First step in lopburi

Actually,I think most of the visitors to Lopburi are travel by a train from Bangkok the capital city of Thailand and chosen to visit Lopburi for a day and go back to Bangkok or Ayuddhaya in the evening if yes, you may want to see the small city as much as you can in about 2-3 hrs..As most of you knew already Lopburi is famous for the city of monkey and the ruin capital city of siam during king Narai the great in 1680s.When you get off at the Lopburi station and then take a walk for about 100 meters to SAN PRA KAN and the city land mark PRA PRANG SAM YOT where you can see a lot of the monkeys over there.keep things in safe and secure otherwise naughty monkey may take away .prepare you weapons the camera set ready to shoot as much as you can and enjoy seeing the monkey actions in various ways naturally which is you may never seen anyplace before.
then after that you may want to see around the city for the ruin capital city like the old palace, the museum ,and the ambassador house and ect.
