The most beautiful parks and gardens Bangkok

With its 58 hectares of greenery and lakes, it is the largest park in the city and the most appreciated by Thais. It has between 10,000 and 15,000 visitors per day! In the centre is an artificial lake. Miles of tree-lined paths make you forget the city of Bangkok. Early in the morning, we meet many joggers, groups practicing tai chi or doing aerobics (crazy laughter guaranteed by watching groups wiggle to music that is far too loud). After the exercise, a few walk to stands selling blood and snake bile to regain their strength. Various beverage and food stands also offer more common dishes. The Bangkok Symphony Orchestra performs outdoors every Sunday from December to January, but other events regularly take place in the park. In the northern part of the park, by crossing one of the small bridges that allows you to leave the island, you may see a debonair monitor of quite beautiful size (more than one meter!) that heats up in the sun in the late afternoon. Lumpini is a stopover not to be missed to get out of the hustle and bustle of the city and to soak up the daily life of the local population. It is also here that the celebration of Loy Krathong in the Thai capital is the most interesting to experience. There are entrances on Rama IV Road, Sarasin Road, Witthayu Road and Ratchadamri Road. Close to the main entrance, buses departing for casinos in Cambodia.

Chatuchak Park, inaugurated in December 1980, is one of Bangkok's oldest parks. It was then enhanced with Queen Sirikit Park and Wachirabenchatat Park, although they are separated from Chatuchak Park by Kampaeng Phet Street. It is all in length and has an artificial lake, and several small bridges connect each shore. It is the ideal place for a picnic, jogging or cycling. A small train museum is located on site. Very popular on weekends, especially because of its proximity to the Chatuchak market.
