Benjakitti Park, Urban park in Khlong Toei, Thailand
Benjakitti Park is a sprawling green space in Khlong Toei that spans about 200 acres with walking trails, cycling paths, and a central lake. The space features open recreational areas, rest spots, and is surrounded by local vegetation and water features throughout.
The site was formerly industrial land until 2004, when it was converted into a public park. This transformation marked part of Bangkok's broader effort to create more green spaces within the city.
The park serves as a gathering place where locals exercise, walk, and meet friends in the mornings and evenings. Its open spaces host community celebrations and cultural events that bring neighborhood residents together throughout the year.
Multiple entrances provide easy access to the park, with connections to nearby BTS transit stations and bus stops for convenient arrival. Facilities inside include restrooms, drinking fountains, and exercise equipment available for visitors to use throughout the day.
The central lake reflects Bangkok's skyline and tall buildings, creating striking views especially during sunrise and sunset hours. This blend of water, vegetation, and distant city towers offers visitors unexpected photo moments and reveals how the park sits close to the busy urban core.
