Lopburi is a small city with ruined buildings like temple or palace. Once you get there by train you can hire Tuk Tuk, motorbike taxi or Sam lor to explore the city. Start from the train station you can travel in circle to visit the ruined place there.
After we got out of Lopburi train station, we saw a big ruined temple. We walked across the street to the temple, Wat Prasrirattanamahathat. That was the first place we visited in Lopburi.
After we got out of the temple there was an old man waiting for us and offered us a Sam Lor ride around the city for 200 or 300 baht. It must be hard work for him!!
In Ayutthaya era, there was a king named Narai had the second house there. It's called Narai Ratchaniwet Palace.
We had been to 2-3 places but never saw any monkeys yet. Then we saw one running in front of the building and we took pictures of him. Once we got to Pra Prang Samyod, we saw lots of them there. It was like the big house of monkeys. We bought some monkey food from a boy there. He gave us a tour around the place and told us how to feed the monkeys.
After that we walked to San Prakarn, where the monkey god was. We hardly saw monkeys there but there was a monkey sitting there eating boiled eggs but he ate only the yolk and threw the white away. Before we got to San Prakarn, we saw a big group of monkeys walking across the road.
After we were done, we went back to the train station. We got the standee tickets and no a/c. When we got back to the hotel in Ayutthaya we cleaned ourselves and were ready to leave. We checked out almost at 5 pm and took the train back to Bangkok.
We took lots of photos from there. It was a good place for photos!
