Queen Sirikit Park

Queen Sirikit Park

Overview

Queen Sirikit Park is a botanical garden inside the larger Chatuchak Park green space in northern Bangkok. It's named after Queen Sirikit and centres on fountains, ponds and lotus displays rather than rides or attractions. The appeal is the plant collections — bananas, palms, hibiscus, water lilies and lotus among them — plus a fair number of butterflies, making it a spot for a slow walk rather than a full day out. It's a quieter, more cultivated counterpart to the adjoining Chatuchak Park.

Getting there

From central Bangkok, the BTS Skytrain to Mo Chit station or the MRT to Chatuchak Park station both put you within a short walk of the park entrance. Depending on where in the city centre you start (Siam, Sukhumvit, or the riverside), the trip typically takes 25–45 minutes by train.

Time to allow

An hour to ninety minutes is enough to walk the paths, see the ponds and fountains, and take in the plant collections without rushing.

Best time to visit

Early morning is more comfortable given Bangkok's heat and humidity, and lotus flowers tend to be more open earlier in the day. Weekends can bring more visitors, partly overlap with crowds heading to the nearby weekend market, so a weekday visit is calmer if your schedule allows.

Combine with

Chatuchak Park itself is right next door (0.6km) and easy to fold into the same visit for a longer green-space walk. Chatuchak Weekend Market (0.7km) is an easy add-on if you're visiting on a Saturday or Sunday, when the market operates. Both the Elephant Building (2.9km) and Rama VI Bridge (3.8km) are further out and better suited to a separate trip.

Chatuchak Park

Parks & gardens

Chatuchak Park

Chatuchak Park is a public park in the southwest of Bangkok's Chatuchak district, and in fact the district itself takes its name from the park. With wide lawns, walking paths, and a lake, it's a pleasant escape from the city center for walking or jogging, and Chatuchak Park MRT station beneath it makes it easy to reach. Rather than a flashy attraction, it's more of an everyday neighborhood park where locals come to exercise and relax.

Rama VI Bridge

Views & landmarks

Rama VI Bridge

Rama VI Bridge is a railway bridge spanning the Chao Phraya River through Bangkok, connecting the Bang Sue and Bang Phlat districts. Since it's a working railway bridge rather than a purpose-built tourist site, it mainly draws travelers looking for a spot to watch trains crossing the river against the backdrop of the riverside scenery.
