The most interesting parks to see people celebrating Loy Krathong is probably Nakarapirom Park whhich is by the river, not far from Wat Pho<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There should probably also have something at Asiatic Riverfront although this will be more restrained than in previous years. The night of Loy Krathong is also a good time to have a dinner cruise on Chao Phraya river<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
