people of Si Sa Ket and the Ministry of Education to celebrate the 60th birthday anniversary of H.R.H. The
Princess Mother. Approximately 237 rai (379,200 sq. meters) of the Si Sa Ket Agricultural College was used
for the park which is a natural forest area and the only forest in Thailand that has a dense concentration of
Lamduan flowers, giving the forest a pleasant aroma from February to April. The Lamduan flower is a plant
of historical significance for Si Sa Ket as it gave the city its old name of "Si Nakhon Lamduan". When they
blossom as the same time, he forest turns soft yellow and the Lamduan leaves impart a sweet smell that lasts
for months. Thus, the Lamduan flower is regarded as the provincial flower if Si Sa Ket.
