About the Pattaya Resort

Pattaya is one of Thailand's most popular resorts, situated on the eastern shore of the Gulf of Thailand just 150 km from Bangkok. The city extends 15 kilometres along the coast and offers a wide range of experiences — from quiet family beaches to lively night streets. Well-developed infrastructure, hundreds of restaurants and shopping centres, a tropical climate and accessible prices make Pattaya a suitable destination for travellers of any age and budget.

Pattaya is home to landmarks found nowhere else. The Sanctuary of Truth is a towering 105-metre wooden structure built entirely by hand without a single nail since 1981. Nong Nooch Tropical Garden spans 240 hectares and ranks among the world's top ten botanical gardens. Buddha Mountain, with its 18-metre gilded statue and observation deck, commands a sweeping panorama of the entire bay. The renowned Tiffany's and Alcazar shows fill their auditoriums every evening.

Interesting Facts about Pattaya

9 remarkable facts about the pearl of the Gulf of Thailand

01

From a fishing village to a world-class resort

In the 1960s Pattaya was a quiet fishing village. Everything changed in 1961 when American servicemen from U-Tapao base began coming here on leave. Within a few decades the village grew into one of the largest resorts in Southeast Asia, with a population of over 120,000.

02

Sanctuary of Truth — a marvel built without a single nail

The Sanctuary of Truth is a 105-metre wooden temple under construction since 1981, built entirely by hand without a single nail. Every square centimetre is covered in carvings depicting the mythology of four Asian cultures: Thai, Khmer, Chinese and Indian. Completion is scheduled for 2050.

03

Nong Nooch — a botanical wonder

Nong Nooch Tropical Garden covers 240 hectares and ranks among the world's top ten botanical gardens. It holds Asia's largest collection of cycad plants and over 670 orchid species. Elephant shows and traditional Thai performances take place daily.

04

Walking Street — the street that never sleeps

Walking Street is a 1-km pedestrian strip that comes to life every evening from 18:00 until dawn. With over 100 bars, restaurants, clubs and cabarets, it is Thailand's best-known entertainment thoroughfare. Entry to the street is free.

05

Coral Island Koh Lan

Koh Lan, 7 km offshore, is the primary beach retreat from Pattaya. The ferry crossing takes just 40 minutes, and the island offers six beaches with clear turquoise water. Up to 20,000 visitors arrive at Koh Lan daily.

06

Floating market — trade conducted on the water

The Pattaya Floating Market is one of the largest in Thailand. More than 100 vendor boats on the canals offer street food, fruit, souvenirs and handcrafted goods. The grounds are divided into four zones representing the regions of Thailand.

07

Tiffany's Show — a legend since 1974

Tiffany's Show is the oldest cabaret of its kind in Asia, operating since 1974. The production — featuring elaborate costumes, choreography and live vocals — regularly fills its 1,000-seat auditorium. The show has received numerous international accolades.

08

Buddha Hill and the bay panorama

Atop Pratumnak Hill stands an 18-metre gilded Buddha statue — the city's principal religious landmark. The observation deck offers a panoramic view of the entire bay, from Jomtien to Bali Hai Pier. Admission is free.

09

Diving Year-Round

Pattaya is one of the few places in Thailand where diving is possible 12 months a year. The nearby islands of Koh Lan, Koh Sak and Koh Krok offer dive sites with visibility of up to 15 metres. The sunken warship HTMS Khram is home to large groupers and barracudas.

What Our Travellers Say

★★★★★

Pattaya exceeded all expectations! Days on the fine beaches of Jomtien, evenings at the Tiffany's Show and a stroll along Walking Street. AMIST arranged everything perfectly, from the flight to the excursions.

E. Kovaleva charter “Pattaya,” January 2026
★★★★★

We travelled with children — the Ramayana water park, Nong Nooch Garden and Koh Lan island were a delight for every member of the family. The hotel in Jomtien was an excellent choice: quiet and with a children's play area.

A. and D. Petrov family tour, December 2025
★★★★★

A villa with a pool, a personal driver and dinner on a yacht — this was the finest holiday of my life. AMIST knows how to deliver a genuinely premium experience.

M. Volkov VIP tour, February 2026
★★★★★

My first time in Thailand and I fell in love with it straight away! Clear sea around the islands, wonderful Thai cuisine and night markets. I will definitely be back.

T. Sidorova charter “Pattaya,” November 2025
★★★★★

The Pattaya + Bangkok combination was ideal! We relaxed by the sea in Pattaya and toured all the temples in Bangkok. AMIST took care of every detail.
