This park was developed according to construction of Rama VIII Bridge, crossing over Chao Phraya River to connect Wisutkasat and Arun Amarin Roads and one of King Rama IX's development projects to mitigate traffic issues in Rattanakosin Island area for better releasing of vehicles to Thonburi side.

Also, the site location was interesting in various aspects, such as being Chao Phrya riverside in which beautiful ambiance and views could be seen and being a great viewpoint that many historic places of Rattanakosin Island in opposite side could be sighted.

Moreover, the area could be potentially developed as a near sight-seeing point of transportation along Chao Phraya River and on Rama VIII Bridge.
