The best places to hang out with Friends. Colourful and Vibing all night. If you are used to this environment you would love this place. It was a fun filled birthday party and I loved it🤩🥳 Don’t miss the CHILLED COCONUT WATER and STREET FOODS which is available all night

Even just walking this street is a fun experience, but some of the guys get right in your face trying to get you to go into their bars. Understandably, girls standing outside at several bars didn’t like the recording or picture taking from main street.

Its new for us but it worth a try..This place is altogether a different experience. Based on need there are multiple options.You will get almost everything here :) .

I was there on 2nd April. Business is opened 20%. Not much street food. Only bars are try to survive.

nice place for walk,get chance to see variety type of local food n cultural activities which attacks tourist.

This place is very lively at night, after 6 pm. Every day of the week. Although weekends are best! There is a lot to do here. There are carnival like games. There are bb gun game, throw the ball and dunk people. There are many food stalls. And clubs. Lots of bars. The beach is just a few steps away. It's an awesome place to have a drink. There are massage places as well. Spending the weekend here is a must!

Hot n happening place. If u want nightlife thn come here. Loud music, restaurant, pub, bar, disco, drinks, sisha, food, strip dance, hot chicks, Russian grlz everything available here. N yes it's safe.

Great place great night life, worth a walk down and see what's happening can be fairly busy depending on the time you go.

Walk street was awesome. Plenty to do and see. Good and drink was a little on the pricey side. Very much an adults playground, but some of the venues were very pushy and were very happy to relieve you of all your cash and not give you much entertainment for it.

Amazing night life vibe. Lots of restaurants bars gogo clubs, etc. Best place to hangout

If you wanna take a glimpse of Pattaya night life this walking street is a perfect spot. You can see around

A must watch experience.. That atmosphere 🤩🤩, clubs, Parties, dance, full on entertainment, restaurants, street foods.. I am sure once you visit this, you will miss this vibes.

Its a amazing place and no one can idea what it is if he or she don’t visit it. For entertainment everything is there you need to just take it and enjoy. No one will bother you. Just reminds you pataya never sleeps at night.

This time there is nothing much as the place was shut for 3 years …. But must visit to explore new things 😅🤣and the lady in my picture is the same lady who did my hair in 2019

Vibrant nightlife, diverse entertainment, bustling crowds - Pattaya Walking Street offers an electrifying experience for those seeking lively adventures.

Very beautiful and exciting place of the world. Many dance bars and clubs are there. Nude shows are also there. Russian bars are very nice. Indian dance clubs are also there especially Jennath Club. Very taste food stuff are available there. It is a must visit place. You may spend around four hours there. Take care not to go for drugs. If you like this review, please like and comment. Thank you.

Great destination at New years & Christmas

Great place to have a look around Pattaya night life. Suggest not to spend much at this place.

Gorgeous scenery. Lots and lots of good spots for photo taking. Walk in price is 500 bath, but it can go down to 365 baht if you booked online. Please be advised that you are required to wear something 'respectful', meaning you need to wear something of knees length. If the staff deemed your outfit to be inappropriate, then they have the option for you to buy or rent for (they'll return the deposit when you're done) skirts or oversized trousers of 200baht for you to wear on your duration of your visit. This place offers tour guide services for various languages: Thai, English, Chinese and Russian. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, but I'd say she was rushing the tour a little bit. Overall quite a pleasant experience.

Wonderful site. The location is fantastic. If you like an elephant ride, you can get one for 400B about USD 11 per person. The ticket comes with a tour guide. I stay around afterward to get photos and take a closer look. Amazing work and spectacular vistas. Well worth a visit. Probably millions of hours of craftsmanship were involved in constructing this temple.

The Sanctuary of Truth is an absolute must-visit destination in Pattaya. This magnificent museum is entirely constructed from wood, showcasing remarkable craftsmanship. The sheer size of the museum is awe-inspiring, leaving visitors with a sense of wonder. The ideal time to explore the museum is in the morning when the ambiance is tranquil and inviting. Additionally, for those seeking a unique experience, an elephant ride is available near the temple, offering a captivating journey around the premises, albeit at a relatively high cost. Inside the temple, you'll discover a refreshment store as well

The level of intricacy and value of cultural art of this museum is remarkable! I’ve never seen something so breathtaking and original. The tour guide was super informative in explaining every corner and philosophy of each sculpture here, although it was quite short, but definitely I learn a lot about the history of this temple. The wood carving is updated regularly and crafted with precision with their sculptor and adds the beauty of this site. Worth to visit again for my second time!

The Sanctuary of Truth is a true masterpiece that left me in awe. The intricately carved woodwork and the stunning architecture are a testament to human craftsmanship. This place is a sanctuary for the soul, providing a sense of tranquility and wonder. A must-visit for anyone seeking a unique and spiritual experience. I was captivated from the moment I stepped in, and I can’t recommend it enough. A gem that truly deserves all 5 stars.

Highly recommend…Amazing place! The art was astounding. Visited midday and it wasn’t too hot. The guides were very knowledgeable. My only advice to the guides would be to slow down when talking/walking. It was a speedy tour. After the tour make sure to order a coconut smoothie! Very good!

Absolutely stunning, gorgeous museum that tells you about 7 truths of life. This giant structure is completely built by wood. Throughout the tour. you will gain a lot of knowledge, be it about museum, or the parts/type of wood used to construct it, the meaning of 7 truths of life and so on. The best part is you visit this place to see something beautiful but in return you not only happen to see Thai masterpiece and craftsmanship but also gain enormous knowledge! I visited this place with help of a tour guide. If you wanted to visit in person it is 500 baht/person. Also, don't forget to dress appropriately. Per culture, the knees and shoulders should be covered or you can also borrow appropriate clothing for deposit of 200 baht. The deposit will be returned after you return the fabric. You also have multiple tours based on the language preference and the tour guides are simply amazing in their ability to communicate and provide context of each parts of the museum. In my opinion, it’s more of a temple than a museum. Highly recommend and must visit if you are in Pattaya!

There are so many little places within the structure that you can sit and reflect, sort of search your own truths. There are tons of tourists, and a lot of them don't abide by the rules because a picture is more important than the history and the building structure. I started off with the tour lady and then took a gap and went off on my own. There is a lot of construction taking place as it is a wood structure that requires constant fixing. It's beautiful and breathtaking. Every structure inside comes with a meaning, a description of why it's there and what it stands for. I read every single one. You need about 2 - 3 hours to go through the whole structure. Don't bother with the restaurant and food outside the building. it's a tourist trap and expensive. Just outside the gates are plenty of places that sell juice, water and beer, etc, for half the price. You will wait for your turn and it's language based. They are always on time which is good, especially in the blistering heat

A great experience. The structure is done using ancient Thai construction techniques which means not nails or bolts. Several different types of wood joints have been utilized in the construction process. The tour guide was excellent and spoke great English. All in all it was a great experience and the restaurant was also pretty good as well.

One of the stunning and spectacular temples. Fully wood carved by artisans. The amount of work done is incredible and the key quotes and messages inside the temple are quite motivating and philosophical. Also feeding the goats, deer, rabbits and sheep was really soothing. Come during the evening time, you get beautiful sunset to take photo shoots. Please do note you have to pay 500 Baht for tickets to visit the temple. But worth it !

A very beautiful museum and well worth a visit. The museum is made purely with wood. The carvings are intricate and real skillfulness to build it. Although it's called the sanctuary of truth, but I am not sure about the elephant rides on the premises. I have been reassured the elephants are well cared for. There are guided tours in different languages at specific times.

Amazing, so beautiful, and such powerful precepts. Highly recommend. Take a photo of every plaque in the temple because the sayings and meanings of each are particularly beautiful and they are not in the brochure or leaflet. And I can't find the book to buy anywhere outside of the gift shop

A must visit place at Pattaya. Fantastic place to go through. I wasn't thought this would be mesmerizing. This is a museum, that showcases truth of life. The entire museum is made of wood, that uses only wood-lock joints, instead of nails. You will get a guide there, in English, Thai, Chinese or Russian, which is included in the ticket price. There's a refreshment store inside the museum premises. I would recommend, visit this place during the early morning session or in the evening. At noon there's harsh sunlight and heat.

Amazing place! The art was astounding. Visited midday and it wasn’t too hot. The guides were very knowledgeable. My only advice to the guides would be to slow down when talking/walking. It was a speedy tour. After the tour make sure to order a coconut smoothie! Very good!

1. They take people in batches. 2. Every batch has a guide who speaks the language (for me personally English). 3. They had a small version of a real sanctuary explaining there was no nail used 4. There were workers scalping the real wooden thing swhich is used in the sanctuary both inside and out. 5. The map was also given in our preferred language.

Sanctuary of Truth is a wooden giant structure filled with best scripture work all around and conveys the ways of living for human being. It does contains some stories of the Indian epic Ramayan, also earthly god representations and the tour guide helps us to understand the 6 truths of life. Not only that they will help us identify the owner of the museum intention of the structures why they are such way and it’s an incredible experience, must visit and if you love sculptures and love to explore epics, you would love to spend more time to understand them. They also show how this huge structure built without even using nails.. yes it’s amazing right .. visit to know more…

Date of visit: Sun 14 Jan 2024 Time : 10 am This is probably the grandest museum in this part of the country. Entrance fee is 500 baht. Everything is run smoothly. Organized tours are scheduled by language : Thai, English, Mandarin, Russian. We waited our turn to follow the English tour. The tour lasted for about an hour. Everything here is about good and evil and life and death and about Buddhism. Sculptures are beautiful and in wood. It’s a beautiful monument !

One of the best places I've visited here in Thailand. Good scenery, good air, nice view, and also you can check the history of this place and learn while visiting it. I suggest that you must also visit this place if your here. And yeah. Don't forget that you need a ticket if you want to enter the museum. For the museum tour don't worry there are different languages they offer when you join the tour

Entrance is 500 Baht and the activities are a separate payment. They accept cashless payments too. I’ve uploaded their prices for everyone’s reference. However, I forgot to take a picture on the time schedule per nationality for tour purposes. They also have a restaurant inside with reasonable prices. I think it took us almost 3 hours for taking photos, eating and etc. it was pretty humid when we went despite the cloudy weather. I just think that their activity prices are too high. For instance, riding an elephant is 400 Baht and you’ll be riding it for 10 minutes only. So it’s not a reasonable price in my opinion. So instead, just bought a basket of bananas for 100 Baht to feed the elephants, much better!

Outstandingly beautiful. Words can not do the atmosphere of this place justice. Very charged with a feel good factor. Strange but true it has a way of making you reflect on your own self beliefs. And how you conduct yourself in this world. Just an awesome place to reflect. The fact its made of hand carved wood only. And the amount of time it's taken to do is testament to the work ethic of the thai people who do it.

Mesmerizing temple! It’s interesting that the tour started with safety briefing and move down to the workshop area. Make sure to ask for the different timing for guided tour. They have tour guides in Chinese, English and Russian. I’ve met a co-Filipino working as a tour guide and offered to take photo of us in the most well photographed part of the museum. Fantastic visit, indeed!

This is an architectural masterpiece in Thailand. This is a must visit place at least once in a lifetime. The entire museum is carved out of wood and the construction is going on for over 40 years and still counting. One can see the sculptors working on further while the museum is open to pubilc

The best place to enter is on the 6.30 PM one. The evening entry price is 700 bath (normally 500 bath). The extra 200 bath is 100% worth as it looks amazing when all the lights are one. The temple is extremely good, and you'll feel the energy. Inside, you'll get to learn (you'll have an English speaking guide), who will explain all about it. The temple has four parts and they focused on four gods (earth, water, wind, fire), and sculpted the history of how they maintain peace. You should go there with atleast 1 hour and 30 minutes to see through it all. If you love history and complex structure, this is an experience which is a must for you, You will for sure say wow, and will be mesmerized by the art.

Must visit if you are in pattaya. Very peaceful place. The detail of the carvings is insane. The work there is never ending. They work on many pieces and assemble them and change out old panels also. The carving designs and stories are derived from many other countries as well. There is tour guide on time slots. Listen to the guide, there is a lot of time to take photos after that.

One of the greatest architectural masterpieces I've seen. The sanctuary of truth is an awe-inspiring work of art that truly celebrates Thailand's diversity of cultural heritage and religious influences. It shows the nation promotes its traditional values of kindness and virtue with far more than simple lip service. Here Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism/Taoism, and even Islam and Sikhism are given equal respect, along with reminders of both the blessings we receive and the duties we owe to our family and society. Simply being inside this place makes me want to be a better person. Guided tours in many languages come with the ticket, definitely take advantage of it to understand the deep meanings behind the temple museum's many murals and sculptures.

This is an amazing place that deserves 5 stars. My rating reflects the surrounding “attractions” that spoil it. The elephant and horse riding should be stopped immediately. Website and leaflet claim it to be “ethical” but the elephants are being chained by their legs and guided using metal poking sticks. The tourists ride it around in the heat of the sun. It stands in in big conflict with the message of peace and sustainability being commemorated in the museum. Other downside are the tours. There is so much to be told about this amazing place, yet the guides have trouble reaching their guests as they have to compete with other guides and the workers on site. I would have loved an audio guide to which you can listen in peace and on your own, sadly there is no such option. Also no smaller private tours are being offered. The complex message of the creator of this place is not coming across and reaching its audience in conditions like that, despite the great guides doing their best. As an English speaking person there is also no possibility to access the museum before 9:10 am, which is when the first English tour is starting, even with the site opening at 8 am. It is weird, as after the seemingly mandatory tour you can walk around on your own as much as you like. I would have loved the possibility to see the place at 8 a.m. when it’s still not crowded and then would have joined a tour later in the day.

The Sanctuary of Truth completely exceeded my expectations, it doesn't feel like part of Pattaya at all. The craftsmanship and scale of the building is unbelievable. It's totally worth the entrance fee (100 baht cheaper to buy from online vendors for next day entrance). It was really hot when we visited but there are free umbrellas to borrow. They are quite strict about covering shoulders and legs but knee length shorts are okay for men. You have to wear a hard hat inside the building as there is work going on overhead. The only thing we didn't like were the chains on the elephants.

Amazing Architecture! Its mind blowing how they built it entirely of wood without using a single nail. It's been under construction since 1981 so you can imagine the complexity to get this to it's current state. Also, the different kids of joints using wood is very interesting to learn. A must visit if you're in Pattayya.

This is truly The wonder of this world. That's the only thing that come into my mind when I think about it. All made in wood by hand. The detail that all this sanctuary is made both in and outside make my jaw drop whole this day. Words can't describe the beauty and impression it makes when you're there. Base questions lying at the ground, planets, human behaviours as a pillars, main elements on earth as naves. Impressive. Definitely place to see and touch.

The museum experience is enriching and offers two distinct modes of exploration. Visitors have the option of joining a guided group tour, where a knowledgeable guide provides insightful commentary on the history and significance of the statues and deities showcased. Alternatively, guests may choose to peruse the exhibits at their own pace, a choice that caters to those who prefer a more personal contemplation of the art.Additional activities such as row boating, speed boating, and horseback riding are available, though these incur separate charges beyond the admission fee. Despite its seemingly grand exterior, the museum's size is more modest than anticipated. However, this does not detract from the experience. Remarkably, the structure is primarily constructed of wood, with metal nails employed solely for temporary support.An average visit to the museum lasts approximately 40 minutes, sufficient to appreciate its offerings. Post-tour, guests can enjoy light refreshments like French fries and cold beverages available outside the museum.In summary, the museum presents a well-executed and memorable experience, albeit at a price point that may be considered slightly elevated for the duration and scope of the museum tour.

The Sanctuary of Truth Museum captivated me with its intricate wooden architecture, showcasing a harmonious blend of artistry and spirituality. The attention to detail in every carving left me in awe, reflecting a deep commitment to preserving cultural heritage. The sprawling premises offered a serene escape, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the rich Thai traditions. Knowledgeable guides enhanced the experience, providing insightful narratives about the symbolic significance of each structure. While the admission fee seemed justified, ensuring the site's maintenance and preservation, I found the souvenir prices a bit steep. Overall, a must-visit destination for those seeking cultural enlightenment amidst breathtaking craftsmanship.

A truly majestic wooden structure, what makes it unique is the requirement to wear a construction helmet upon entry. Visitors are initially guided through the construction area to witness the meticulous hand-carving process. Continuous maintenance and carving activities are ongoing, necessitating the use of safety helmets even inside the main hall. The entire building is constructed without the use of any nails; instead, it relies on traditional joinery, tenon-and-mortise, and wooden pegs. This construction method, is remarkably preserved here, presenting a spectacular sight. Visitors also have the option to rent horse-drawn carriages or ride elephants around the building for admiration, priced at 400 NT dollars per person for a single ride or 800 NT dollars for two people on one elephant. The park also features a coffee terrace and a massage area for visitors to take a leisurely break.

This place is part Disney, part Jurassic park and part botanical gardens. Wonderful place to spend an afternoon. It's about 600 acres so plan on spending a good amount of time to see everything. You have different ticket choices that give you different privileges; to see shows, ride the bus, etc, so do some research before you get there. They usually have some kind of specials but be sure to read the fine print. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Parking: It is not crowded. Not too many people during CoVid. Easy access to park in. Place: It is very beautiful, nice, and amazing. I went here before. Some areas were under construction. But now the place is full of life and nature. I will come here again in December when everything is green. If you want to find a garden or somewhere to look at flowers, this is the perfect place, especially for tourists. This place is one of the top 4 gardens in the world. As an American, I will come here every time for my visit. There are millions of trees and flowers to see. For the whole day, it might take 3 to 4 hours to walk and see the whole thing.

What a wonderful place to be at. It's easily one of the most wonderful and beautiful gardens in the world. Beautiful and well thought of gardens and absolutely fantastic dinosaur valley for both young and old. The place is so clean and one can also purchase food and drinks here with a large seating area. My family and I loved every moment of it. Spent a couple of hours here and would have been there longer, but it got too hot and humid to proceed any further. It is certainly worth the visit and would definitely be back here as there's so much more to view and explore. Highly recommended.

Absolutely loved it here. Well deserved top 10 of the world's most beautiful gardens. Spent quite a few hours wandering around jumoi g on and off the tour bus was a great way to really see any particular area without having to pound to many pavements. The cacti garden was just beautiful. Dinosaur valley was great the kids both young and old would love it. The garden centre was very reasonable. The butterfly garden was having a new model added to it but beautiful area all the same. So many different elements to this wonderful place. I will definitely visit again. The man on the ticket gate was particularly memorable. Lovely. Man and staff in the gardens around the whole venue. They do great work.

This garden is shockingly huge and can see owners love for dinosaurs and many other animals life-size figurines dotted all over the landscape. Buy ticket for the 45-min. trolley to get a overview and it makes 2 stops to allow exploring different theme gardens on foot, from cactus, orchid, huge rocks to French. Can hop back to the next trolley. Even 2 hours there only cover few grounds. Plenty of food options and cool air-con. cafes serve cold drinks are a good way to hydrate and rest. Pictures don’t do justice, must see with your own eyes. Adults and kids will equally enjoy it.

Great place to visit. The botanical gardens are nice, and the dinosaur statues are interesting. The other things to do there interacting with elephants and an interesting car museum, and I saw a shooting range there. They also have places to eat. It is worth a visit.

I've never seen more concrete and plastic in a place that is called "garden". First, if you expect to see a botanical garden and maybe learn something about tropical plants, this is definitely the wrong place. What they have done here is basically destroy nature that has been there, cover it up with concrete and then put a lot of plants into pots and decorate everything with plastic animals and dinosaurs. Second, the place is huge, but some areas can only be viewed from the buses (forbidden to walk in there or leave the bus) running around the place, so there is no time to look at the plants closer. I also got no idea why anybody would place a car saloon in a "botanical garden", but there are two of them. Third, there is evident animal cruelty happening in this place. We saw chained up elephants being held as tourist attractions, so that you can take photos or ride on them. A baby elephant was chained to it's mother, to make it walk along and on top of that we saw one staff member pulling the tail of the baby elephant to make it stop. So, if you love elephants definitely do NOT go to this place. There is also an elephant show (which we - for obvious reasons- choose not to look at). The so called "Thai cultural show" was entertaining but very cliched. Don't let yourself be fooled: this is a theme park with a lot of plants and plastic animals but NOT a botanical garden.

The place is clean and maintained very well. We reached the place by 10am so that we don't miss the shows. Thailand traditional show was amazing and we all loved it. I would recommend getting a VIP ticket to occupy a seat towards the centre of the stage. The Elephant show was nice.

This is such a huge place. We set off by watching the show of various cultures. It is a great show. Then we went on for the elephant show. It was fun and entertaining. Then we had some refreshment, a coconut drinks to be exact. Then, we went on the tram that takes us to visit the tropical garden of animals, cacti and many more. We spent about 4 -5 hours here and it was tiring.

Very interesting and unexpected experience. The gardens were very well landscaped with various dinosaurs positioned in the different themed gardens. area is HUGE. Not too crowded. Feels a bit like Jurassic park and did not expect this, looking from the outside Offers a tour on a bus for a fee, which is beneficial for people who can't or don't want to walk much. Has restaurants and food court, though food isn't that great. Provides wheelchair for rent. Plenty of parking space provided.

Beautiful garden. Well maintained. They have excellent shows. Its a good one day thing to do in pattaya. We took a ride/ car to go to all the points. As its too big to walk around its better to take a ride. Not too expensive and worth a try if you are okay with a little walking. There’s cultural show, different countries cultural dancing n all and there’s elephants show.

Beautiful gardens. Tastefully designed, decorated and maintained. Take the bus internally to visit if you want to save time and don’t want to talk this huge place. There’s also an Indian restaurant serving Indian food. Its cheaper to buy a cumulative ticket (entrance, food, bus etc) if you are sure of what u want. The elephant show is splendid. The cultural show is also good. A good tourist attraction

Huge interesting botanical garden. Don’t forget to bring water & get ready to get sweat if you explore this area by foot 🦶. Ticket price 600 bath for tourist. And they also have ticket with bus ( you will use bus to explore the area ). They have many toilets & it was quite clean for female toilet. But my husband n son said for male toilet it was really smelly

Everything is commercialized. Staff is very rude towards the tourists, especially foreigners. Entry ticket is too expensive and do not deserve. Shuttle bus is a big fraud. Before boarding they say, unlimited hop on and hop off. But, after second point itself they do not allow to board further except to the exit gate. I am forced to walk myself with my wife, as the driver thrown away my shuttle bus ticket into a dust bin. There's no staff to guide you or help you. Most of the garden is artificial except one portion, where tourist entry is restricted and allowed to view only from the shuttle bus. Not allowed even to step out of the bus. Thai Cultural Show is good. But, the elephant show was again a big fraud. After collecting a separate entrance ticket for the show, it seems management is interested in commercializing the show, but, not interested in the actual show. During the show, feeding to the elephants, selling the products is a big hinderence to the viewers in watching the show. I don't say it's wrong. But, should be carried out before starting the show or after end of the show. Not during the show. It gives a lot of irritation when someone is obstructing the show continuously. Waste of money. Car museum and collection of Cars in the museum is excellent. Except, car museum all other things are fully commercial. Hope the Management shall make a note of my review and take corrective steps, especially on their Staff behaviour.

Very disappointing to see how they have the elephants... very sad, all day standing, tied at the neck and feet with very short chains, which completely limit their movements. I did not see them well cared for or treated. Their rights were totally violated, I felt that no one cared about them. They make them do tricks so you can take photos and the guys who ride them ask you then for tips. A horror. Focusing now in the gardens are very well maintained, the plant production sector is very nice. The gardens do not have a description or origin of the plants. Something curious is that everywhere there are figures of all kind of animals of different sizes, but they are not classified or described either. There is no logic.

Its a must-visit place when you come to Thailand, and please make sure you have at least half a day to actually explore and appreciate the garden (kids will go mad with the Dinosaur valley). The garden is spacious, there are a variety of trees and plants for you to feel fresh. Also the sky walk is a nice experience for an overview of the garden. The Dinosaur valley is a wow attraction, not only it has almost 1:1 Dino, but also there are many types from herbivores to carnivores.

Great place, definitely a must see. Very detailed dinosaur park with literally hundreds of different dinosaurs. Uncountable collection of plants, noted as one of the top 10 best gardens in the world. Another big thing is the 2 x car enthusiasts museum, rare cars old to new. Elephants were sad to see all chained up but everything else was amazing.

I first visited these gardens in south Jomtien some fifteen years ago and they have expanded almost out of recognition. Some 1,000 baht (£21) entry for foreigners but cheaper for Thais. Make sure you get tickets for the additional shows and transport you want over the basic entry fee. Vast open car park and easy entry. Begins with an extremely impressive and lavish Thai history and cultural show almost worth the entry fee on its own that lasts about 30 minutes. You then move on to an elephant show. I'm not a great fan of the commercialisation of wild animals taught to play popular sports like football and basketball for entertainment but I was one of a very small minority. You can buy a ticket to view the vast gardens by open-sided minibus which drops you off at various locations. Lots of secluded tropical gardens and water features which are very picturesque. We opted to walk around a lot despite the heat utilizing the overhead walkways which are being constantly expanded. At the end there is an array of dinosaur features. Not my thing but understand it's to attract families. Make sure you have plenty of water with you as despite the mini-buses and refreshment booths dotted around there's a lot of walking involved. Quite a long day but overall enjoyed the experience and would highly recommend.

Wonderful place to spend a day in thailand. They have too much attraction to entertain a tourist. They have cultural show, elephant show , elephant ride, garden tours and etc. Can spend a whole day easily

This place is HUGE!! Booking a tour around the place is recommended. We were all surprised and amazed by how detailed, careful attention is paid to make this masterpiece the way it is today. Lots of sights for photos with friends. We enjoy our time a lot here. BUT the garden is seated quite far from city centre. Be aware of transportation fees and tolls (if you use highways).

Booked this as a last minute idea for something to do nearby another attraction. Didn't expect what I was about to see.... Driving up I started to realise this place was quite big, it reminded me of visiting Disney world looking at the scale of the parking areas and the ticket booth was like an aircraft hangar. At first I thought it was quaint, then walking deeper into the gardens I was mildly impressed, then after an hour of walking I came to the realisation that I have never thought that this many different types of plants could be in one location, it was flabbergasting if I'm honest. As we walked through the areas, the dinosaur sculptures seemed impressive, not awkward and they looked well made, again as we walked further in and then ended up taking a bus tour we suddenly realised the scale of this place and the size of some of these dinosaurs, every single one seemed accurate to the size I expected Including the very very large ones which you needed to really step back to take photos of! This is the best garden I have visited, the plants they have on display and in the nursing areas must be in the millions. This is ideal for children, just don't go during the hot season. The food was cheap. Plenty of toilets dotted all over, disabled access also. Would recommend a visit if you have a family or just like to see well presented gardens.

The area is very very big and there are a lot of areas to explore. Amazing park and really large lots of options to do. They also have spa if you don’t want to do things here. We also had lunch here and they have a buffet and lots of variety of food What I hate though is that I feel bad for the elephant during the elephant show though, they ask for tips every show they do, they go around in elephants for the elephants to collect.

Yes, one of the top gardens in the world!Pebble mosaic walls and hand crafted pots with people faces are amazing! Lots of huge old bonsais well located all over the garden. Countless big and small dinosaurs are everywhere. It’s so clean in each corner. The culture and elephants show are great. I say it’s not only a garden but also an art gallery of its own kind!

Magnificent place. Its beautiful... Actually it's a great place to click photos and make reels . And most beautiful the scenic view is from above. You should go around 5 so that you can enjoy the sunset there. The entire city view you can enjoy from that top.

My experience visiting the Big Buddha Temple was truly unforgettable. The temple is located on a hill overlooking the ocean, and the view is simply breathtaking. The giant statue of the Buddha is truly impressive, standing at 12 meters tall and covered in gold leaf. The surrounding gardens and buildings are also beautiful and well-maintained. Visitors to the temple can take their time exploring the different areas, including the main temple hall and smaller buildings with various Buddhist statues and shrines. There are also several food stalls and souvenir shops on the grounds.

The beautiful temple at the top of the hill captivated me. I cherished the spot and the sense of divinity it gave, especially with the ascending steps. The arrangement of various sculptures, including the main one, was intriguing against the stunning backdrop of the hilltop view. This was my final major stop before concluding the Thailand tour, and I must say, it was an excellent finale indeed. They say that if you ask for a boon here and it comes true, you should return again with offerings.

Beautiful views and quite the hike for an old man like me. If you're in Pattaya you should check it out. You drive up or take a taxi. I took a baht bus as far as I could and walked the rest of the way.

One of the best Pilgrim stations in Thailand which became a business place now because of street shops. You can see shops even at the courtyard of the temple. Temple has preserved beautifully and still they do create one-two statues year on year. I could see 2-3 new statues after my last visit. View from the backyard is so beautiful. You can see seaside from there. Blowing of each bells with the stick will give you different experiences. I love blowing the bells even though it’s a ritual of the temple.

Wonderful place to visit in the morning for a sunrise or early evening for sunset, as the view is quite nice and the many statues beautiful. This is a special temple in Pattaya, but can feel overly touristic and monetary, but this shouldn't detract from the experience. Sunrise, you'll likely be the only visitor and have the whole place to yourself like I tend to do often.

It is free. No need to buy ticket. But you can give donations to help this temple's maintenance. Too many people were there, so difficult to take a good picture.

Beautiful big buddha temple in Bangkok. Located at a height, so view of the city available from behind the temple. You can easily book a cab online to go to and from this place.

Visited Buddha temple in Pattaya.. Reaching this place is very simple and entrance itself gives you an amazing experience. We had lot of photos at the dragons at the entrance. This place will give you devotional feeling. Golden Buddha is amazing in close up. Place was very clean and had some awesome view of pattaya beach. Don’t miss this place in your trip plan

its a beautiful temple on a mountain . You will walk up a flight of steps with the protective Nagas on both sides and be greeted at the top by a 18 meter tall Buddha statue and a collection of additional buddha statues Ample parking is available and its free of charge to visit

Another beautiful Budda Temple in Thailand. Nice and peaceful ambience. We went there by night.. With all lights and arrangements it was a good place to visit. It's on high altitude spot.. We can see the a part of Pattaya from the top point which is mesmerizing.

You can visit this place for free. There is no admission ticket. A women has to cover their shoulders and knees while visiting the temples. The free cover ups are also available there. But it's advisable to dress up properly rather than to use someones' used things. It was a crowdy place in the evening time. People are crazy in taking photos. You cant find peace over there. The temple is located on a hill overlooking the ocean, and the view is simply breathtaking. The giant statue of the Buddha is truly impressive, standing at 12 meters tall and covered in gold leaf. The surrounding gardens and buildings are also beautiful and well-maintained. There are also several food stalls and souvenir shops on the grounds. Visitors to the temple can take their time exploring the different areas, including the main temple hall and smaller buildings with various Buddhist statues and shrines.

But it's advisable to dress up properly before visiting the temple. There are also several food stalls and souvenir shops on the grounds. This place is very crowded on weekends and a little less crowded on weekdays. It would be better for you to go to the temple in the evening because it will be very hot during the day. Still, if you guys go during the day, don't forget to apply your sunscreen. The stairs are very slippery due to the continuous running of water, so go carefully. Highlights • A woman has to cover their shoulders and knees while visiting the temples. • Temple is less crowded during weekdays. • Stairs are very slippery, go carefully.

Upon arrival, you are greeted by stairs leading to the statues. The stair steps have low rises. So it is easy to climb. There are several statues in the area. And there is one big one in the middle. There are souvenir shops in the area. The place is located on higher elevation. The back of it has good vantage point of Pattaya. It is also a good place to watch the sunset.

amazing place. The view from the mountain is very impressive and gives a beautiful view of all the beaches. It is important to know that the place of the Buddha is very holy to Thai people and it is important to behave respectfully towards the place. They make sure that women's who enter the place cover their upper bodies and legs. There is a souvenir shop and t-shirts for tourists. You don't need more than a 30-minute visit. If you need to go to the bathroom it is better to stop before you arrive.

Visiting the Big Buddha Temple in Bangkok is an experience that stays with you. From the moment my friend and I set foot on the temple grounds, we were swept away by the serenity and beauty that enveloped us. The temple, also known as Wat Phra Yai, houses an enormous golden Buddha statue that is not only a testament to religious devotion but also a masterpiece of Thai craftsmanship. Standing at an impressive height and visible from miles away, it dominates the landscape with a calm yet majestic aura. The temple is nestled on a hill, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding area. The journey up the steps to the Big Buddha is a spiritual ascent into a realm of peace and contemplation. The atmosphere is thick with the scent of incense and the sounds of distant chants, which enhances the sense of spirituality that permeates the place. The architecture of the temple, with its intricate designs and traditional Thai elements, is a visual treat. The Buddha itself is a sight to behold, with each detail of the statue meticulously crafted, radiating a sense of inner peace that is almost tangible. What made the visit truly memorable was the warm hospitality of the locals and the monks who maintain the temple. They share stories and insights about the temple’s history and significance, which enriches the visit far beyond a simple tourist experience. The Big Buddha Temple is not just a place to visit; it's a place to experience tranquility, reflect on life, and appreciate the beauty that human faith and artistry can create. For anyone traveling to Bangkok, this is a must-visit destination that offers a unique blend of spiritual enrichment and cultural exploration.

It is around 5 kilometer from Pattaya central. Most of the people visit this place in the morning but we went at night and believe me the view of pattaya city from the top of this mountain was mind blowing. There is no public transport available here you have to book the cab or hire taxi. This is a very good place so you should visit when you visit pattaya.

Buddha temple where we can pray for happiness and make a small monetary sacrifice for this purpose. It's a very pleasant place to visit and take some good pictures as a souvenir.

It was a peaceful experience where I had the opportunity to receive a blessing from a monk. The climb up the hill was not too difficult and was quite quick. Once at the top, I was greeted with stunning views. Like in other temples, it's important for women to wear clothing that goes below the knees. Highly recommend a visit for the serene atmosphere and the scenery.

Entry is free to this place. If you taking public transport then it's a long and steep walk to reach the place. The place has a sense of calmness. Place was very clean. Great place for prayers. The view from top is really good. Must do this place if you coming to Pattaya. Way back the taxi guy charged 200 bahts to drop us to beach road. It was worth the visit.

Every time, when I visit this temple, I go to have a blessing from the monk. If you don't bring gifts for the monks don't worry you can buy them in the temple and give them during ceremony of blessing. 🙏

A huge Buddha in a top of one of the mountains of Phuket where you can see breathtaking views. The buddha is very big and very well designed and detailed.

Easy to go, free parking, free entrance, astonishing Buddha. At 800m there is the monastery, more quite, and the highest point of view on Pattaya.

Big Buddha Temple is great if your in the area, on the bucket list and or on your tour. Its free but please do have clothing that covers up to the knee and relevant tops as it is a religious place. A quick stop over which is great dont need too long to have a look around Big Buddha Temple at Pattaya.

Neat shrine, many Buddha statues and the main one as well. On top of small hill with an excellent afternoon breeze. Easy walk down to the Pattaya City sign and the marina.

About half an hour of speed boat ride from Pattaya beach we reached our first destination; a bigger boat with changing on boat for Sea Bed walking. We were really excited to wear diver heavy helmet linked with air pipe & jumped in the sea, reached sea bed, walking on sea bed was really wonderful. Corals & schools of beautiful fishes were there. We were taken to the coral island beach, it looked beautiful with white sand, blue sea, whitish cloud at horizon, a lot of people were enjoying the beach. I loved swimming in water. We rode Jet Ski & Banana boat. Changing were available, a lot of restaurants serving sea food & other dishes were there. The best beach experience we had in Pattaya that everybody should not miss.

My trip to Coral Island, Pattaya, was an absolute delight! The experience of cruising through the azure waters to reach the island added an adventurous touch to the journey. Once on the island, I was mesmerized by the pristine white sandy beaches and the crystal-clear waters, perfect for swimming and water activities. Snorkeling in the vibrant coral reefs was a highlight, as I got to witness the colorful marine life up close. The island's picturesque landscape made for some stunning photographs and unforgettable memories. However, I must mention that the island can get crowded during peak tourist seasons, so visiting during quieter times is recommended for a more serene experience. Overall, Coral Island is a must-visit destination for nature lovers and water enthusiasts, offering a refreshing escape from the hustle and bustle of Pattaya city.

Well maintained space with amazing scenery. The speed boat drive covering up to 10 km in 7 minutes was a memorable experience. A good variety to choose from once on the Island

Such a beautiful island. If you're visiting Pattaya try coming to this island. Clean water and beautiful island. Research on ferry transition time if you're on budget. Motor boat ride for 10 people group cost around 2500-3000 Baht

SMALL AND BEAUTIFUL I visited three times 2012, 2017, 2019 and it is slowly getting overcrowded. However, I love this place. My first white sand beach and it has some great food stalls/ shops. I love the Crabs and the Prawns out of everything. It was beyond delicious. 😋 I have some great memories and experiences out there and this place will always be very close to my heart. ❤️ P.S: I would request all the travellers to not to throw garbage or plastic at any random spots/ places. Please use the bin and keep the place clean.

"Coral Island 🏝️ is simply amazing. After a 20-25 minute speedboat ride, you will reach an island surrounded by ocean, but the crowd is too much."

Touristy island during the day time. Peaceful after 6pm once the last ferry leaves. If you take the first ferry and leave with the last ferry, a day trip should be enough. But if you have time, you may consider staying for a night. Food ain’t cheap here, as i understand everything needs to be shipped over. Average 100 Baht per meal. You’ll very likely need to rent a bike here for 300 Baht nett. Otherwise bike taxi gonna charge you like 40-50 Baht per trip.

I just love this place.. Great place to enjoy with family and friends! The Coral islands are about 45 mins speed boat traveling from Pattaya beach. Best time to reach at site by 10:00 AM morning so you can get more time to relax and enjoy. Nice location. Beaches are very clean. Lot of fun activities around. My opinion and observation about the place is simply and shortly, the people who like nature, like natural beauty, less crowded place, place for fun, place for spending quality time with their loved once this is the right place. In water activities parasailing, banana boating 🛶 jet ski 🎿, scuba diving and much much more. Facilities like shower, changing rooms, restaurants, seafood food outlets are available. Before arriving to coral island, there are some activities to do (boat parachute ride, under sea walking etc..) you can hire the boat in Pattaya beach. Prefer to book the tour before you go. Each event payments should be done in each place. It's good to have new experience in new place. The only way to Coral Islands is via speedboat and the ride can get bumpy. Beware of sea sickness.

With crystal clear water, plentiful coral reefs, and beautiful stretches of fine white sand, Thailand’s Coral Island is peaceful and so beautiful. Take a 45 minute boat ride from Pattaya to explore the gorgeous Coral Island. Do not forget to wear ur life jackets in the boat ride. you can spend your time snorkeling, scuba diving, jet skiing. Drink the sweetest coconut water . A lovely place.

It was a lovely experience. we visited 4 different islands in speed boat. I experienced jet ski, banana ride, paragliding, sea walk.

Its a wonderful place, make sure you have extra pair of clothing and wear slippers. Roads are very steep so be careful if you are planning to hire a bike. Incase you wish to enjoy full day, DO NOT take package with Indian meal as they will serve you back in Pattaya only, i.e between 2-3pm.

Must visit and do sports activities with crystal clear water, plentiful coral reefs, and beautiful stretches of fine white sand, Thailand’s Coral Island is peaceful and so beautiful. Take a 45 minute boat ride from Pattaya to explore the gorgeous Coral Island. Do not forget to wear ur life jackets in the boat ride. you can spend your time snorkeling, scuba diving, jet skiing. Drink the sweetest coconut water. A lovely place.

stunning beaches and a good few of them really worth a visit Ferry tickets 40 baht from pattaya. great place to get away from the madness of pattaya.

Coral island is known for different activities. ParaSailing is one, ask for dip. Jetsking was also good, there would be a person from the team assisting us. They would give a 2 min ride where we would be the one driving it. Banana boat♥️ flip is a must. Underwater walk also was nice, as i didnt do it, donno how to review it

I would recommend a day trip to Coral Island, lots of water sports, crystal clear water, snorkeling and sea walking Beautiful view point and big buddha statue 360 windmills view point Don’t miss this experience

Must visit place to include in your pattaya itinerary. You can reach there by public ferry 45 mins travel time for 30 baht one side or by speed boat 15 -20 mins for 250-350 baht up and down. The boat starts from Bali Hai Pier. For taxi, you can give location as Bali Hai Pier clock tower. You will find lot of boat agents. You have to bargain for better deal. You can pay for paragliding, snorkeling, sea walking, jet ski etc. bargain for better rate . All inclusive max 1500-2000 baht. After you reach Coral island, must take bike for rent 30-50 baht per hour, or buggy car 200 for full day or negotiated for hourly rates and then you can explore the island. You have nice restaurants also there. Indian , thai, continental all types of cuisines. Full day enjoyment.

Must visit this place, if you love white sand beaches with clear green water. Many water activities are available here. Take a ferry or speed boat to reach here.

Interesting place to visit and currently free for foreigners which I think is designed to bring back more tourists after the ravages of Covid. The Ticket Office is closed. A nice collection of shops selling crafts, clothing, food etc. Also a few places with low tables where you sit on the floor and eat. The area isn't fully open at the moment; access to the rear section of the floating market has been boarded off, but there's still enough to see here to make it a worthwhile visit.

This place is not a real floating market. It is a tourist attraction built on a lake. Everything is catered exclusively for tourists and there is nothing authentic about it. There is an entry fee to enter and every stall is exactly the same as what you'd get in a tourist shopping centre. The whole place looks run down with a lot of closed stalls and there are barely any boats left in the water.

Explore the myriad of traditional Thai crafts, delectable street food stalls, and charming wooden boats selling local delicacies is a delightful sensory adventure, offering a glimpse into the rich tapestry of Thai culture and heritage. Dos: -> Do arrive early to avoid crowds and have ample time to explore the market's offerings at a leisurely pace. -> Do bring cash, as many vendors may not accept credit cards, and bargaining is customary when purchasing goods.

One of the best tourist attractions in Thailand is the Pattaya floating market. Shops are located on top of water bodies and some people sell their items on boats, This is quite an experience. Do not forget to try the orange /water melon fresh juice that is usually sold by a lady near the bridge where you are supposed to board the boats. When I visited this place there was a water festival Going on and mind you people will try to pour, sprinkle, spray water on you and you need to take this in an open manner which most Indians don't 😂. You can also try the exotic crocodile meat if you are willing to experience something different. Apart from these souvenirs, hand crafted items and mementos can be purchased here.

Thailand is known for its floating markets, which are located along canals and are crowded with locals selling food, clothing, and artifacts. These markets offer a distinct shopping experience and allow you to taste Thailand's traditional culture. Visitors can even take a boat ride and enjoy seasonal fruit refreshments - all included in the entrance fee. Furthermore, the convenience of being near Tiger Park allows visitors to experience both in a single day.

It’s man made, so definitely giving tourist vibe. However, ended up being really neat. Fish spa was sick. Fed goats. Thai milk tea - horrendous. Pineapple, mango, coconut - top notch.

The floating market offers a variety of souvenir items, fashion, and local delicacies! Should definitely be visited.💖 Pro tip: If you'll be buying souvenirs, it's best to have it in bulk to get more discounts. You can haggle/ negotiate with the vendors, but be mindful that they're running a business to provide for their families. Upon arriving, you have to get a ticket to enter. Be careful not to lose said ticket. Afterward, you may freely roam around. 🤸‍♀️ The restrooms are quite far but they're clean. They have BIDET!!!💕 Most importantly: Bring an umbrella as it might rain or the sun rays are too bright.

Absolutely loved it. Nice place to spend half of the day. Be careful of the taxi mob front of the gate (there was a man strongly insisting to cancel the ride and pick his cars), outside, when you travel your own. Our Uber couldn't pick us up due to the "rules". Arrange the pick up before or after the main gate.

They charged 899 batt per pax,comes with fees slices off watermelon and pineapple, 1 photo, 1 boat rides and suppose with a souvenir,but there didn't give to us. The boat rides about 15 mins, feels commercial and not worth to spend time on it. So lively at all

The market's waterways add a unique touch, making it a picturesque setting for exploration.

Whether you're a shopper or a culture enthusiast, Pattaya Floating Market promises a memorable and authentic Thai encounter that shouldn't be missed.

The Pattaya Floating Market is generally praised for its unique cultural experience. Visitors enjoy the vibrant atmosphere with numerous traditional Thai wooden boats selling a variety of local products, handicrafts, and street food. The market's picturesque setting adds to its charm. However, some reviews mention that prices can be higher than in other local markets, and bargaining is advisable. Despite this, many appreciate the opportunity to explore Thai culture, sample diverse foods, and shop for souvenirs in a scenic and lively environment.

Good place with variety for food and shopping. Place it beautiful designed while keeping Thai culture and tradition and architecture in mind. Shopkeepers can speak English, and it is not very expensive.

It was a must experience who didn't see floating market anytime. The foods and stalls serve so fresh foods. And seatings are good.

Surprisingly it is not bad. I did not come before COVID time due to many tour buses in front. They have a lots of shops, some are still empty, and restaurants area is far back. We enjoy a fish spa / Fish doctor too. Area is big. Thai citizens are free entrance. I have Thai driver’s license and speak Thai then free with my kids.

We were passing by and thought on stopping to check what was happening, on the entry we saw this goats little spot that you can pet them or buy milk to feed them, they are super cute and there’s baby’s inside also. You don’t need to pay if you want you can just go and pet them. We then approached the entry of the floating market and there were full of huge buses from the tourists that came from far, the prices are extremely high like 400 baths just to enter and 800 baths for the whole circuit. This is basically a tourist trap. We saw there was restaurants inside and everything but to be honest the prices are just too much.

When i was there it was full of Chinese tour group. It was very hot. Not so many stuff. Most of things that selling there nearly look the same in every shop. Very smelly toilet. Around 30 minutes from pattaya beach.

Great experience roaming around the market in a small boat. This floating market is made completely in a traditional way. So you can get some old traditional Thai vibe from there. At the time we went, the water is not clear because of the rainy season. If it’s clear water then you can click great photos from there. There are lot of shops inside that floating market which sell souvenirs for the tourists. Also I saw an article painting live over there and selling their paintings. It’s a beautiful place to explore once in a lifetime.

Definitely was a good place to visit but some parts are under construction. The boat ride was definitely a bit costly so opted out of it. There are a few places to shop and eat at.

There is an entrance cost of 200 baht. You can prepay for a boat ride as well. There are plenty of vendors and food stalls in the market. There's plenty of shade if you walk the entire market. Part of the market is closed due to renovation. Still, there are plenty of shops that will sellbyou stuff. It's a nice atmosphere but a lot of the products here can be found in any market in Pattaya. Come and visit to experience something different.

Enjoyed the boat ride through the market. I would recommend you to take a boat ride first, they will drop you to the end of the floating market, then just walk back, do the shopping, and taste some Thailand food. I tried Crocodile BBQ first time from here. It was good. I chose spicy flavour so after that to cool it I tried their bubble tea from another shop. Bought some bag and souvenirs. The sellers are really friendly. But don’t forget to bargain, because they know you will bargain so they might tell you higher rates at first, when you bargain they tell the original or lowest price possible.

Nice floating market in the city center, has a variety of local handicraft, clothes and lots of food. Has a boat you want experience it, they charge 100 per person for 1 round. They also have traditional dances and bands around as well. Most vendors speaks both English and Chinese. Would recommend coming.

It's a good option for a small shopping trip; we didn't opt for the boat ride, which costs 800 THB per person.

The place is very calm and quite. Row boats are available with boat man to move along the artificial lake. Many shops made of wooden stuff are seen. But the prices are a bit high compared to street market in pattaya. Parking is available. You may spend three hours in this market. If you like this review, please like and comment. Thank you.

The Pattaya Floating Market is a go-to spot for its unique cultural experience. The people traverse through the market on traditional Thai wooden boats. There are shops on either side of the boat selling a variety of local products, handicrafts, and street food. The pricing of the products can be a bit high compared to local markets outside, so i would suggest visiting this place just for the ambience and the atmosphere it provides. This is an amazing opportunity to explore Thai culture, try out diverse foods, and shop for souvenirs in a scenic and lively environment, though i would suggest keeping your bargaining skills handy.

The floating market is said to be one of the traditional markets in Thailand where locals sell their goods/food/arts/apparels etc. The place seemed to be deserted while I visited and the shops were super expensive compared to night bazaar or other outlets. Locals are aware that this is more of touristy spot and sell their goods at a higher price. Overall, it was a new experience as I have never been to such a market, but wouldn’t recommend buying anything from here.

the beach is very beautiful Not too many people and a new beach at sunset is even more beautiful. can take a walk after the sun is very good, the atmosphere is good and there are many restaurants on the side of the road, can eat or sit and watch the sunset or take a walk It is a good tourist attraction in Pattaya with not many people.

I love Jontiem beach. It's clean. Has lots of space for families to enjoy. The view of the sky is amazing here too. Sunsets are breathtaking.

The beach is made with care for disabled people. There are ramps. On the beach you can rent a sun lounger, an umbrella, and buy a drink. There are paid toilets and shops nearby. Excellent service, Thai citizens who set up sun loungers every day, sweep the beach every day. Remove fallen leaves from trees and debris.

Nice beach but always nudity

We visited the main beach across from the mad cow burger shed. Was very hot. We were able to stay under the umbrellas and peruse all the food vendors that wander through. We arrived at 7 am and stayed until around 2. I ate a lot of different foods. The lady renting the shade was prompt and kept us stocked up Ice and refreshments. Was all at a reasonable price.

The local government have done a good job on the improvements good transport along the beach front many restaurants to suit all budgets and plenty of convenience stores

Nice and very wide beach that has many activities at the beach and in the sea, the view in the evening time is very good. The beach is clean, there are lots of restaurant serving Thai food and lots of parking area to park along side with the main road.

Jomtien beach during the sunset is very nice and crowded. They just fill the beach up with tons of sand so the beach area now is very large and also organized as there are the zoning for varieties of beach activities.

Santa Erik Claus. I was on the beach giving out toys to good kids. This is a very kid friendly beach with a big playground. A great beach to sit and rest. Yes it was Very HOT for me but you should dress more light. Videos are on YouTube of my walking on the beach talking to kids and giving out gifts.

The beach is pretty nice. Many areas off the main road are very poor. Not much to see. But at dusk it's beautiful at the beach.

"โปรดช่วยกันรักษาความสะอาดนะค่ะ" 🌟 I've seen many things improve coming here Jomtien Beach this time. I love it. The vibe, things all around and activities the people do. Nice to see everyone is happy and be themselves in their own way. This place gives such a freedom and great spirit. People are together, friends or family - eating, drinking or listening to the music. Good place to exercise, walking around and watching people. You will never feel lonely although you are alone and it's safe. But I love to see more of everyone responsibility to this place , keep it clean. I would like to see more that this place is cleaner and everyone take care of it. Everyone cares and respects this place. We are so lucky, particularly people who actually live in Pattaya. You have such amazing place. Please keep it clean.

The beach is beautiful . Spend a whole day enjoying. Many street vendors markets and restaurants. And my favorite 7 11. I highly recommend getting a massage, the prices are the best in Thailand .

Great beach. Always a light breeze. Great walking for exercise - i walk every morning at 5:30 fir a couple of hours. Clean. Great people and vendors. Lots of relaxing spots on beach plus food options a cross from beach. Relax. Sun. Fun. Safe!!!

We stayed in a hotel just across from the beach so it was very handy. Lots of activities and time to sit and sunbake with offers of food and drink and merchandise from local peddlers. Good place just to relax.

The beach is very large and fairly long, however what stands out for me is the cleanliness: I haven't seen one piece of plastic while walking near the shore for more than an hour. Really nice 👍

Love it! The weather was good in March, many activities over there so you can simply sit and enjoy!

This is the beach and place, where you will feel that you are not in Thailand but in some European country. Very long beach with a peaceful environment and lots of street food nearby. You can also enjoy the sports activies and definately enjoy the swimming in thie beach. This is very good and better than the Pattaya beach.

Best place for a beach walk and water activities. Many selection of restaurants/street food and massage place around. Swim wear, floaters, sand play toys and so on are for sale everywhere.

This is the most beautiful place I've been to. It feels like I got into a computer game, Like Archage. There are very beautiful and unusual trees and stones everywhere. There is also a zoo with elephants, giraffes and crocodiles, and other animals. Most animals can be fed bananas, which are sold nearby, or you can bring it with you. And you can also ride elephants, for extra pay!) Its really must have, if you fist time in Thailand!

Compared to Seoul, Korea, this zoo has very good accessibility. Also, because it is not very crowded, it is very convenient to watch. The Crocodile Show has a deep history and is a very fun performance. Lastly, I recommend taking pictures with animals. Please remember that there is a place for tea.

Very nice park. I had fun feeding so of the animals available for feeding. Many ancient petrified pieces of wood. Very nice crocodile show. And the giant catfish were huge!! Spent at least 3 hours there. The smoothies were very good.

I would call this as a mini zoo, a lot of crocodiles, then the giraffes and elephants, then a little of other many animals, they have a crocodile show, it’s not really something fancy or amazing but it’s ok not bad. You can spend 2 hours walking around in the park, taking photos with elephants, giraffes, tigers The park is nicely built so the walk inside is enjoyable You can buy fruit to feed the elephant and giraffes, also some chicken to feed the crocodiles Take an umbrella if it’s a sunny day Overall experience, it’s recommend and the kids enjoyed it.

One of the beautiful destination for tourists. Beautiful sculpture and crocodile show. Many wild animals whom we can feed.

Entering through the entrance, a million-year-old tree fossil appears. A variety of fossils and rocks are exhibited outdoors. At the crocodile show, a trainer's dizzying show is held. One of the most dangerous shows ever. The park is home to crocodiles, giraffes, elephants, tiger, white tiger and bears. White Tiger, born as a mutant, is one of the rarest animals. You can take a picture with such a white tiger. The fee is 300 baht. After taking a commemorative photo, print the photo. You can buy a fruit basket and give bananas directly to giraffes and elephants.

Don’t visit this safari park unless you support abusing animals. Thank you for letting me to see the dark side of safari park. This park made me literally cry during my visit. I couldn’t stop crying when I saw the workers used wood sticks to beat the tigers and force them for photo-taking. I couldn’t stop crying when I saw the elephants’ legs were tied. I couldn’t stop crying when I saw three tigers were locked in a small cage together. I couldn’t stop crying when I saw the performer hurt the crocodiles with his wood stick (please let them rest, they are not your toys). I would give this safari park higher score if it becomes animal-friendly. I can tell that this park just wanted to make money. Please don’t spend money to this park.

Today were no many visitors, maybe I met like 15 people in the park. Entrance is 200 baht for Thai people and 500 baht for foreigners. Foreigners living in Thailand can pay same price as Thai people. The stone park is beautiful, but too much of the same. They have birds and some wild animals like bears, many tigers, elephants and giraffe. And of course many crocodile and a crocodile show. I think it can be fun to visit the park with a family. They working hard on it to make it beautiful, maybe 500 baht entrance is a little high, but still it is a nice place to visit when you stay in Pattaya or Chonburi

A lovely experience in the park when the weather is cool. There are many animals to see such as tigers, elephants and giraffes. There is also a shop for drinks and snacks. It's best to go early in the morning when it's not too busy.

Nice for family or friends. You can feed giraffes, elephants and crocodiles. You can take pictures with elephants, crocodiles and tigers. (One normal tiger and one white tiger) my son enjoyed everything he loves feeding giraffes and crocodiles very much. We didn't take a pic with crocodiles. (Not my fave)😅

I’ve never had such a close interaction with tigers and other animals! I could smell the tiger’s breath (which smells like my dog haha) and tigress’s face was 5cm away from mine! Completely safe across the double net. Had a real connection with that beauty! The show was good, crocodiles are everywhere, giraffes, elephants… could per a giraffe and touch its tongue, fluffy nose and cute tiny horns. Saw my reflection in its gorgeous big black eyes. Prepare there is going to be an animal smell though, but it’s totally worth the experience!

Don't get confused with the name. This place is not only about stone, but more about animals. This is an ideal place to spend a few hours if you have kids. You can see a lot of birds, macaw's, cat fish pond, zebra, giraffe, monkey, bear, all sizes and shapes of crocodiles. You can also meet several white tigers, feed elephants, feed giraffes, feed crocodiles. You can also see crocodile show where you get to see a dude is putting his head inside crocodile mouth 😰. The place is so good for a family day out, inside you'll find a nice sitting area, restaurant etc. Entry fee is about 500b per adult, 200 per child. Overall it's good, and not very warm even during sun.

Definitely worth the price of admission. I love the elephants and the tigers were cool. All of the plants in the petrified wood and stone were pretty cool.

This is the popular tourist place near Pattaya. They have an exciting crocodile show! We can interact with other animals as well. Definitely a good way to spend an hour!

Bring an umbrella if it’s gonne be hot and sunny. The area is not too large. You can buy bananas at the guy who checks tickets. They only gave a park map when we asked.

A really great Park. Big with various Highlights. The Flora is impressive, you find also Aligators, Crocodiles, Giraffes, Elephants, white and yellow Tiger, Pony and different, rare Birds. The Crocodile Show is not a Highlight but the Lake behind full of Crocodiles. Here you have the opportunity to feet them. Exciting. The prices with 500 Baht for Farang and 200 Baht for Thais is a little bit annoying, but ok . For this they put a lot of work in that beautiful Park. Absolutely a recommendation. The only NoGo is, that all Labels and Explanations are only in Thai.

Apart from a million years old trees, rocks etc.. we can see animals like crocodiles, tigers, elephants, and giraffes. We can also feed them by buying fruits from the park. Moreover, the crocodile show is a must watch one in this park where the person who is doing this would take us to the edge of the seat.

Great to be on the beach but way better in the morning before the hustle and bustle of people!

Still alive

Music festival taking place . Literally tens of thousands people come to enjoy this event. Very peaceful and pleasant to watch. So many stalls selling Thai food. Super event of north side of beach road

The lighting on the beach side is .much improved .and the pavements on the beach side is generally in good condition.The sand was clean,and the sunsets were wonderful.

😁 This road is along pattaya beach where you can enjoy running or strolling along the beach. 🚘 To park the car, you need to do the parallel parking along the road; otherwise, find it in the nearby alley. 📌 Currently, the beach has been renovated with new sand and new scene. Everything is clean, so you can enjoy walking on the beach anytime. Moreover, you can sit or rent a beach chair for relax. 📑 During the time I visited, there was Pattaya Music Festival 2021 (พัทยามิวสิคเฟสติวัล 2021) which is the first music festival after COVID-19 pandemic. 📅 Information as of November 6, 2021

Road was neat & clean. Few sitting benches were seen. Good for morning & evening walk. Beach sand was white & sea water was blue. Sky was clear as well & night views was beautiful. A lot more hotels, restaurants & vendors were around.

Amazing place

Love the morning here, nice beach

Most beautiful beach in the heart of the pattaya city⛱️

Allways something happening, plenty of bars and resteraunts to escape the sun and enjoy the sea breezes

This roàd of Pattaya passes by the side of the seashore hence called Beach Road. It offers spectacular vistas of the beach and the sea on one side while on the other side there are commercial establishments like shopping malls, hotels, restaurants, fast food joints, etc. Enjoyed walking on this street during the daytime as it offers panoramic vistas of the beach and the sea.

I came here thirteen times and I always like and enjoy an evening walk at Pattaya down Beach road it has so much life and happiness everyone is blessed to be there who goes there and when the sun is shining or setting down is a wonderful thing to see. Latest Date of experience: June 2023

Quite a great place to visit especially if you enjoy busy places.

A good walk near the beach.

It's a beautiful place to walk to have a beer and good food. People are friendly and beautiful. It's a good stretch of shopping, walking, beach and good restaurants.

Nice large store. Good layout with mall entrance on the inside and facing beach on the outside. Date of visit : December 2023

Well stocked and very organized store. The staff were accommodating and willing to help customers. Always prefer to buy clothings and apparels from Uniqlo, good quality clothings and prices are reasonable enough.

Spent 4200 baht on clothes but get charged for a paper bag!!! Terrible customer relations. The changing rooms have only 1 coat hook! So either your clothes or the shops clothes have to go on the floor while you change! Poor management

very unfriendly cashier. a Thai came after me, but the cashier pushed me aside and served the Thai first, telling me to keep the queue. he did not tell the truth, since I came to the cash register earlier. very disrespectful.

It's Unique, has very good quality of textile and unique as well as sober designs. Impressive selection at this store. Located in a mall and in the basement floor it is a bit hidden but it's worth a visit.

The location is very strategically near Pattaya Beach, for goods, it is still the same as Uniqlo Thailand in general.

Loved and good for other.

Great store for Levi and high quality items. Careful of the sizes though, everything runs small

Quite a lot to see. Took me 1 hour to view everything. I am giving 3 stars only, the management cannot explain why foreigners are being charged 300 Baht whilst Thai residents only pay 100 Baht. I must say, that this place is well-maintained even after the Pandemic. Toilets also smell good and very clean.

This is a very small park, not a whole-day type of attraction... However, being able to see all the greatest monuments of the world in one place is amazing. it's not organized but rather a mix of all monuments positioned randomly in the park- Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty, Sydney Opera House, and many others... The sun was strong and it was very hot but the place provides umbrellas for the visitors. recommended at the end of your day-

Decided to go have a look here today. I thought it was pretty cool although it could do with more maintenance. But over all we had fun taking photos)

I don't think the "Sanctuary of Truth" is worth paying 500 Baht for, but this place is fairly priced and totally worth the cost of 300 Baht. So much to see here, and not just iconic structures of Siam but across the World, with a big section on Europe. This place covers a large area. I've travelled widely around the World so I ended up playing a game to see how many sites I could identify before reading the very good information boards which are also in English. Was dehydrated at the end, so very glad there was a Caffe on site where I could buy a cold drink.

This place is a little bit of fun, to see some of the greatest structures from around the world to include a few that don’t exist but hey it’s all in good fun. Bring sunscreen, they do have umbrellas for sun as well. There is a small restaurant or drink place to take a break, there is fish to feed as well have we had some fun with that…pond monster! 🦈

Twice my family and I visited Mini Siam. What remains interesting are the replicas of world monuments. Especially if we like to create educational content. In front of the Liberty replica, for example, you can talk about John Locke and the Declaration of Independence. In front of the Colosseum replica you can talk about Roman Gladiators rather than Greek athletes.

Mini Siam in Pattaya is a delightful miniature wonderland that captures the essence of iconic landmarks from around the globe. This enchanting attraction offers a fascinating glimpse into different cultures and architectural marvels, all meticulously recreated in intricate detail. Strolling through Mini Siam feels like embarking on a whirlwind tour of the world's most famous sites in just a matter of hours. It's a charming and unique experience that appeals to visitors of all ages, making it a must-visit destination for anyone exploring Pattaya. Entrance fee for foreigner is 300 baht.

Nice place. But I expected a lot more details, miniatures are thrown on each other, leading to overall mass of everything compressed on one place. Based on reviews I read on Google Maps I thought that this will be the place where I would spend at least 2-3h of my time, 40 min and we were off. There are around 30 world miniatures and 30 Siam(Thai) miniatures, not that much. Definitely not something what I would desire to attended again.

Costs 300 Baht to enter and it was very quiet when I visited. The front of the area is basically famous international sites with the back being Thai buildings. Note that it can be quite hot if it's sunny and the interest level will depend a lot of who is visiting.

Well, it was a good place to visit on Morning or Evening time, but not during afternoon, it's kinda hot, good side is they provide the umbrella. I'm visitor from Malaysia, but after walk around, I'm not sure whether I'm overlooked, there are no famous building from Malaysia (even though I saw the Merlion for Singapore), this make me a little bit disappointed. We bought the ticket from Klook which is cheaper & the redemption is smooth enough.

It's one of the funnest parks where you can take pictures with all the sights of the world! It's recommended that not go there at the noon and if you want to do, don't worry! there are umbrellas that u can protect your skin.

Nice miniature art of iconic places from all over the world. 1.5 - 2 hrs reqd to complete it. Either go in morning time else after 4:30 pm

The park is divided into 2 parts - Thai and the other world. The latter one is quite interesting, but what I really liked is the former one. I just have created a huge travel list for the whole of Thailand and got a pretty good trailer for that!

choose evening time to visit this place if possible cause its hot there, fun to see world's major attractions covered in miniature, one of our group member lost his phone in the park, we checked for CCTV cameras but couldn't get it back, so one star less for that, otherwise its okay place for children, we spend around 1 hour at here.

Initially, I was somewhat skeptical, but as soon as I entered the park, I fell in love with this place! 🥰 A little dirty, but this is explained by the fact that we came on a Sunday evening. I really liked the area with the Eiffel Tower and Egypt ❤️

Lovely place. We visited at 17:00 because it's Hot in there. A proportional dize of the site, so one can stay between 1-2 hours. The maintenance of the tablets that explain every miniature are pure, also the information is insufficient.

It's 400 Baht entry fee for foreigners with no discount for pensioners, but overall I think it's probably worth the cost. This place is all about illusion, whether it's the classic drawings of shapes that can't exist in reality in the first room you enter or all the 3D effects created by clever painting techniques. I try to always highlight the good points as well as pointing out things that could be better. As regards the Art works there are some really good 3D paintings here and the large room near the end uses all the Walls to create 3D scenes of places like Angkor Wat. But I have one key criticism, and it's to do with the lighting. Many of the paintings have reflections from the bright spotlights illuminating them. It's a shame because so much work has gone into the Art. It IS possible to correct this by either repositioning the lights if there's enough vertical space, or changing the style of lighting, perhaps using uplighting or strip lighting behind covered shades. I think this can be fixed with a little thought. It's the only reason this place gets 4 instead of 5 stars from me. One last Tip: Better if you go with someone so you can get photos easily in the 3D pictures, though I saw one guy with a phone tripod for taking selfies... Good idea, I forgot mine.

Nice place to hang out with family. Of course it’s little bit expensive for foreigner but overall is nice place to visit. For experience of this you have to download the app then only you can experience of 3D view of this. Place is Well maintained and clean.

A 3D exhibition. The part I liked most was the part with classical works. Other parts are also beautiful and interesting. If you are seeing a 3D exhibition for the first time, it will attract your attention, but if you have seen a better one, you may find it simple. Walking inside without shoes is a bit irritating. I think 400 baht is too much for this exhibition. A bit neglected.

For as long as humanity has existed, art has been part of our lives. For many years, people have been creating and enjoying art.  It expresses emotions or expression of life. It is one such creation that enables interpretation of any kind. It is a skill that applies to music, painting, poetry, dance and more. Moreover, nature is no less than art. For instance, if nature creates something unique, it is also art. Artists use their artwork for passing along their feelings.

Amazing place to visit and a must visit in my opinion as there arn't many places like this and this is a great place with great virtual and on site experiience. App is a little slow to load and procress thing.Its "illusion" and three-dimensional painting are ranged from period or country themes, and there is also a great mix of traditional and new art. This place requires you to remove your shoes before entering and this practice is so correct because it will not make you hesitate when you need to lay down to pose for pictures. We always think twice before posing for pictures on the floor when we were at other museums because the floor was so dirty! We also saw staff dry-mopping the floor regularly. We have so much fun and enjoy the experiences with the interactive paintings. Imagine yourself patting a giant cat while she meows, having giant flying wings, etc. So it is a Must to download their apps to enjoy your visit there.

This is a place where you and your family will enjoy. Children especially love this place a lot. I visited last December 2022 with my family. We explored for around 2 hours. The place is with color, picture and just wow...If you use their mobile application you will see the still pictures moving inside your mobile. So you can just take that picture or make some videos. Not all the pictures have that option. But a lot there. I surely recommend that place if you visit Pattaya.

Lovely place to spend an hour or so. Some of the illusions are amazing and their AR app is also great to enhance your experience. It costs 350Thai Baht per person.

Loved this experience. It took a few to realize the benefits of snapping photos vs video recording. Seeing many of the options for 3D was super cool

Such a Great Art museum! The paintings look really 3D! We took many great pics and had so much fun!

This was a place that surprised me, I've gone to a lot of galleries where we can take immersive photographs. This place took that concept up a notch making use of AR technology. I suggest people download that app before entering the place to save time and experience the art that comes to life. The place is very spacious and neat. A good experience.

Cool place to take some nice pictures in front of Wall Art. Additional app can be downloaded to make animations from the wall art(see the video). Tip! Take socks with you. You will need to take shoes off when entering the gallery. This is because lots of the art is also on the floor.

This was the first time I visited something like this!! Great creativity though, but our minds were not🤣!! It's a good place for kids to go around!! There's an app that needs to be installed before entering for which you will be guided there!!

This is a must visit place in Pattaya. Tickets can be taken from the counter. Helpful staff. You have to download their AR application. Also marked the position where the AR application works. Nice and great concept. Also, the photo service is available by the art in paradise. Shoes must be removed. Ideal place to see the difference of art.

This place is something you won’t find anywhere else, a perfect place to have a 3D and moving animation experience together. Whenever you visit this place do download their application art in paradise and then click your pictures or a make a video. Amazingly handled by the management. Also the best part is they have made marks from where you can click the best pictures and from where you could get the AR effect. Beautiful and creative experience.

As A Person Who Enjoys and Loves Art And Artists This Place Got To Be A Place I Needed To Be In. The Artists Efforts Can Be Seen In Every Corner Of The Place and Felt In A Big Way. You Can Really Enjoy And Take Creative Pictures While Being Here. Its Both Arts And Photographers Paradise Here. Its Not Much Crowded So You Can Take Your Time And Enjoy. The Place Is Really Colourful And Lighted Up Nicely. But I Really Feel This Place Is Advertised For 3D Animation and Stuff Rather Than Enjoying Art. Make Sure You Visit Here When You Come To Thailand.

Art in Paradise was a different kind of experience. I would recommend you download and install the AR app they suggest at the entrance. If you do that you can experience it completely. Just open the app and point towards the art and you could see it comes alive, otherwise it’s just another exhibition hall with good paintings. Use their wifi and use the app to capture arts that comes to life.

Great place to visit when you want to click something different from the touristy places here. They provide an Augmented Reality app to be downloaded on your phone and then you can click as much photos you want to in your phone through it. There are some spots which offer AR capabilities while some are just spots for clicking pictures. Overall a good place to visit and spend some time at!

This place is a good attraction in pattaya. Visiting hour is before 8 pm. They close at 9 pm. After entering into the place you will be asked to download their app. And take pictures or videos with big arts that have VR videos. Buying tickets in advance (before 5 pm) through online is cheaper.

It's a must-go place in Pattaya, you won't regret it. It is entertaining, especially if you're with kids. There are lots to see and take photos from. The air-conditioned place is very refreshing with Pattaya's hot weather.

Great place to get your next profile picture. great fun for all ages, well worth it. Friendly staff.

A great place to visit with super Ai technology and super 3D effects, just remember to to have your smart phone fully charged up! Kids and adults loved it. However, could have been a little more cheaper as the ticket price seemed a little steep. The day I visited there was a school trip group, so was a little busy in some rooms. Overall, a fun place to visit and not to be missed!

Nice place to spend a couple hours. They have many animals you can feed. The elephants are the main attraction obviously. The free drink given with the purchase of the entry ticket is very good.

Amazing place, free entry and really nice staff the animals looks happy for most of them, we dont ride éléphants because we dont really appreciate that but we still understand the thai culture/business about it, but every others activities is so entertaining and the Christmas show was AWESOME with santa claus, Avatar, king lion and many more !!! I will be back there for sure ! Just keep this place like how it is and we will come back 100%, big thanks for the elephant village team for this journey it will stay in our memory forever.

I visited this place yesterday. I honestly don't like to see animals in cages. BUT thought the elephants seam very happy. Nice place for a few hours. 15 minutes for a elephant ride is just right. Then watch a show. Good coffee ☕️ 😋

Very nice village. 100 Bath tips after entry is asked.. but it's also to support the wild elephants.

Pattaya Elephant Village offers a unique and heartwarming experience that beautifully intertwines conservation with cultural immersion. The sanctuary's commitment to the well-being of its majestic residents is evident from the moment you step in. The elephants roam freely in a natural environment, and the staff's dedication to their care is commendable. The guided tour provides insightful information about these gentle giants, their history, and the ongoing conservation efforts. Interacting with the elephants, feeding them, and even participating in a gentle ride creates an unforgettable connection. The handlers showcase genuine love and respect for the animals, ensuring a safe and ethical encounter. The village's serene surroundings add to the overall charm, allowing visitors to appreciate the tranquility of the Thai countryside. While the focus is on conservation, there's also an educational element that encourages visitors to become advocates for responsible elephant tourism. In summary, Pattaya Elephant Village stands out as a sanctuary that goes beyond the typical tourist experience. It's a place where compassion meets education, leaving visitors with not only lasting memories but also a heightened awareness of the importance of protecting these magnificent creatures.

Great experience to interact and feeding areas for animals. They have a cafe and several elevated viewing areas to watch different shows and the elephants, tucans, gibbons, etc. Free entry with a Thai drivers license, but please buy bananas, carrots, etc. to feed the beautiful animals.

Nice program and at good price, make sure you join for the theatre show. One problem in this place aa every poorly paid staff they ask you for tip without doing an extra service. There is elephant ride and there's a snake to hold and take pictures with, there are monkeys and other animals. At the stop of the elephants you can feed them bananas, touch and play with them, then there's a fish feedimg area, some duck and geese etc., then you continue walking to some gazelle cage followed by an old 4x4 ride (mind your head). The ride will stop at the silk production farm where you can see the life cycle of the worm, there are worms and there stuff of course and there's an old lady pretending she's sewing silk.

Left me with a zen like feeling. Totally worth the trip.

The experience was amazing the reason I'm putting 3 star because my friend and I left our belongings in the lockers while we bathed elephants and while we walked to the car our friends reminded us to check out wallets. My friend got $100 stolen and I got 6000bhat and $100 stolen in my bag. DO NOT TRUST THEM AND LEAVE UR MONEY AND CARDS AT HOME. ONLY BRING WHAT YOU NEED. BE WARN

Fabulous nature.! So fortunate frm d out-of-schedule/ unplanned visit, able to "play" wt d tame 🐘.

Worth less than you paid. If you are the foreigners, you require to pay the entrance fee (Thais can go in for free) Even “free” does not mean it is really “free” Food..foreign rate price and taste only at the average. There are staffs who dress fancy with animals. They will approach you so friendly and ask you to take a photo with them without telling anything. Then, you will surprised with the price that you need to pay. The show was not well organized. Start time was delay. Sounds and announcement lead to confusion instead of “WoW” result. It focused more on fancy staffs rather than do with elephants and other animals. Environments are not clean. I saw many animals were not be feeding properly. Hygiene is lower than the standard. Better to go to other new mini zoo.

The Pattaya Elephant Village offers a unique and educational experience with these magnificent creatures. Visitors can interact with elephants in a natural setting, learning about their history and conservation efforts. The dedicated staff prioritize the well-being of the elephants, making it a responsible choice for animal enthusiasts. The village's commitment to education and ethical treatment sets it apart, providing a memorable and enriching visit for those interested in responsible wildlife tourism.
