Lumpini Park (also sometimes spelled Lumphini) is a bit of serenity in the chaos that is Bangkok.
Seriously, it is one of our favorite places to relax and catch our breath.
There are fun little figures.
There are interesting birds (although the crow and pigeon population has gotten a bit out of control).
But most importantly from my perspective, the park is full of monitor lizards. How cool are these guys?
And, we aren’t quite sure what was going on here, but they seemed content. Afterglow, perhaps?
This is a “must do” in Bangkok, even if only for an hour or so. And, it is free!

She is a voracious reader of young adult dystopian fiction and watches far too much bad tv. She loves pretty much anything to do with zombies, and doesn’t think there is anything weird about setting an alarm at 6 am on a weekend to stumble to a pub to watch her beloved Chelsea boys.

He loves nothing more than a day spent sailing, hopes to do more scuba diving, and rues the day he introduced Lisa to football (i.e., soccer).
