Nong Prajak Public Park – this park located around the pond in the city of Udon Thani. The pond was created before the foundation of the city itself. At first it was called Nong Na Klue (rates salt water), but was renamed in honor of Major General Royal Highness Prince Prachak sin Lapakhom, the founder of the city of Udon Thani.

In 1987 the municipality of the city created a park around the lake in honor of the 50th anniversary of King Rama IX.

A small garden, which is part of the park, filled with a variety of ornamental trees, shrubs and flowers. Here, a bridge that connects the mainland to the island. Also, there is a fountain, a clock tower and a playground. The park serves as a place recreation and exercise to the public.

Nong Prajak Public Park UdonThani

A nice place to spend a few hours or have a picnic. Nicely landscaped with plenty of shady places to sit or stroll on the small island. Sizeable children’s playground, toilets, even a tai chi area. There’s a bike path that rings the park, not sure of the overall length, maybe around 3 km. Across the road along the east side of the park, there are many local restaurants (at the north end) and a whole row of massage shops (at the south end). Prices at these massage shops are lower than those near Central Plaza, so if you’re on a budget you might consider walking over to this part of town. All together, this park is absolutely worth a visit for a relaxing morning or afternoon outing.
