King's Visit to Ayutthaya

Thousands of Thais, waving Thai flags and the flags of the monarchy, line the streets of Bangkok and the old capital of Ayutthaya to greet His Majesty the King during his first trip outside of Bangkok and its surrounding provinces in almost three years. The King, who has been staying at Siriraj Hospital since Sept 2009, visited Thung Makham Yong district in Ayutthaya where he harvested rice back in 1996.
