Ayutthaya or Ayodhaya of Thailand

Every one knows the Ayodhya which is the birth place of Rama in Uttara Pradesh India. Very few people know that there is another city Ayutthaya which is named after Ayodhya. This is in Thailand between 1350 AD to 1767 AD. This indicates the influence of Hinduism in Thailand at that time. It is believed that this city is associated with the Thai National epic
Ramakien which is the South Eastern version of Indian epic RAMAYANA. for more information on Ayutthaya please see
