Things to do in Central Pattaya

A colourful and lively place to visit in Pattaya. The floating market offers great local food, handicrafts, and a glimpse into traditional Thai culture. Worth visiting while in the city.

Visiting the Sanctuary of Truth was one of the highlights of my trip. The entire structure being carved from wood is astonishing, and the level of detail is beyond imagination. I was truly mesmerised by the vision and dedication of the people behind this masterpiece. A place that blends art, philosophy, and architecture beautifully. Definitely a must-visit. I was genuinely mesmerised by the vision of the founder who imagined and created such a magnificent structure

This place is definitely in the top 3 must-visit tourist destinations in Thailand. It's located in Pattaya, which is far from Bangkok, but it's highly recommended because you can get there by bus for about 600 yen one way in about 2 hours.

It's no exaggeration to say that this is a must-do if you're going to Pattaya. This time, I booked a one-way trip from Bangkok to Pattaya and took the bus back. The itinerary was roughly: 7 AM pickup -> Pink Ganesha -> Tiger Topia Sriracha Zoo -> Lunch -> Sanctuary of Truth -> Wat Khao Chi Chan -> North Pattaya Bus Terminal. After that, I bought a bus ticket, went to the Night Bazaar, and then took the bus back to Ekkamai. A word of caution for this itinerary: when visiting Pink Ganesha, you'll need to pay the driver an additional 1000 baht in cash, as it's not in Pattaya. Since there's no entrance fee for Pink Ganesha, it's not a huge concern, but those planning to go should be aware. The driver was very kind; even after arriving at each tourist spot, he would confirm directions, whether tickets were needed, and if our reservations were in order.

A must-go-to tourist destination in Pattaya! Spent long hours of transpo (bus) from Bangkok and it’s definitely worth it to see & experience this amazing gem in person

We traveled from Bangkok to Pattaya. We were picked up from our hotel lobby in Bangkok, and after that, we thoroughly enjoyed various activities! It was a trip for three—my 12-year-old daughter, my 18-year-old son, and myself—and we had a completely satisfying day without any worries! We were also able to capture wonderful memories with drone photography. I hope to go again someday!

A very beautiful temple, and an interesting tour. There weren't many tourists after 19:00, and we managed to take a lot of photos.

Had an amazing one-day tour from Bangkok to Pattaya! The ride was super smooth, and a huge kudos to our driver for being so nice and attentive. This tour is completely worth it if you’re looking to visit Pattaya even with limited time. Highly recommend!
