Thailand Bangkok Bangkok
Lumpini Park View
An iconic urban oasis in Bangkok's heart, offering green spaces, a tranquil lake, and skyline vistas for relaxation amidst the bustling city.
Tips from the community
Lumpini Park is real Bangkok. It was the first public park in the city and here you’ll find the locals doing what locals do. Some serious ladies will be playing tennis. Some old guys will be playing chess. A few macho guys will be lifting weights at the rusty outdoor gym. Some talented young kids will be playing takraw (think of a mix between volleyball and hacky sack). And if you’re lucky, you’ll get to see a monitor lizard crawl out of the pond and eat a turtle. Just locals going about their ordinary day.
The park is massive for being smack in the middle of the city. Grab a cold soda or an ice cream bar and wander around observing local life in Bangkok. Bring a blanket and find a shady spot to watch the world go by. Do give a wide berth to the monitor lizards, though. They’re not friendly.
