4 weeks agoI brought myself to run from home, located on street 197 across from BKK, to Wat Butom garden to participate in “Viksit Bharat Run 2025”, which is a Sunday challenge to boost my motivation to move on 🏃♀️

7 months agoIn the park theres the Cambodia–Vietnam Friendship Monument, is a large concrete monument commemorating alliance between Vietnam and Cambodia. It features heroic statues of Vietnamese and Cambodian soldiers in the "Socialist realist" style, together with a woman and a baby representing Cambodian civilians.

a year agoClean, large square. Public toilets available for a fee. Lots of fun going on in the evening. People dance and play games. The very bad air is very stressful, though.
