Situated to the Southeast of Bangkok – about 147 kilometers away – and looking towards the Gulf of Thailand, is Pattaya, a top tourist destination in Asia that attracts tourists from around the globe. Exuding a tropical aura, and offering lodging ranging from pricey and luxurious, to cheap and simple, Pattaya Thailand is filled with sporting opportunities such as fishing, scuba diving and golfing. There are bars, theme parks, museums, botanical gardens and temples to explore, making Pattaya Thailand a place that has something for everyone.

Districts of Pattaya Thailand

The side of Pattaya Thailand adjacent to the coast consists of five sub-districts, each of which gets its name from a beach section or seaboard cliff. At the center of Pattaya Thailand are the three principle sub-districts i.e. North Pattaya, South Pattaya and Central Pattaya Thailand; they are part of the main Baht Bus route, which means you can get to most tourist attractions from them in around 5 minutes. These three districts together are regarded as something of a downtown area. Flaking these are two further sub-districts: Buddha Hill and Naklua.

Its peculiar name owes itself to the fact that vehicular traffic is closed after 6 PM. Nearly all buildings on either side of Walking Street, and several of those in the streets connected to it, are beer bars, nightclubs, go-go bars, or restaurants. The street comes to life in the night, and is practically deserted during the day!
