    A headless mystery

    Life, Pichaya Svasti, Published on 24/03/2016

    » History buffs and archaeological experts are currently participating in one of the hottest debates in recent years. Rungroj Phirom-anukul has offered a controversial theory that the head of a Buddha image on view at the National Museum Bangkok might belong to the Ayutthaya Kingdom's major Buddha statue Phra Sri Sanphet. According to history as it's currently understood, Phra Sri Sanphet, burnt by Burmese invaders during the fall of Ayutthaya in 1767, was brought to Bangkok during the reign of King Rama I and has been kept inside Phra Chedi Sri Sanphet Chadauyan, a pagoda at Wat Pho, ever since.

    » It's hard to say who was the first tourist in Siam, because tourism as we know it didn't exist until a few centuries ago. Indian merchants sailed here in the 5th century, the Chinese came to trade and later to settle, and one of the earliest European travellers were the Portuguese, arriving in Ayutthaya in 1511. In 1680, Ibn Muhammad Ibrahim, a Persian, visited the land and recorded his impressions -- "All around us were trees that never feel the withering touch of autumn" -- while the first guidebook to the Kingdom was written by local resident J. Antonio in 1904. (Its most highly recommended activity is the shooting of birds and mammals.)
