The 200-acre Rama IX Park, or Suan Luang Ror Kaow, is located in east Bangkok on Sukhumvit Soi 103 (Soi Udomsuk). Opened in 1987 to commemorate the fifth-cycle birth anniversary of His Majesty the King, the park comprises extensive landscaped gardens, botanical gardens and a water park. At the center of the park is an eye-pleasing crown-shaped building that houses an exhibition of His Majesty's life and works. Rama IX Park is a popular weekend getaway for the city residents. Just watch out for the green mini-buses that congregate at the end of Soi 103 to get to the park.Rama IX Park is open everyday from 6.00 am to 6.00 pm. The admission fee is 10 baht.
I enjoy most the beautiful 'Royal Sala' near the entrance of the park. It's always great to get away from all the hectic in Bangkok and enjoy a day in the park.
