Ancient Siam (also known as Ancient City)is a park constructed under the patronage of Lek Viriyaphant and spreading over 200 acres in the shape of Thailand.The founder's original idea was to create a golf course with miniatures of Thailand's historically significant structures spread around the course. 
Ancient Siam is dubbed as the world's largest outdoor museum. Situated close to the Crocodile Farm in Samut Prakan province, the 320-hectare city features 116 structures of Thailand's famous monuments and architectural attractions. The replicas were constructed with the assistance of experts from the National Museum to ensure historical accuracy. 
The Grand Hall of Wat Maha That in the old Sukhothai Kingdom is composed of eleven large rooms. It is believed that there is also a niche behind the pedestal in which a bronze Buddha image, named Phra Sri Sakya Muni, was seated. Nearby are the statues of four distinctive gestures which are known as Phra Si Iriyabot. The statues show unique characteristics of the distinguished art in casting the image in Sukhothai, Si Satchanalai and Kamphaeng Phet.
