The area
Address
Neighborhood: Silom
Despite the lack of any major tourist attractions, this lively neighborhood is a favorite of many. Whether it's the (somewhat naughty) nightlife of Soi Patpong, the various handicraft night markets or the plethora of dining options that tickle your fancy, a night out in Silom is a must on every itinerary. It's worth a stop during daytime, too: join office workers on a quest to tasty street food during lunch and shop at Silom Complex for a great mix of Thai and international stores. After a day of strolling around the congested sidewalks, a visit to Silom's Lumphini Park, Bangkok's answer to NYC's Central Park, is a welcome change of scenery.

Sanctuary within the busy city
Nov 2022 • Solo
Lumphini park remains one of the only peaceful parks I’ve found in the Bangkok area. Easy to access from MRT or BTS. Great place for a jog or a stroll, or to bring a picnic lunch. You can even rent pedal boats. I visited at midday on a Saturday, and there were many people there enjoying the park, although it didn’t seem overcrowded. Saw at least 3 tai chi groups practicing, which added to the peaceful vibe. There are many large monitor lizards walking around and swimming in the lake. Bathrooms were clean enough, by park standards. A nice getaway from the buzz of the big city.

Great place to wind down and calm
Feb 2023
It was actually a great place to wind down and rest. The city of Bangkok can be quite chaos sometimes and I was from somewhere taking the train to reach here. It was completely different environment than outside of the park. Outside of the park it was quite tense with the traffic and people, but when I entered the park I feel so calm and peace although I am still inside the city. People are calmly walking/jogging and exercising. Some people are just sitting on the bench enjoying the view, and some are enjoying the activity that they are doing. Although, there was a lot of big lizard around in the park, which I am scared of it because in my country lizard and human does not get along well. But here it seems that no one is bother by that and the lizard seems okay with as if the human and lizard are fine cohabitate. Overall, it was a great place to wind down and take a minute from the city.

A Pleasant Walk, Run, or Cycle, just watch out for the Monitor Lizards!
Sep 2022
My wife and I were staying fairly local to Lumpini Park, so it was a pleasant escape from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Whilst it is not a dreamy location to while away the hours with a good book and an amazing view, the scenery is pleasant, the walkways are clean, and accessible, offering nice views of the various ponds and the opportunity to bump into any number of HUMONGOUS monitor lizards. They are extraordinary creatures that seem at home with the presence of humans and various vehicles alike.

As a location to walk around, or to join the throngs as they run the various circuits early morning or in the afternoon, I would recommend Lumpini Park, and will no doubt return if we are staying in the vicinity when we next visit Bangkok. Whether it is worth a visit if you are staying much further than walking distance is for the individuals to decide, but overall, it was a thumbs up from us!

A very large public park
Nov 2022 • Couples
A very large public park in the crowded city of Bangkok. In the mornings and after work is when you see the most amount of people there for walking, jogging, running, and Tai Chai.
Plenty of restrooms throughout the park. I enjoyed taking pictures of the large lizards, cats, and the artificial lake.

Not sure what I was expecting from this park but left a little bit disappointed
Jan 2020 • Couples
We made the most of our afternoon at the park, but it’s not why you would describe as a pretty park. There is not much flora, but cool lake in the center. You can hire a pedal boat for 30 mins or more, very inexpensive and this gave us a few giggles. Feeding the fish was very entertaining from the pedlow!

There are a couple of vendors last where you can buy fish food from and you can either feed the fish from the side of lake or from you pedlow!

There are a couple little shops vendors/carts selling drinks and snacks.

Lumpini, a place of symphony
Jan 2022 • Solo
I expect nothing less than a place where you can unwind and escape the bustling city of Bangkok.. And guess what? This park is IN Bangkok.

It's a huge area where there is a man-made lake with several jogging trails surrounded by lush vegetation. And, there is nothing more relaxing than to hear the natural breeze and birds chirping as you walk or jog through the entire place.

When I went there in January 2022, Lumpini Park is open from 5am to 9pm. Upon entering, they have temperature check and sanitizer.

The best public park in busy city, Bangkok
Mar 2021
Lumpini park is located in the center of the city. Anyone getting a chance to explore the city will often stop to rest at this peaceful park. I see some people visit for different purposes like partying, exercising, or even dating. For me, I usually go for a jog after school. The fresh air together with a serene blue sky always keeps me relaxing. Every time, I get stressed from work, I come and sit by the pond to appreciate the beautiful city view for some time. That really helps me a lot. That's why I will recommend Lumpini Park. It is a must to visit once in a life time when traveling to BKK.

Lumpini Park
Dec 2022 • Friends
Lumpini Park gives BKK a green space that the city needs. Excellent for walkers, runners and bikers. Fresh respite from the noise and smoke. The man made lake is a sight to behold. The Queen Sirikit Convention Center is located inside the park. The so-called world’s cheapest buffet is located just outside of the park🇹🇭

Lumphini Park - nice place in central Bangkok
Oct 2022
Lumphini Park is the first public park in Bangkok. Here you can relax and practice various sports. Attractions for children were also taken care of. This makes a visit there ideal for: tourists, couples and families. The lake and a lot of flora and fauna make this place an oasis of peace in the very center of the capital of Thailand. Facilities such as: space for activities for people with disabilities and special car parks have also been prepared. There is also a statue of King Rama VI built in 1942 to commemorate the creation of the park.

I had the opportunity to visit Lumphini Park several times and I remember my visits there with pleasure.

Lush green paradise,in the heart of city
Sep 2020
There's no doubt that LUMPINI PARK is one of the most attractive urban parks in the city. It attracts diverse people -joggers,walkers,exercisers, dreamers.There are also paddle-boats in the lake, for the adventurers. I enjoyed the free aerobics session in one section of the park.
The park is large and scenic enough , for exercise, enjoyment, and most important, social distancing.There's plenty of space for car-parking too.Being close to both Silom Road and Langsuan road, there are plenty of dining options.
