This spectacle, part of the Ayutthaya Sundown 2024 initiative by the Ministry of Culture, will paint Thailand’s rich cultural tapestry in the twilight hues at the ancient site.
An unforgettable evening awaits, where the UNESCO-recognized Khon, a complex performance art involving music, dance, and storytelling, will bring to life the epic adventures of the heroic Rama.
