The time passes and it's already time to board our VIP bus to Bangkok. The Thai VIP bus system is really good and cheap! 220 Volt socket, spacious seat, massaging and reclining via electric controls, leg support, snack delivered by an on-board hostess without forgetting a stop at the Food court included in the price. All this for only 650 Thai baht.
Having 1 day to spend in Bangkok before our flight back to Phuket I booked us a small unpretentious hotel. It's Villa Cha-Cha Phraathit with a triple room (1 queen bed and 1 single bed) for 895 Thai baht.
I chose this hotel because it's located 2 minutes from the banks of the river and it's right next to a small park that seems interesting to visit.
After a good night's sleep in a very comfortable bed and an awakening at dawn, I decided on the one hand to have a good coffee at 7Eleven, 20 meters from the hotel and then to go to this interesting park, thus enjoying the morning colors of the sun.
When I arrived at the park I was immediately attracted to the riverbank, hearing the boats passing by so early in the morning.
After a good time of contemplation it's time to enjoy the park a little, starting with the Santichai Prakan Pavilion.
The Santichai Prakan Pavillion was built during the reign of King Rama I (20 March 1737 – 7 September 1809). The park was built in 1999 on the 72th anniversary of King Rama IX.
A beautiful harmony emerges from the place, a symbiosis between the park, the pavilion and the modern environment of the condominiums.
I quickly understand that the place is very popular with joggers, yoga enthusiasts and others because of their numbers so early in the morning!
The vegetation is not missing, with magnificent flowers that enhance the park with their beauty.
