About
Quick facts: A wide green expanse wraps around a calm lake where locals stroll, practice tai chi, and feed koi at the water's edge. Vendors along the main path sell grilled sticky rice and ripe fruit, sending sweet, smoky aromas through the trees and adding a lively, everyday vibe.
Highlights: Lanterns strung across a low wooden bridge glow amber after sunset, casting trembling reflections on the pond while families float tiny paper boats scented with jasmine. A quirky local ritual has people folding a single square of paper, writing a short wish in Thai, then tucking it beneath bench lights, with hundreds of small notes collected after festival weekends.
Insider tips
- Wear light breathable clothing and comfortable shoes for uneven paths.
- Bring mosquito repellent and sun protection, especially by the pond at dusk.
- Head to the lotus-covered pond at sunrise or golden hour for the best photos.
- Visit on weekday mornings to avoid weekend family crowds and markets.
