Pattaya (meaning wind flowing from Southwest to Northeast) is located 150km from Bangkok and grew from an unknown small fishing village to a resort town after 1960s.
What attracts many to the town is the white sandy beaches of Pattaya Beach, Jomtien Beach and Coral Island.
Pattaya is more than a beach resort. There are many tourist attractions that are worth visiting for individuals, couples or family with kids. Interesting sites in the vicinity within easy reach are Phra Tamnak Hill, a vantage point to view Pattaya bay. Must-dos also include a cruise to Coral Island to view the corals, soak in the culture at Nong Nooch Village, see Sri Racha Tiger Zoo containing a largest number of Bengal tigers with numerous animals and interesting shows like pigs racing and check out the pig that can count!
