The parks and gardens in Bangkok present the more aesthetic aspect of the city
of Bangkok. You will be committing a serious fallacy if you think Bangkok is only
about highrises, malls and traffic congestion. There are plenty tranquil green
places in the form of gardens and parks. Bangkok is dotted by a number of parks
and gardens that enables the residents to breathe uncontaminated fresh air and
indulge in healthy outdoor activities.
The best part about the parks and gardens in Bangkok is that they offer a variety
of sport facilities and a wide number of recreational amenities and that too
at a nominal cost. The parks are a favorite haunt of the health conscious. Most
of the parks have jogging tracks and open air gymnasiums, not to mention the
scope for aerobics and meditation. Some like the Lumphini Park feature an artificial
lake where you can rent boats and experience the pleasure of boating in the
tranquil waters of the lake. More than anything else, the parks and gardens
are a pleasurable retreat for the old and the young alike. Some parks and gardens
in Bangkok come alive during the weekends when the families file in with picnic
baskets looking forward to having a gala time ahead.
