This park was built to honor King Rama II and is run by a
royally-supported foundation. King Rama II was awarded the
status of Person of the World by UNESCO for his contributions to
the arts and culture of Thailand, and his achievements are
celebrated in this compound. In addition, the King Rama II
Museum, composed of four buildings, houses artifacts from the
early Rattanakosin era, King Rama II’s household furniture, and
showcases the lives of Thais during the king’s reign.
Nearby, there is an open theater and a botanical garden where
plants cited in Thai literature are cultivated. A shop offers
local products and young saplings for those wishing to grow the
plants at home.
