Time Out says

What is it? A sprawling, serene park in Nakhon Pathom, just west of Bangkok, known for its peaceful walking paths, manicured gardens and a towering 15-metre standing Buddha statue at its centre.

Why go? If you’re looking for a peaceful escape that most tourists haven’t discovered, this massive park is a true local go-to. It’s where residents from the city’s quieter western neighbourhoods come to cycle, jog or simply unwind under the trees. With wide-open lawns, quiet ponds and tucked-away corners perfect for meditation, it’s the kind of place where you’ll see families picnicking, monks on their morning walks and regulars who treat it like their own green sanctuary.

Time Out tip: The park is especially beautiful in the early morning or late afternoon. At sunset, the towering Buddha statue is often silhouetted against a soft ‘vanilla sky’ that makes the scene feel almost surreal.
