“A large public park shaded by big trees with a variety of functional areas.”
Somdet Phra Srinagarindra Park Trang is part of a nationwide project to establish public parks in many provinces to honor the benevolence of Her Royal Highness Somdet Phra Srinagarindra (Somdet Ya). This large park is well-maintained, with most of the area consisting of tropical moist forest that is rich in biodiversity, particularly century-old trees, creating a cool and shady atmosphere throughout the day.
The park is divided into functional areas, including:
-
Exercise paths: Jogging and cycling tracks with scenic views of ponds and tree lines
-
Sports fields: Basketball courts, takraw courts, and spaces for aerobics
-
Plant pavilion: Showcasing various plants for learning and education
-
Activity and relaxation areas: Numerous pavilions and seating areas for visitors to relax or enjoy activities with family
Thus, Somdet Phra Srinagarindra Park is not only a green space but also a center that promotes health and quality of life for the people of Trang.
