[@EugeneXar]

Hey JP! I have wanted to go to Sukhothai for so long and have not made the effort. Your vlog shows how beautiful the Old Town is. On my next visit to Thailand I will plan to spend some time there. Wish you had shown a bit more of the New Town. Not that I imagine it is so different from other Thai provincial towns. Keep well and all the best.

[@JPGoesGlobal]

Scott, yes! Sukhothai is great! And yeah, the new town wasn't thrilling footage. Busy but with the same amount of character as any Thai suburb.

[@EugeneXar]

Tee Touch Thanks for the information Tee! That makes perfect sense for Khmer influence in the area. Sometimes we forget that borders are fluid and change over the centuries yet evidence remains of past influence. Best wishes!

[@isaciccotelli7449]

Hey JP! I'm acting as a travel agent for my parents and they might visit Sukhothai! I was wondering-are there bathrooms scattered around the park?

[@felixl3477]

Hi JP, I do not know that Sukhothai is also Thailand's old capital. I only know Ayutthaya. Thanks for sharing this video with us. I learn a lot about Thailand after watching your video :)
By the way, have you been to Ayutthaya?

[@JPGoesGlobal]

Thanks for watching, Felix. I'm glad these videos are helping you learn new things. I go to Ayutthaya in two vlogs from now. Stay tuned!

[@theunexpectedlife801]

Oh Thailand! My love hate relationship starts up again in a few weeks. Do you ever get temple saturation though? Like I find there are only so many temples and ruins I can go and see!

[@JPGoesGlobal]

Haha, keep watching. In two vlogs, I'll reach that point... 😫

[@cameron-wd6sd]

Sukhothai is the first capital of Thailand.

And finally, the weak Khmer fell. Tai people rise. But Tai people were not cruel. We just absorbed all ethnic groups of the fallen Khmer. That's Tai people kingdom was strong 😂
