Located 150 kilometers southeast of Bangkok, Pattaya has long been regarded as the naughty little sister of the Thai capital. The massage parlours, go-go bars and discos have been the big attraction since the 1960’s, when US soldiers on leave from Vietnam would come here to let off steam. Take a walk down Walking Street in the evening and it’s clear that the nightlife culture remains the big selling point for Pattaya.

Walk to lookouts with spectacular views, enjoy myriad watersports and dine at waterfront restaurants at this lively beach on Koh Lan’s west coast.

The gateway to Koh Lan is a great place to enjoy some retail therapy, arrange trips to the island’s beaches and admire views of Pattaya’s coastline.

Witness an architectural masterpiece in the making which combines the religious symbols of South East Asia with centuries old craftsmanship.
