The Green Lung of Bangkok

The lush natural atmosphere of the park is maintained meticulously, and there’s even a strict smoking ban placed on the park. Due to the pristine condition of the park, it is popular with people ranging from tai chi practitioners to fitness enthusiasts, to couples looking for peaceful tranquillity.

There’s Something for Anyone and Everyone

The range of activities that are available in Lumphini Park is somewhat extraordinary, and there’s something for people of all ages. Children can have fun at the playgrounds within the park, while adults can attend the free aerobics lessons or indulge in some live music.

You can discover a few fascinating animals within the park. These also include monitor lizards which can grow to the size of a juvenile crocodile, but they’re mostly harmless.
