Today our day of #takethethaiventure with @tat_india started with exploring the ancient Ayutthaya on bicycles.
Learned the traditional handicraft from a famous teacher whose experience and humble nature are recognized by the world.
The pla taphian (Thai: ปลาตะเพียน, pronounced [plāː tā. pʰīa̯n]) is a traditional central Thai handicraft. It is a woven hanging mobile, usually made from palm leaves, in the form of a fish (specifically the barb, which gives it its name).

We ate the delicious river prawn sitting by the river.
Submerged ourselves in the beauty and history of Summer Palace, and riding a golf cart was fun😂
We used the unique style of the ropeway to cross the river and visit not so famous church-style Buddhist Temple.
And to finish our day with a blast we went to Jodd Fairs, it's a crazy environment, with tasty food and incredible people.
Very well written and organised. Keep writing and keep sharing your stories! :)
