Siam Society is holding "China For Ayutthaya", a one-day exhibition on Chinese exports to Siam, on Thursday at 10.30am.
Participants will be taken back in time to the Ayutthaya era to witness the treasures of the past and learn about tributary trade relations between Siam and the Middle Kingdom of China that lasted over 480 years.
It started when Zhao Yan-gu-man, representative of the king of Siam, travelled to the Ming Court in October 1371, bringing trained elephants, a six-legged tortoise and local products as a tribute for the Emperor Hongwu.
