Located in downtown Bangkok, the park was previously an industrial site for a state-owned cigarette manufacturer, but the Thai royal family has breathed new life into the area, transforming it into an urban ecological forest park to improve Bangkok’s liveability. With the intention to create the first wetland park of Bangkok, some two-third of the park’s front area was used to build a large pond under the concept of “Pa Rak Nam (Forest Protecting Water Resource)”.
Local resident, Khun Thanapol Sirithanachai (Woody), Country CEO of Frasers Property Thailand, who is an avid jogger, will guide this tour.
