Suan Lumpini
Named after the Buddha's birthplace in Nepal, this is Bangkok's largest and
most popular park. The park is bordered by Rama IV Road to the South, Sarasin Road to the
North, Witthayu Road to the East and Ratchadamri Road to the West, with entrance gates on
all sides. A large artificial lake in the centre is surrounded by broad, well-tended
lawns, wooded areas and walking paths. In other words, it's the best outdoor escape from
Bangkok.
One of the best times to visit the park is in the early morning.Suan Lumphini is a place
of moods rather than sights. In the morning it's full of people exercising. More striking
and graceful than the joggers are Chinese tai chi groups, making slow movements to music.
Along the gates vendors set up tables to dispense fresh snake blood and bile, considered a
health tonic by many Thais and Chinese. Rowing boats and paddle boats can be rented
at the lake. A weightlifting area in one section becomes a miniature "muscle
beach" on the weekends. Other facilities include a snack bar, several areas with
tables and benches for picnics and a couple of tables where ladies serve Chinese tea. Rest
rooms are placed at intervals throughout the park.
