While the city of Bangkok may be known for its sometimes chaotic traffic, lively markets and constant throng of activity, the Thai capital is also home to lush pockets of greenery such as the Rama IX Park where one can get away from it all. While this well known site can be found on the city’s outskirts, it is best to find centrally located Bangkok serviced apartments which to base yourself at. Anantara Baan Rajprasong Bangkok is one such option and features luxurious Sukhumvit accommodation that is also within easy reach of another green oasis in the city, Lumpini Park.
Rama IX Park is one of the biggest green spaces in the Thai capital and provides an ideal setting in which to enjoy some fun family time together or to take a romantic stroll with that special someone. Featuring a botanical garden, scenic lake and various themed sections, this park offers an unforgettable day out for nature lovers. A particular feature of the Rama IX Park is its different gardens each representing a different country. The Chinese garden with its wooden pavilion, the American garden which houses a desert like landscape and the Italian garden which features fountains are among the sites of interest here. One can also take a fun pedal-boat ride on the park’s lake, while those visiting during December can experience the colourful splendour of the annual flower festival.
