Your afternoon adventure begins with a journey from Siam BTS Station to Keha BTS Station, followed by a short taxi ride to the Ancient City. Once you arrive, you can choose to traverse the vast 320-hectare grounds either on an electric bicycle or via the convenient shuttle tram.

Here, you can marvel at the architectural wonders that represent both the past and present of Thailand, all in a single day.
As you wander through the park, you may opt to don a traditional Thai costume for an additional fee, enhancing your experience as you step back in time. After a day filled with exploration and discovery, you will return to central Bangkok around 18:30, either by taxi or the Ancient City Museum's shuttle bus, ensuring a seamless conclusion to your journey.
