20 Best Things to Do in Bangkok

"A 102-acre green space prized for being calmer and shadier than the city's most popular park; visitors can rent boats to paddle on lotus ponds, follow a jungle-like jogging path, and use an elevated 'Green Mile' skywalk to get canopy-level views of wetlands and more than 90 bird species. The park also hosts concerts and outdoor films in the cooler months, making it a peaceful respite from urban bustle." - Katie Jackson Katie Jackson Katie Jackson is a New York City-based writer who covers travel, food, and more.

I Grew Up Along Bangkok's Canals — Here's How Its Rich History Connects to the Forward-thinking City

"Last year saw the expansion of Benjakitti Park on a downtown plot of land once used by the state-owned tobacco monopoly. The park’s new section uses wetland plants to cleanse water fed from nearby canals, and the former factory buildings have been converted into sports facilities." - Mai Nardone

The 20 Best Things to Do in Bangkok

"Benchakitti Park has been around since 1994, but its brand new, 120-acre expansion makes it the most beautiful green space in the city. The ecological forest park's blossoming lotus ponds and mounds of earth make it a prime place for locals to take wedding and graduation photos. The plethora of winding walking trails, bike lanes and the 1.2-mile elevated skywalk are ideal for early-morning or late-afternoon exercise sessions. The skywalk's elevated view of the variety of sprouting trees, flowers, and wetlands creates a serene space with a skyscraper backdrop. The skywalk leads to various sites, including the park’s museum, amphitheater, sports building, and a mangrove forest. The park is free to use and a calming nature reprieve from the steamy concrete jungle that is Bangkok." - Diana Hubbell, Katie Lockhart

The Best New Museums in the World: 2023 Hot List

"Over the past several decades, concrete and steel replaced much of what was left of the greenery around Thailand's fast-growing capital. But with the opening of the new Benjakitti Forest Park, that's finally being turned around."

One of the best parks I’ve ever been! Really huge area with different zones. You can choose so many roads to walk, some of them on the bridge. Nature is amazing here! I saw here the biggest lotus I’ve ever seen. Squirrels, huge monitor lizard (do be careful on the grass), different birds. Park opens from 4:30am till 22:00 so you can come any time avoiding heat outside. There are free drinking fountain so take your reusable bottle (but not all worked), free WC.

Easily one of my favorite parks I've been. It's a complete 180 from the City offering an incredible dense section of vegetation, fun curved paths, sky walks, loads of recreational options, playgrounds, a tree promenade, a beautiful lake with three huge fountains surrounded by skyscrapers. It's well designed, and the perfect escape from the urban enviroment!

One of the best public parks in Bangkok 🌳🌼. It's incredibly easy to access and impressively spacious 🛣️🏞️. The entire area is beautifully maintained—trees, flowers, grass, and landscaping all look lush and well-kept 🌿🌺. The construction and layout are thoughtfully done 🧱✨. It’s a popular spot for running, exercising, or just taking a relaxing walk 🚶‍♂️🏃‍♀️, and despite the crowd, the space never feels cramped. The running track is excellent—long enough for serious training—with clearly marked lanes and smooth surfaces 🏃‍♂️🛤️. There are designated zones for activities, picnics, and even creative hangouts, making it ideal for a wide variety of people and purposes 🎨🧺🤸. Plenty of unique photo spots are scattered throughout, with both charming natural views and trendy urban vibes 📸🌇. On a good-weather day, especially in the morning or late afternoon, the atmosphere is absolutely fantastic 🌤️💖.

Stunning Park, probably one of the best urban parks I've been to. It's a fantastic way to escape and recharge from the traffic noise of Bangkok. Hats off to the all of the people that were part of designing this park because they've done an amazing job

A Verdant Oasis: My Absolute Favorite Park in Bangkok! Stepping into this park is like entering a botanical wonderland. Without a doubt, it's one of the most beautiful parks I've ever had the pleasure of visiting, and it has firmly cemented itself as my absolute favorite green space in all of Bangkok. What truly sets this park apart is its incredible diversity of plant life. Every visit is a journey of discovery, with so many different types of plants to admire, from towering trees to delicate blossoms. For a plant enthusiast like myself, it's an absolute paradise. We primarily come here to immerse ourselves in the sheer beauty and variety of the flora, and it never disappoints. The meticulous landscaping and evident care for the plant collections are truly commendable. If you're in Bangkok and seeking a tranquil escape filled with the wonders of nature, this park is an absolute must-visit. Prepare to be enchanted by its vibrant greenery and diverse botanical treasures!

Lovely park, beautifully cleaned and well maintained. Separate walking and running tracks around the entire park. Cute boats to pedal along for hire. Ample benches and shaded seating around the park. Nice public fitness equipment available. Toilets are clean with toilet paper and soap provided.

For peace and tranquility, this is one of the best parks I have found in the city. It's really big, and the traffic noise is almost non-existent. Very few people to see, except the park workers, unlike the more famous parks. Walking, running, and cycle tracks, plus a network or ground level and raised walkways throughout. A mixture of grassy areas, wetlands, and sports halls (table tennis, badminton, hand/pickle ball, football/soccer, etc.). Wet areas are full of fish, so no mosquitos! Several kids play and educational zones. And best of all, it's FREE!

Loved strolling around here. There’s a whole network of sky bridges above the park, making it a great way to see both the park and the city. Just make sure to do so in the morning or evening, as there isn’t much shade up there. The entire lake area is also stunning.
