Benjakitti Park is perched on a picturesque hilltop overlooking Ratchadapisek Road Khlong Toei, 10110, Thailand
We arrived at our hotel in Bangkok early in the morning and decided to walk off a long flight. Having never visited the park on any of our other visits we thought we would go have a look. It turns out to be a wonderful quiet peaceful, green space in the middle of this large busy city. A huge man made lake flanked on one side by a huge modern convention centre. The park is now split into two areas – the old traditional park of plants, trees and lake and the new wetlands. Both are merged well and are both well worth a walk through. The wetlands have paths through them as well as an elevated pathway with viewing areas. There is also a skywalk called ‘The Green Mile’ which links Benjakitti with Lumphini park and avoids the traffic however it is difficult to find and even many of the locals we spoke to could not tell us where it started.
Bridge/walkway between Lumpini Park and Benjakiti Park definitely worth your time. You can pick up this raised walkway from Bridge between Lumpini Park and Benjakiti Park from either end of the walkway. It’s a lovely stroll to and from both of the fantastic parks. There’s plenty of hits on google for those who are interested in getting information.
Nice park to walk around and enjoy the cityscape. The park seems to be quite new so apparently there will be more things done there soon. As of now seems there’s nothing much to do except just walking or jogging. Nice views nevertheless.
Benjakitti Park is one of the most soothing places in Bangkok. It is located between RatchadaPisek Road and Dumrong Pituk Road. There is a lake in the centre of the park, surrounded by green space which allows people to do activities. Since the place supports outdoor activities such as exercise, walking, and running, and allows art and music activities to be held, Benjakitti Park is truly the paradize for city people. Benjakiti Park is not just a normal green park because It contains four zones of forest which are different. Therefore, the visitors can visit several forests in one place. To visit around the park, the visitors can walk or run along the passageways which are arranged nicely. There are slow runways, fast runways, and bicycleways. Also, there are walkways through the forests which allow the visitors to perceive the forest’s atmosphere, which is a unique point compared with other parks in Bangkok. The visitors should visit there after 5 PM because the weather is super hot and they can get burned by the strong sunlight of Thailand. Moreover, visitors can go there conveniently by taking the BTS Skytrain to Asoke station, and the MRT subway to Sukhumvit station. Apart from that, It is near Queen Sirikit National Convention Center which usually holds activities and special events. The visitors can continue their trip there as well.Overall, Benjakitti Park is a spectacular green park that is the heaven existing in Bangkok.

Bangkoks answer to Central Park is the Benjakitti Park. The park is divided into a large lake with a 10 km jogging trail around it and a forest park. The forest park can be explored by the sky walk that leads you through different kinds of forests. Connected with the Lumphini Park is the Benjakitti Park by the Sky walk Benchakitti- kind of Bangkoks Highline. The Benjakitti park is easy to reach by MRT blue line station Queen Sirikit Center or via Sky walk from Lumphini – north east corner.
Great place for an early morning walk. Enough options to choose for your walk. Elevated or ground level. Separate track for cycling and sports arena coming up
Benchakitti Park is a quiet and peaceful former of a busy capital. I loved this green lung in the middle of Bangkok – you see animals, trees and flowers you wouldn’t think is a part of a city of millions of people.Use the skywalk and enjoy the fascinating view of tree tops and skyscrapers
Unfortunately, during my visit today I witnessed a pair of south-asians tourists who thought it was an appropriate location to perform adult acts on each other.Seen at approximately 14:30 – 15:30 on the raised viewing zone in the north zone, there was no guard nearby, the nearest was far and was fast asleep. I later came across a guard and let him know what happened but by then it was probably too late.CCTV should verify my claim and they should be deported, to be honest. Disgusting animals.
Magnificent park, a place where you can get away from the hustling and bustling traffic of BKK and yet, it is in the middle of the city. Thanks to the city of Bangkok for building this park for tourists like to come and enjoy everytime I am in BKK. A truly beautiful park for the people and tourists alike to enjoy.🙏👍
