It was officially opened in 2004 (on land formally owned by the Tobacco Authority of Thailand) to honor the 72nd birthday of Queen Sirikit. Before that, it had been in operation since 1992, the year the Queen turned 60 (5th cycle), hence the name “Bejakitti” (5 cycles). The name “Benjakitti” was given by Queen Sirikit during the opening. Benjakitti Park has a landmark symbol called “Pathumthani” near the pond.^[3] Benjakitti Park was developed from Tobacco pond area 200×800 meters, built by digging and reclamation. This park was part of the project replacement area from resolutions in the government of Prime Minister Anand Panyarachun.

Between 1 and 9 December 2014, this park was used for performing theater and a spectacular technique to commemorate the King “The Phra Mahathat The Phenomenal Life Show” by the stage in the middle of the pond over 100 meters which is the longest water stage in the country. It includes a central boating lake, an outdoor exercise area, a cycling track and a path that is used by walkers and joggers; bicycles and boats can be hired in the park.
