*first of all, I would like to apologize for the my broken English here. Please do not continue your reading if you are easily to get irritated by bad English, Thank you!
结束了吴哥就盘算应该回家还是继续上路，后来还是决定继续探险，由泰国再慢慢往南部以陆路交通回国。泰国曾经去过几个地方，曼谷已经去了两次，兴趣不大。在网上搜索一番，被裹在树根里的佛像吸引了，就去大城吧！路程是必须从暹粒搭巴士到曼谷，再由曼谷搭火车去大城，预算了时间及订了大城旅店后，第32日早晨出发。
I was considering to go home or continue the route after completed the Angkor's trip, end up i decided to continue my adventure, head to Thailand then slowly move down to south. I'd went to few provinces in Thailand, and not interested to Bangkok too because had been there twice. I was attracted by the Buddha's head which wrapped in the roots in the iPad, so i decided to go to Ayutthaya. The route trip from Siem Reap to Ayutthaya are, get the bus to the Bangkok and then transfer to Ayutthaya by the train. After planned the timing and booked the guest house, my 32nd day journey had began.
旅店推荐一个他们认为很好的巴士公司，结果在一个路旁与一大班游客等了大概20分钟，才有一辆想Bus Kilang(马来西亚接送工厂工人的巴士）的巴士来。最经典的是，没有置放行李的空间，所有行李堆放在两排椅子中间。路上曾经多次看见至少20个柬埔寨人挤入一辆小Van，也许这对他们来说已经很好待遇吧？
The Guesthouse recommended a bus company which suppose to be good to them, end up i wait with bunch of tourists by a road side for 20 minutes, then a BAS KILANG (factory's worker bus in Malaysia) finally came. The classic was there was no space for luggage, all our luggage just place at the corridor of the bus. I's seen few time at least 20 peoples were squeezing in a small van on the road, may be this was consider a good treatment to them?
噩梦还没完结，几经幸苦捱到柬泰边界，柬埔寨的处境处就像巴士站，没冷气的那种，只有两个柜台开放。也许老外们都希望在泰国度过美好的圣诞夜，大家都冒着大汗在这里排了半小时的队。更精彩的是泰国入境处的人潮，一批大概20人进去关卡许轮流半个小时以上，轮到我盖印已是3个小时半以后！后来由排在后面的经常出入这里的大马人告知，原来有关人员在外面接受300泰株檯底费，难怪外面看见大批大批的人可以不用排队直接进入关卡，真TM的狗屁。由于这狗屁贿赂制度，到曼谷已经8点晚上了，原本预定计划是4、5点到达。我在大城订购的旅店第一日泡汤了，结果被逼在曼谷随便找间旅社渡过一夜。
Nightmare was not end yet, finally we did arrived the border of Cambodia & Thailand. The immigration department at Cambodia was just look like a bus station where without air con, only 2 counter were opened. I guess there were many of the tourist wish to spend their lovely Christmas Eve in Thailand, we all had queued up here for 30 minutes. The BEST was the Thai Immigration Department, there were tonne of people queuing up there and each 20s of us took 30 minutes to take turn to the counter, i'd got my stamp finally after 3 and the half hours!!! Ya, FINALLY! I was told by a Malaysian who often came to this place, there were some officer collecting the "under table" 300 Baht outside the queue for immediate entry, no wonder i saw lot of the people entry the building easily from other special gate. I was arrived Bangkok at 8pm which was 4 hours late because of this shitty's bribery system, and, my first night guest house's paid room at Ayutthaya was burned!
从曼谷火车站去到大城只需15泰株，大概一小时半。这次留宿的旅店—— Baan Are Gong 位于火车站附近, 前身为泰式老屋，年前不幸被邻居大火连累，被烧毁了一部分，所以如今有旧式房门及新式房门的房间。泰国旧式门框离地大概一尺，有点像现金的长窗口，蛮有趣的。老板娘曾经是一位老师，除了流利的英语，她还会说华语，因为本身是半华裔血统。她姐姐也在此帮忙，她们二人十分健谈及友善，所以这次的住宿还算愉快的。
老板娘姐姐带我到附近租脚踏车，然后再从旅店旁的河畔小码头付4泰株坐船过河，从对岸开始出发到古迹景点。如果各位有机会住在这里或火车站附近，也打算骑脚踏车的话，在此给个贴士大家，对岸也有相同价格的脚踏车出租哦，不然就得好像牛酱扛那脚踏车上船下船再上下楼梯！
It's only charged 15 Baht for the train from Bangkok to Ayutthaya, and it's took 1.5 hours. The Baan Are Gong Guesthouse I'd booked are located near the Ayutthaya Train Station. It was an old style Thai house, and partly was burnt years ago because the neighbor's fired. Now you can see two type of door after renovation, luckily they still managed to remain some original charming Thai's door which is around 1 feet higher from the floor. The lady boss was a teacher, so she could speak well English, plus also Mandarin from her half Chinese blood. The sister was helping there too, they both really friendly and helpful, i had a nice experience of staying this time.
The helpful sister brought me to the bicycle rental near by to get a bicycle with 40 Baht，then went back to the little jetty next to the guesthouse to cross the river with 4 Baht because the historical park were at the opposite side. If any of you is going to stay here or nearby the train station, plus thinking of rent a bicycle, i'm here to give you a tips. There are plenty of bicycle rental with the same price at the opposite too, else, you will have to carry the bicycle like a cow from the boat to the jetty and also climbing the stairs!
大城就如吴哥一样，古迹区布满大小不同的古庙。由于这次目的是有那佛头，再加上这整个月不断地古庙冲击，所以我只去了3个古个参观。这里的古迹是需要付费的，古庙入门票各自收费50泰株。佛头神祗应该是蛮出名的，那里可是布满人潮，要平静摄取照片并不容易，幸好我不好大头像。当摄取了佛头照片后，我大城的任务就完成啦！我的平安夜静静地在大城平安度过，第二日的圣诞节也在此度过，然后当晚搭乘夜巴冲向没去过的清迈。
Ayutthaya is just similar as Angkor Wat, there are plenty of temples at the historical area. My purpose this time was just the Buddha's head, so i just went to visited 3 temple only. Each temple here need to buy the ticket and it's cost 50 Baht. The Buddha's head's seem to be the popular spot in Ayutthaya because surrounded by tourists. My mission was completed after took the photo here, and spent my quiet Christmas Eve and Christmas here, and heading to Chiang Mai at the night by the night bus.
