The city of Ayutthaya, the former capital of the Kingdom of Siam (now Thailand), was destroyed by invading Burmese forces in 1767. While Thai invaders typically refer to conflicts involving neighboring regions, Ayutthaya's fall marked a significant moment in Thai history, leading to the eventual establishment of Bangkok as the new capital. The city's ruins today are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, reflecting its historical importance and architectural grandeur.
