This spacious park on the grounds of the College of Agriculture and Technology is perfect for strolling and relaxing in the shade. There are small tables and stone benches, bamboo huts, and play areas for children. The park, bisected by two rivers, is a beautiful spot nestled within a lush forest. The small zoo is home to many birds and deer, as well as bears, hippos, monkeys, tortoises, wild boars, and much more. In short: a wonderful place to spend an afternoon with the family. Our favorite spot in Si Saket.

There is no administrative fee for entering the park. Entry to the zoo costs 15 baht for adults and 10 baht for children.

The park is located just outside the center and can be reached from the entrance of the College of Agriculture and Technology after a short walk of about a mile. We therefore recommend hiring a samlaw (driver) and either negotiating with him to wait for you, or – if not – walking back a short distance to the main road until you can catch another rickshaw.
