Sukhothai actually consists of two parts, the new city and the old city, some 14 kilometres to the west. After arriving in the new city in the afternoon, I didn't hesitate but headed directly to the old city, even though I knew it would be insufficient to see it all. Half an hour in a songthaew took me directly to the entrance of Sukhothai historic park. While the sun was going down, I had a great view of Wat Mahathat, one of the best preserved complexes of the park. The main temple has a lotus shape and there are several Buddhas in Ceylonese style. There are still many beautiful carvings in a remarkable good condition, and apart from admiring the wat (or temple) itself, it is a fine place to just spend some time.
