Father's Day is coming again, even though today is Tuesday, which means many people may not have a long break. However, you can still take your dad on a trip for just one day. Today, ThailandCONNEX recommends a one-day complete travel program that will surely leave a lasting impression after the trip.
In the morning, the weather is pleasant, and the sun is not too strong yet. Invite your dad to take a leisurely stroll at Rama IX Park. You can walk around or have a picnic. If your dad enjoys exercising, you can go paddle boating for some fun. Additionally, the park hosts a beautiful flower and plant exhibition, along with traditional markets, giving you a chance to experience the local culture. This event runs from December 1st to December 10th.
After a relaxing break, take your dad to the city to pay respects to the Buddha for blessings and tranquility. If Wat Phra Kaew is crowded, consider visiting Wat Suthat Thepwararam, where you can enjoy a peaceful atmosphere. After paying respects, take a stroll to admire the various Buddha statues around the temple grounds. If you time it right, you might even catch a sermon or a philosophical discussion by the monks.
End the day with an evening breeze, scenic views, and delicious food while cruising along the Chao Phraya River. Enjoy the beauty of the architecture on both sides of the river and the comfortable open deck of the boat. Indulge in a buffet dinner on the boat with continuous boat rides throughout the evening. Moreover, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) has organized a spectacular light and sound show called "Vijit Chao Phraya" at key landmarks along the Chao Phraya River throughout December, providing a unique and memorable experience for you and your dad.
Wishing all dads strength, good health, and happy travels on Father's Day!"
