Singha Park

Singha Park is a large landscaped farm and leisure destination southwest of Chiang Rai. Tea plantations, seasonal flower displays, open lawns and recreation areas spread across rolling countryside, making it a substantial outdoor stop rather than a small garden beside the road.

The familiar golden Singha lion near the entrance is an easy photo stop, but the wider park offers a different experience. Allow time for a farm tour, a meal or an activity if you want to see beyond the entrance lawn and appreciate the scale of the property.

Tea Fields, Gardens and the Farm Landscape

The park developed from agricultural land associated with Boon Rawd, the company behind Singha. Tea and other crops remain part of its identity, alongside visitor gardens and leisure facilities. The views combine planted slopes, water and distant hills, with different flowers and crops coming into season throughout the year.

A visit is especially rewarding when you slow down at the designated viewpoints rather than trying to walk across every part of the estate. Tea rows make attractive photographic patterns, while seasonal displays add colour along the visitor route. Keep to public areas and do not enter working plantations without permission.

The entrance lion and lawns suit a brief visit, but they do not represent the entire farm-tour circuit. Decide whether you want a quick landmark stop or a more complete visit before arranging a driver, as the two require quite different amounts of time.

Exploring the Park

Taking the Farm Tour

The farm tour uses park transport to reach areas that would be inconvenient to cover on foot. It links scenic stops and visitor attractions, giving a useful introduction to the gardens and plantations without needing to navigate the estate independently.

Budget around 150 baht per person for the farm tour and check the current fare, child arrangements, route and next departure at the ticket counter. Tours have their own operating window within the wider park day, so arrive early enough to join a suitable departure rather than assuming the final tour leaves at closing time.

Animal-viewing areas have included giraffes and zebras. Ask which stops are operating that day and use only feed supplied or approved by staff if feeding is offered. Food for animals and other extras should not be assumed to be included in the tour fare.

Cycling and Adventure Activities

Cycling is another way to enjoy the estate, with hire arrangements and permitted routes managed by the recreation area. Choose an option that suits the weather and your fitness, and ask where you may ride before setting off. A bicycle does not give unrestricted access to every working part of the farm.

Zipline and other adventure activities add a more active element to the visit. Check current availability, prices and height, weight or age requirements with the activity team. Weather can affect operations, so keep a garden or dining alternative in mind if an activity cannot run.

Restaurants, Cafes and Farm Products

Bhu Bhirom Restaurant combines dining with views over the estate, while Barn House Pizzeria and Trattoria offers an Italian-style alternative. Cafes and refreshment stops can make a visit more comfortable, particularly when you have spent time in the sun.

Individual venues follow their own service hours and booking arrangements. For a special meal or group visit, contact the restaurant in advance; park entry hours do not guarantee that a particular kitchen or table will be available.

Shops offer tea and other products associated with the park. Buying tea can provide a useful connection with the plantations you have seen, but ask about the blend and preparation rather than assuming every packet is the same. Purchases, meals and drinks are separate from ordinary entry.

Entry, Opening Hours and Seasonal Events

General park visiting hours are 9am to 6pm daily. Ordinary entry is free, while farm tours, equipment hire, adventure activities and overnight facilities carry separate charges. Check the services you want to use when planning the day’s budget.

The park also hosts festivals and special events, including balloon-related celebrations. These are scheduled occasions rather than daily attractions. Event access, tickets and traffic arrangements can differ from an ordinary park visit, so use the specific event programme when travelling for a festival.

Getting to Singha Park from Chiang Rai

The park is at 99 Moo 1 in Mae Kon, along the Den Ha-Dong Mada road, Highway 1211. It is southwest of central Chiang Rai; a car journey is commonly around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the starting point and traffic.

A private driver, taxi or app-based car is practical for visitors staying in the city. If you are being dropped off, agree a return pickup or onward journey, as a large rural attraction is less convenient for finding transport spontaneously than a central shopping street.

Wat Rong Khun, the White Temple, is roughly six kilometres away and can be combined with the park by car. Give each attraction its own visiting time and tickets, and do not assume a general Chiang Rai tour includes a farm tour or adventure activity.

Drivers should use the visitor entrance and follow signs to the parking and reception areas. Once there, ask which areas can be reached by your chosen transport and which require the park’s own tour or activity arrangements.

Planning a Comfortable Visit

Allow around two to four hours for selected park areas, a tour and refreshments, or longer when adding activities and a sit-down meal. A short stop at the entrance lion can take much less time, but will leave most of the estate unexplored.

Bring sun protection, drinking water and comfortable shoes. Early in the day is often easier for outdoor activity, while rain and heat can change how much walking or cycling feels comfortable. The broad landscape includes exposed areas as well as shelter.

Visitors with limited mobility should ask about boarding tour vehicles and reaching the particular stops they want to see. Using park transport can reduce walking, but individual gardens, activity areas and restaurants may have different access conditions.

Singha Park FAQs

Is Singha Park free to enter?
Ordinary entry is free. Farm tours, bicycle or other equipment hire, adventure activities, meals and overnight facilities are separately priced, so the cost depends on what you choose to do.

How much is the farm tour?
Allow around 150 baht per person and confirm the current fare and child conditions at the counter. Ask about the day’s route and departures before paying, especially if you have limited time.

Can you explore the whole park on foot?
The estate is large, and walking between distant attractions can be impractical in the heat. A farm tour or permitted cycling option helps you see more, while a brief entrance visit focuses mainly on the lion and nearby lawns.

Are balloons available every day?
Balloon-related celebrations are scheduled events, rather than a guaranteed daily activity. Check the particular programme if balloons are your main reason for travelling to the park.

Can you combine Singha Park with the White Temple?
Yes. Wat Rong Khun is roughly six kilometres away, making a combined car outing practical. Allow separate time for each stop and check exactly which entry fees and activities a booked tour includes.

How long should you spend here?
Two to four hours is a useful allowance for selected areas, a farm tour and refreshments. Add time for adventure activities or a restaurant meal; a quick photograph at the entrance requires much less.

What are the opening hours?
General visiting hours are 9am to 6pm daily. Tours, recreation services and restaurants can have different schedules, so check the particular service before arriving late in the day.
