What to do and see in Phra Nakhon, Thailand: The Best Nature & Parks
Golden palaces, floating markets, majestic porcelain-laid spires…you've never seen a capital city quite like Bangkok. Visit Pratunam or Siam Square for premium shopping, then unwind in the European-style gardens of Dusit. Thon Buri is home to the awesome Wat Arun temple, and over in Phra Nakhon, you’ll find the Wat Pho temple of the Reclining Buddha. Savor mango sticky rice at a food stall before taking in the gilded splendor of the Grand Palace.

This park is built around one of the few remaining structures of the old city fortifications.

This lovely park is the perfect antidote to the Bangkok heat and humidity, particularly very early in the morning when a breeze wafts off the Chao Praya river and maybe some welcome spray. People come here for jazzercise and tai chi or private yoga or just to take in the panoply of the river traffic. The fort and abutting canal provide plenty of scenic interest, the trees are beautiful and the manicured grass comfy. It is an island of serenity. After chilling here, go for a walk on the waterfront boardwalk to Phra Athit Pier. This park is my number one getaway in Bangkok.

This park was originally part of a royal palace built in 1866.
Reviewed By bobbyb396 - Fremantle, Australia
This park is so close to the most highly rated attractions on Rattanakosin Island that I recommend including it in a tour, for example if walking from the temple of the reclining Buddha to the temple of the emerald Buddha (both in TripAdvisor’s top 5 ranked attractions in Bangkok) walk through the park rather than follow the road. There is an ornate fountain reminiscent of something that might be found in Versailles. There is a European influence about the style of the decaying buildings here. An inscription on a boulder near the main gate tells us that the park was part of a royal palace built in 1866 and later (1960) opened to the public. Large-billed Crows were moving about in the tops of the old trees and swooping down to feed on the scraps left by visitors. An Asian Koel was making the call which gives it its name “ko-el ko-el ko-el”; these birds are known for their cuckoo-like behavior laying their eggs in the nests of another species of bird, in this case the Large-billed Crow. A little ecosystem within a concrete city!
