Brief Description
"Sukhothai was the capital of the first Kingdom of Siam in the 13th and 14th centuries. It has a number of fine monuments, illustrating the beginnings of Thai architecture. The great civilization which evolved in the Kingdom of Sukhothai absorbed numerous influences and ancient local traditions; the rapid assimilation of all these elements forged what is known as the 'Sukhothai style'."

"素可泰是13世纪和14世纪暹罗第一王国的首府，这里矗立着许多引人注目的纪念性建筑，反映了泰国早期建筑的艺术风格。素可泰王国时期逐步形成的灿烂文明迅速吸收了各种文化成分，并结合当地的古老传统，以此构成现在所谓的“素可泰风格”。"

Sukhothai is worth a visit, full of magnificent temples and in a very beautiful environment. I specially liked the quieter park of Si Satchanalai, a few km from there. You cee all my pictures of both parks here: http://gonzalobroto.blogspot.com/2014/04/thailand-historical-parks-sukhothai-si.html
