| Great images WM. Years ago I lived in Sukhothai for a time {Amphoe Sri Satch & Sri Sam Rong}....Sri Satchanalai is perhaps overlooked for historical types, but it is strikingly important to historic content {older the Sukhothai Old City}. The 2-dayers that trip on through Sukhothai tend to miss this park - either they're not aware of it or it's rather off the beaten track......
