Sukothai is considered to be the first capitol of Thailand (then Siam) and is revered as the golden age of Thailand. The first works of Thai literature were found here on inscription stones, describing the mythological rise of King RamKhamhaeng. Sukothai was the first capital of Thailand and was so until the rise of Ayutthayah. Ayutthayah became the official capitol of Thailand in 1438.
