As one of the biggest parks in Bangkok, Rod Fai Park is probably the best place for those times when you’ve had too much of the urban jungle. It certainly feels a hundred miles away from bustling downtown, particularly on quieter weekdays. Birds, lizards, turtles and hundreds of grand old trees make a beautiful backdrop to a leisurely cycle around the 2 km bitumen cycle track.
