To celebrate New Year 2026, Thailand offers free admission to all its national parks, forest parks, botanical gardens, and arboretums.

Free admission applies from December 31, 2025, to January 1, 2026, allowing visitors to enjoy the country's natural attractions without entrance fees during the New Year's holidays.

The Department of National Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP) advises visitors to check for updates on temporary closures of tourist sites in national parks.

Closures may occur for resource rehabilitation, disaster monitoring, or site improvement.

You forget to mention that it's free for Thai citizens only.

Hello Vadis,

Strange, yet the information came from the English Facebook page of the National News Bureau of Thailand.

They should have specified, sorry!
