Description: |

Somdet Phra Srinagarindra Park, Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya is
located on Uthong Road within the area of the Ayutthaya
Historical Park in the western part of Ko Mueang, or the City
Island. Open to the public in 1985, it is the second park built
to celebrate Princess Srinagarindra’s 80th birthday.
Its
large area is left in the original condition as much as possible
in case of future archaeological excavations which are possible
throughout the area of the Ayutthaya Historical Park. Serving as
a public park, it is an area where local residents can relax and
do exercises. A number of large trees can be found throughout
the park, some of which are the kinds of trees mentioned in
literature. This allows visitors to see and gain knowledge about
those plants. The park also has a Thai-style pavilion and ruins
from ancient Ayutthaya. Moreover, there is a plan to develop
some parts of the park into a herbal park.
The park’s
most prominent point is the monument of Princess Srinagarindra
which was officially opened in 2000 by Princess Chulabhorn
Walailak, as representative of His Majesty King Bhumibol
Adulyadej.
To get to the park from Bangkok, Once you are
entering the city centre, cross King Naresuan the Great Bridge
and drive as far as Phra Nakhon Si Ayutthaya Rajabhat
University. You will see a T-intersection ahead where you have
to turn left. Drive along the street until you reach another
T-intersection. Turn right, go straight and drive past the
provincial hospital. Not far from the hospital, you will see the
park on your right side. |
