Santichaiprakarn Park

Santichaiprakarn Park is a public green space on the eastern bank of the Chao Phraya River in central Bangkok with maintained lawns, pathways, and seating areas. Various trees spread across the grounds offer shade and frame the riverside edge throughout the space.

The grounds were created in 1999 as a commemorative space and occupy the former site of a sugar processing facility. This transformation changed an industrial area into a public recreation space.

The park honors the former king and serves as a gathering place where residents enjoy leisurely walks or riverside moments. Locals use the space to spend time with family or watch the sunset over the water.

The park is open daily from early morning until late evening and offers plenty of space to explore on foot. There are shaded areas beneath trees and seating spots where visitors can rest.

The grounds still feature the last mangrove apple trees in Bangkok, whose name once defined the nearby residential neighborhood. These historic trees remind visitors of a time when the area was known for these plantings.
