Best places: City parks in Thailand

Vast, tree-filled park with a lake offering a long loop for biking & running, plus tennis courts.

Jogging & cycling trails around a large, tree-lined lake, plus simple cafes & food stalls.

Designed to absorb flooding, this peaceful, modern park has cascading ponds & sloped walkways.

👍 Pretty nice park with a lake. It seems pretty well maintained, but the downside is there is nothing around. I don’t think it is worth coming unless there is some events happening here.

👍👍 Great running track! 1.5 km for outer loop.

Central urban park featuring manicured lawns, playgrounds & an artificial lake with boat rentals.

A running & biking path encircles a lake with boats, fish & turtles in this serene, scenic park.

Scenic lake park with trails, a BMX track, exercise equipment & giant inflatable ducks on the water.

Sizable park with a contemporary playground, picnic areas, shade trees & water features.

This 4.5-hectare green space offers landscaped lakeside grounds, modern sculptures & outdoor events.

Verdant recreational space with broad, tree-lined jogging & cycling paths, flower beds & a big pond.

Picnic areas dot this tranquil botanical garden with lawns, walking paths, fountains & ponds.

😐 Nice public park located in the middle of the town surrounded with many cafes, restaurants and hospital. The park quite large and can be able to enter from many directions. Some parts were under construction. Overall quite pleasant. Good place for relax, exercise and hangout.

Central square with a soaring gold pillar & a temple, plus flower gardens & nearby night market.

Downtown green space with a jogging track, ponds, gardens & a playground, plus exercise classes.

👍👍 The running area is still not very successful.

👍👍 The best free recreational facility I've seen in Thailand. Three types of football fields, including the central grass pitch, flanked by two footsol courts and a netted artificial turf. As far as I know, Bangkok doesn't have this. Wonderful experience!

👍👍 Very good food, drinks & cakes!!!! Staff is super friendly & professional, we love coming here time after time.

👍 Good running and biking tracks (~ 2.4 I km/lap) . You are not allowed to bring your dog in the park. That’s one reason I only visit occasionally.

👍👍 Good park, but some parts of kids’ playground are broken. Better than anything in Pattaya anyway.
