King Rama IX Memorial Park, Royal memorial park in Suan Chitlada, Bangkok, Thailand
King Rama IX Memorial Park is a large public green space in Bangkok featuring extensive gardens, walking paths, and cycling routes surrounding a grand central monument. The grounds offer different areas to explore, from densely planted sections to more open spaces with clear sightlines.
The park was created in 2021 by transforming a former horse racing track into a public memorial space. This conversion marked an important moment to honor the late king's legacy and his environmental work.
The central monument displays Thai architectural design and reflects the late king's commitment to environmental stewardship. Walking through the park, visitors naturally notice how these traditional elements shape the entire space.
The grounds are accessible from multiple sides, with parking for cars and buses available around the edges. Visitors should wear proper footwear since the pathways cover large distances and shaded areas may be limited.
The grounds feature a lake system arranged in the shape of the Thai numeral 9, demonstrating sustainable water management methods. This innovative design connects practical function with symbolic meaning in a way many visitors miss.
