Hotels; a Luxury Haven Set Apart From Pattaya
The Pattaya Story
It seemed like a century ago that Pattaya was just a tiny, sleepy fishing village located about 100km south of Bangkok. One of its only historical traits was that it was a resting place for the soldiers of King Narai in the 13th century. After they left, the town seemed to return to its sleepy tradition of fishing and more fishing, normality resumed until that is, about half a century ago, something happened that would change Pattaya for good. The Vietnam War.
Because of its strategic location, an airbase was setup just south of Pattaya and for the next few years became like for King Narai's men, a resting place for the US military. Thanks to its natural scenic beauty the whole area evolved into a place of recreation and resting; this changed the face of Pattaya and although the fishing boats are still there, tourism has replaced old with new. Nowadays the town is a booming tourism hotspot full of day and night excitement attracting tourists from all over. The old airstrip is now a bustling semi-international airport, trains run daily from Bangkok and of course the resorts are easily accessible by car. Hotels here range from budget style to some of the best in the world. If you are looking for attractions, excitement and shopping in Pattaya you will find plenty of it. Apart from the beautiful ornate temples located in the area, there's the Vimantaitalay submarine taking tourists underwater to view corals and marine life just a few kilometers out to sea. There are also boat trips leaving from Bali Hai Pier. And for a little quiet relaxation there is the Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Garden located 15 kilometers east of Pattaya. This 500-acre site has typical Thai forestry and vegetation plus an orchid garden. It also has a lively cultural show in a Thai village setting. Night life in Pattaya leaves nothing left to be desired, all you can see and do but especially recommended comes the Tiffany Cabaret Show with some of the most beautiful 'women' you will ever see anywhere. A must for any tourist visiting the region.
