A full kilometre from its high-tech gateway at the Beach Road end to the Bali Hai Plaza end, almost every building along its length is a nightclub, go-go bar, beer bar or restaurant. Each of the side streets – which span from Soi 14 to Soi 16, with a couple of uniquely-named streets in between - is more of the same, making the whole southern end of the city into a warren of nightlife entertainments, with something for practically every taste

It is a hive of activity, with endless day-trippers on the way to the nearby Coral Island (Koh Larn), as well as scuba divers, fishing enthusiasts and even private charter boat trips setting off or returning to dry land. The jetty stretches quite far out into the bay and is lined on either side with boats of all descriptions. It can be seen clearly from Pattaya View Point and has now become a classic image of Pattaya itself.

The huge image was established in 1977 and is often referred to as Luang Phor Yhai or Big Buddha by the locals. The hilltop location of the image also sets it apart from many other attractions in the city. A long stairway leads to the mighty Buddha image and various smaller images surround the huge masterpiece on the hill.

Budd Hill

Great view over the jomtien.Budda is in focus but it bears the touch of shop. Take the tour in the morning when there are only Thai who are in the area for prayer.

A tour with a reasonable price.

The duration of the excursion was most of the day, not half-day as expected. That said, the excursion was well worth the price. We saw the Big Budda, the Budda on the rock, the Floating Market, and the Sanctuary of Truth. The pace was excellent. Our guide explained everything to the group. Our driver was also excellent. We had sufficient time to take many photos.

Pattaya viewpoint

Was here many years ago over 20 years ago but didn’t have reviews back then. It is still a must for foreigners to do highly recommended.

Disappointed

Pickep up on time. No local tour guide except from the driver who didn't drop us to Pattaya city sign as he said no place to park. He only show us the viewpoint for few seconds while we are inside the van. Didn't go to Pattaya Central Festival beach as firstly mentioned on the package.
