Pattaya guide
Pattaya is more of an activity city than a sightseeing destination, since it’s a fairly modern place built around tourism and enjoyment. However, with this has arrived all sorts of themed parks and attractions. What it lacks in exotic temples and sights it makes up for with family amusement parks, off-shore islands and beaches, or simply people watching at the entertainment venues.
There are a number of remarkable sights or vistas to satisfy your shutter, such a the Sanctuary of Truth, and the view point on the bluff at the southern end of Pattaya bay. The beaches aren’t particularly remarkable, but if you’ve just got off the plane from cold Europe you’ll find them quite satisfying. Offshore islands like Koh Larn have white sandy beaches and clear water.
The Walking Street is a night time centre of activity, and together with the lanes off Pattaya Beach road, you’ll have plenty to look at in the form of scantily clad ladies yelling ‘hello you’re welcome’ at passer-bys. There’s also a beachfront promenade linking the two, good for an evening stroll.
Within a daytrip of Pattaya are other seaside towns, several attractions in the form of zoos, tropical gardens, Elephant camps and mini replica displays, great for the kids.
