Synopsis:

Ayutthaya, founded around 1350, grew to be the second Siamese capital after Sukhotai. In the 18th century it was destroyed by the Burmese. The remains, with the characteristic prangs (ornamental towers) and huge monasteries, give an idea of ??the former splendor. In Sukhotai, the capital of the first kingdom of Siam in the 13th and 14th centuries, there are a number of striking monuments that give an impression of the first Thai architecture. Built in 1802 as the capital of a unified Vietnam, Hué was not only the political but also the cultural and religious center under the Nguyen dynasty until 1945. The Perfume River winds through the capital, the imperial city, the forbidden purple city and the inner city, and thus enriches this unique feudal city with natural beauty. Ha Long Bay, in the Gulf of Tonkin, is home to some 1,600 islands and islets that form a spectacular seascape of limestone columns. Because they are so steep, most of the islands are uninhabited and untouched by humans. In addition to their exceptional beauty, this location is also of great biological importance. The ancient city of Hoi An is an exceptionally well-preserved example of a Southeast Asian trading port city, dating from the 15th to the 19th centuries. The buildings and street plan betray both indigenous and foreign influences, which together have created this unique world heritage site.
