King Rama II Memorial Park

Description:

• A place built in tribute of the great lover of arts, the King Rama II Memorial Park is a culture lover's delight! King Rama II, who was born at this historical site, patronized numerous forms of art and one sees a host of cultural festivals taking place at the park. The park is home to a beautiful botanical garden that is lined with exotic plants and trees: a pleasure to watch while taking a stroll! You will also love to take a tour of the in-house museum that showcases a fascinating range of cultural relics of the Rattanakosin age, the era contemporary to the 'poet-king' : exhibits on the life and standards of living during the 18th century, models of Thai homes, kitchens and much more. Explore the alfresco theater and search for keepsakes at the souvenir store. Call for more details on admission prices and upcoming events.
