Benjakitti Park is located in the heart of Bangkok city amongst Sukhumvit's high rise hotels and office blocks, which makes it very convenient for people to visit this park in the early morning either for a walk or a jog before or after work.

At this time of the year from early March to late April the Bougainville flower comes to life and blooms all around the lake side of the park in many different colors making the park look like a gorgeous paradise.
