    This is a breathtaking testament to human ingenuity and creativity. We took the BTS and then the short bus trip to this exceptional place. I think this proves that so very often religion brings out the vert best in humans.

    I have been there a few times when I lived in Paknam. It is very beautiful and dedicated to king Ashoka. I was there in November 2007, not 2011.

    The Bangpu Recreation Center is famous (especially among Thais) for observing the thousands of migratory birds (Mongolian and black-headed gulls in huge numbers) that congregate here from late October until March or April. Of course, the numbers are jacked up by the fact the people regularly feed the gulls. In late afternoon, the place becomes a wild circus, with hundreds, if not thousands, of visitors, especially on weekends and holiday-. Very popular for photographing the flocks of gulls that have become quite fearless of people. Can be a great place to watch the sunset. No entry fees.

    Went there mainly for Big C as It was the closest to the gym I was staying at. Wide range of items sold. Prices are clearly stated. Clearly frequented mainly by locals = price-friendly :)

    Got a massage at a cosy,clean and comfortable massage place. It's located near the back entrance of the mall. An hour massage for 180 Baht :)

    Around and opposite the mall, there are street markets.

    There are lots of meter taxis waiting near the entrance of the mall. So heading back to your hotel etc is a breeze.

    If you are interested in History, especially military history, this museum shows you things you probably won't see anywhere else. It's small, and most of the descriptions are in Thai (naturally) but a lovely young woman from the museum caught up with me an gave me explanation in English.

    The museum is free, and is easy to get to by BTS.

    I found this place fascinating as there was a real estuarine atmosphere; one of being close to the sea coast and also close to the glorious fruits of the sea therein. It wasa a taste- literally- of old Thailand what with the overflowing prawn pots and more 'local colour' than you could poke a stick at.

    Absolutely lovely, big temple complex. Mixture of Chinese and thai style, near the water with great views, several buildings and a huge black budda statue, worth seeing

    The Bangpu Nature Education Center is adjacent to the wildly popular Bangpu Recreation Center, where throngs of people congregate to feed and watch migratory gulls. The Nature Education Center is a more serious operation, aimed at more awareness of the coastal ecosystem. It mainly caters to school groups, but does offer daily short nature hikes at 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. They have raised walkways winding through the mangroves, which are quite pleasant. Some areas of the coast are pretty trashy and be warned there are lots of mosquitoes in the shade and sunburn in the open.... come prepared.

    Good walking and jogging tracks and exercise stations for those outdoor lovers near the landmarks of the Late King: Lat Pho Canal, Industrial Ring Road, Bhumibol Bridges, night time visit with the colorful view for those who don't like sunray.

    Location: *****
    easily accessible by private car or taxi and public transport, near Lat Pho Canal, just under the confluence of roads and bridges of the industrial ring road.

    although the walking and jogging tracks are quite convenient for a wheelchair, no disabled parking, disabled toilet is locked.

    the area and toilets are all at standard cleanness.

    Safety: ***
    no security guards, but the place is quite safe with a good park lighting.
