Reviews Suan Luang Rama IX


This park offers a wonderful natural experience with vibrant flowers, puddle boating, tortoises, and even monitor lizards. It's also one of the best spots to catch a sunset in Bangkok. There’s bike parking available for 25 Baht, and you can rent a boat for 60 or 120 THB. It's a great place for bird watching and has plenty of activities for kids. However, it gets really hot between 11 AM and 3 PM, so plan your visit accordingly. If you want to enjoy the sunset, rent a boat around 5:30 PM and be there by 5 PM to catch the best views. Some gardens close by 4 PM, and getting a Grab or taxi back can be a bit tricky. Certified guide dogs might be allowed, but I didn't see any during my visit.


I absolutely love this park! If you enjoy being surrounded by nature’s beauty, this place is a must-visit. It's incredibly tranquil with very few people around, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the peaceful surroundings.


Suan Luang Rama IX Park is an incredible spot if you're into running or cycling. There are tons of routes to explore, and the best part is that it’s free to enter after 5 PM. If you're visiting between 9 AM and 5 PM, there's a small fee of 10 THB. The park is filled with beautiful flowers, plants, and cute mini gardens, and it's now connected to the Nong Bon reservoir, making the running routes even more fun and extensive. It's a fantastic place to spend your evening or even half a day, but it can get really hot during the day, so I’d recommend going later in the afternoon. There are water stalls for purchase, but note that the toilets aren't free.


Love this place! It's really big and nice. Beautiful trees, alleys, gardens, bridges and a lake. Great for walking, exercising or just relaxing.
