Ayutthaya Monk Chat

In this area, you can chat with Buddhist monks. You can have conversations. They can guide you through meditation. Be aware that they are forbidden from touching women. We started our conversation intending to talk for 5 minutes, but it ended up lasting 2.5 hours. It was an interesting and profound conversation about Buddhism, Sufism, meditation, nature, the universe, etc. They do all this free of charge. They don't even accept donations!
