Lumpini Park is a green escape in central Bangkok, where you can relax in the shade and enjoy some fresh air. Take an early morning walk or visit at dusk, go cycling, hire a paddle boat on the artificial lake, or wander the winding paths.
Benjakitti Park
Walk through the landscaped woodland of Benjakitti Park, a pleasant place for a stroll, with a separate cycle track. The large artificial lake at its heart is lovely to look at, and you can hire a small pedal boat. The park is also popular with joggers and cyclists, and the lake makes a good backdrop for photos.
