Thailand: Traditional Central Thai houses, Chao Sam Phraya National Museum, Ayutthaya Historical Park

The Chao Sam Phraya National Museum opened in 1970 and contains an impressive collection of Ayutthayan artifacts including some important bronze Buddha images. The collections are housed in traditional central Thai wooden houses. Ayutthaya (Ayudhya)) was a Siamese kingdom that existed from 1351 to 1767. Ayutthaya was friendly towards foreign traders, including the Chinese, Vietnamese (Annamese), Indians, Japanese and Persians, and later the Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch and French, permitting them to set up villages outside the city walls. In the sixteenth century, it was described by foreign traders as one of the biggest and wealthiest cities in the East. The court of King Narai (1656–1688) had strong links with that of King Louis XIV of France, whose ambassadors compared the city in size and wealth to Paris.
