I never uploaded any pictures from Ayuttaya, the old capital of Siam. That's where we had a two week training in July. Here's a picture of me at one of the temple ruins. The city is covered in temples that are hundreds and hundreds of years old. Most are in a state of near ruins.
The Thais blame the Burmese for sansacking the temple grounds in the mid 1900s. In many places the stone buddah images have all their heads cut off. Some people now blame the Thais for taking the heads off these sacred monuments so that the Burmese could not get to them.
