12 Amazing Tourist Attractions in Pattaya.
Thailand’s famous beach resort town of Pattaya has developed a colourful reputation over the years.
Located less than 200 kilometres from Thailand’s capital city of Bangkok, is a convenient place to enjoy the sun, sand, and sea.
In this video we share with you 12 Amazing Tourist Destinations in Pattaya, Thailand.
Pattaya has drawn tourists and expats from all over the world ever since US soldiers “discovered” the once-sleepy getaway destination during the Vietnam War.
Since then, Pattaya’s profile has steadily increased, and it is now one of the most popular beach destinations in Southeast Asia.
In recent years, the government has made efforts to attract families to Pattaya, and you’ll find a host of kid-friendly attractions, like water parks and an aquarium.
Still, it remains more of an adult’s destination, especially the area along Walking Street, the main entertainment hub in town.
If you are traveling with the family or are seeking a more subdued location, check out Jomtien Beach or Naklua.
These areas are still touristy, but quieter than the bustling centre of town.
1. Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Garden.
The sprawling park at Nong Nooch Village offers a variety of activities for all the family.
Walkways wind among colourful themed gardens, including a topiary garden, 17th-century French garden, European Renaissance garden, and species-specific gardens featuring plants like tropical palms, succulents, and bonsai.
The magnificent orchid garden will awaken the inner horticulturist in anyone.
Live shows at the Thai Cultural Hall add to the line-up with performances of traditional Thai dancing, sword-fighting, Thai kickboxing, and an elephant show of dubious ethical quality.
You can rent a bicycle to explore the different areas of the park, and door-to-door transportation is available.
2. Jomtien Beach.
Stretching for six kilometres, Jomtien Beach is a welcome escape from the bustle of the main city four kilometres away.
You can sunbathe along its golden shores or take refuge in shade provided by trees at the beach’s edge.
Water lovers can enjoy all kinds of activities, including jet-skiing, kitesurfing, parasailing, and windsurfing.
When you need refreshment, you’ll find plenty of restaurants and cafes along the beach serving local fare and fresh seafood.
Right nearby, family-friendly Cartoon Network Amazone is an action-packed water park replete with spiralling slides, sprawling pools, splashing fountains, and cartoon-themed rides and characters.
3. Sanctuary of Truth.
Billed as “the magnificence of heaven recreated on Earth,” this massive monument, built entirely of wood, is a study in Thai architectural styles.
Every available space is intricately decorated with wooden carvings, and the entire structure was built to pay homage to ancient religions and philosophies. The cycle of life, Utopia, and humanity’s relationship to the universe are some of the themes reflected in the artwork here.
While visiting the sanctuary, you can enjoy Thai cultural shows and Thai boxing, go elephant trekking or horseback riding, or take a ride on a speedboat.
4. Wat Yansangwararam.
As with all of Thailand’s impressive wats (temples), Wat Yansangwararam (known as Wat Yan) offers insight not only into Thai design and architectural traditions, but also into the society’s values.
Surrounded by sprawling palm-studded gardens, the temple was dedicated to King Bhumibol Adulyadej in 1988 to commemorate the 42nd year of his reign. Precious Buddhist relics are housed in the main complex, and on the right-hand side of the path leading to the temple is a lake with impressive Chinese pavilions, filled with antiques and artefacts.
Wat Yansangwararam’s shrine stands on a hill, reached by a flight of 299 steps lined with Naga snakes.
5. Big Buddha (Wat Phra Yai).
This 18-meter-tall golden statue of the Buddha looking peaceful and relaxed perches atop the wooded Pratamnak Hill south of Pattaya.
Climb the steep stairs, adorned on both sides with golden Naga snakes, to see the statue up close and admire the several smaller Buddhas surrounding it. You can also enjoy beautiful views over Pattaya and the bay from the top of the hill.
6. Koh Larn (Coral Island) Day Trip.
