Bangkok - a city of bustling streets, towering skyscrapers and vibrant chaos.
But in the middle of this urban jungle lies a hidden gem, a lush sanctuary of greenery and excitement.
Bangkok - a city of bustling streets, towering skyscrapers and vibrant chaos.
But in the middle of this urban jungle lies a hidden gem, a lush sanctuary of greenery and excitement.A Majestic Creation:
Behind every great park lies a great story and Benjakitti Park is no exception.
Originally opened in 1992 to celebrate Queen Sirikit's 60th birthday, this park was given its charming name by the Queen herself.
In 2004, it underwent a major expansion and became the first park in Bangkok to feature a forest park. At 72 hectares of wonder, it offers more than just your usual green space. If you're lucky, you might spot monitor lizards. The shy animals have become accustomed to humans. But beware, if you get too close, they become nasty!
Lake Ratchada: A Romantic Escape:
Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of Lake Ratchada, affectionately known as Lake Rajada, which dominates three-quarters of the park.
The shimmering waters reflect the Bangkok skyline and provide the perfect backdrop for an evening stroll or a dreamy boat ride.
Imagine yourself gliding on a swan boat, surrounded by fish and turtles as the sun casts its magical hues on the cityscape.
Fitness Paradise:
Fitness fanatics, rejoice! Benjakitti Park has you covered, with dedicated jogging and cycling paths that wind through the park's picturesque corners.
But beware, fast cyclists - this is no Tour de France!
The park is all about relaxed rides and leisurely jogs.
So, let go, burn off the Thai delicacies and enjoy a refreshing workout in this green sanctuary.

Golden Buddha Statue
Highlight • Religious Site
He was a prince from northeastern India who attained enlightenment. This religion recognizes no omnipotent God, no creator, no beginning and no end of the world – but teaches the highest, peaceful respect for every living being.
Monks safeguarded Buddha's teachings after his death.
Sâmaneras are the Buddhist novices, students preparing to become fully ordained monks. They often wear a white robe to distinguish them from fully ordained monks, whose robes are made of simple fabric, dyed with the cheapest dye, red or yellow. They are allowed to own very little and live on alms. Poverty is the monks' wealth.
