satchanalai is a historical park located in the Si Satchanalai district of Sukhothai Province, northern Thailand. The park is a significant archaeological site that dates back to the 13th to 15th centuries. It is known for its ancient temples, ruins, and Buddha figures, which are a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the region.
History and Significance
Si Satchanalai was founded in 1250 as the second center of the Sukhothai Kingdom and served as a residence of the crown prince in the 13th and 14th centuries. The town enjoyed a substantial autonomy under Khmer rule until 1180, when it was taken over by Khmer general Khomsabad Khlonlampong, who introduced prohibitive taxes.
In 1239 Pho Khun Bangklanghao and Pho Khun Pha Mueang decided to rebel and declare independence from Angkor and captured Chaliang. Chaliang then became part of the Sukhothai Kingdom.
The park is maintained by the Fine Arts Department of Thailand with the help of UNESCO, which has declared it a World Heritage Site together with the associated historic parks in Kamphaengphet and Sukhothai.
Attractions and Activities
The Si Satchanalai Historical Park is a must-visit destination for history buffs and those interested in exploring Thailand’s rich cultural heritage. The park is easily toured by bicycle or on foot, allowing visitors to take in the stunning scenery and ancient architecture.
This is one of the best places to visit in Thailand. The ruins are in very good condition and you will be away from the large crowds.
