Ayutayá 2

I had so much to see in the morning that I rented this scooter:
... though I really wanted this thing: 
 and visited many, many amazing places:






  
 including the Ayutayá Museum:


 these sculptures date from the early 14th century...

  




  

 It was impressive to see the way Thais continue to worship even destroyed Buddhas:

 and how much power is retained even by ruins...
I decided that the old Ayutayá stone style is my favorite so far.
