TLDR : Answer Summary
When visiting Ayutthaya, several temples stand out as must-see attractions. Highlights include Wat Phra Si Sanphet, known for its iconic architecture, and Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit, located nearby. Other notable temples are Wat Phra Ram, Wat Ratchaburana, and Wat Panang Choeng. Additionally, many visitors enjoy the scenic views of Wat Chaiwattanaram from a long-tail boat on the Chao Phraya River. Exploring the various temple complexes is a rewarding experience, with stunning architecture and rich history.

Start with Wat Panang Choeng , Wat Yai and then the others mentioned. Sunset Wat Chawattanarm. After you are Wat overloaded.

Just wandering around Ayuttayah, and any temple complex, is part of the appeal. A top five? Not for me.

The Highlight for me was Wat Chaiwattanaram view from a long tail boat cruising down Chao Praya, but Charlotte definitely listed the other highlights for sure

Wat Phra Si Sanphet is the most recognisable and Wihan Phra Mongkhon Bophit is a temple in the same bit.

Wat Phra Ram

Wat Ratchaburana

They were what we found most interesting and not too expensive either from memory 🙂
