Chao Phraya Sky Park

Why it is worth the detour

Bangkok turned the abandoned structure of an unrealized elevated railway into a pedestrian park spanning the Chao Phraya.

Chao Phraya Sky Park is an elevated linear park in Bangkok, offering a unique pedestrian experience with scenic views of the Chao Phraya River. It is the first sky park in Southeast Asia, transforming an abandoned railway viaduct into a vibrant green space.
