Muang Khu Bua Ancient Ruin is an ancient remnant of the once prosperous capital city of the Dvaravati Kingdom that reigned the area from the 6th to the 11th centuries and it is a reminder of how rich in history Ratchaburi is.
Unfortunately, only the base of what is considered to be one of the largest pagodas at the time that was only second to Phra Pathom Chedi in Nakhon Pathom, is left standing but you can still walk around and visit the weekend market that surrounded the ruin.
Muang Khu Bua market is probably one of the most colorful markets you will see in Ratchaburi. The market is decorated with colorful lanterns, umbrellas, and all kinds of colorful decors. Within the market, you will find local people dressed in traditional dresses, selling street food, and snacks as well as handicrafts products.
If you are planning to visit the ancient ruin as well as the market, be sure to be there either on a Saturday or Sunday as the market only opens on the weekend.
