There is also a boat tour which takes you to different temples in Ayutthaya. We took the boat tour and it was quite reasonable. They charge you 200 Bahts per person for approximately 2 hours of tour through the river. Some of the temples are private temples so the main ticket doesn't cover them. Wat Chai Watthanaram is covered in main ticket through which you get access to all main temples of Ayutthaya city of Thailand. Wat Chai Watthanaram is part of old town in Ayutthaya and is part of Ayutthaya Historical Park.  Wat Chai Watthanaram is not really a part of Historic City of Ayutthaya, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It can be reached by road or by boat.     Related Blogpost - Birds of Ayuthhaya || 10-Day Vacation in Thailand (Day 4)
