It's probably been highlighted here before, many times, but I do recommend a trip to The Sanctuary of Truth to anyone visiting Pattaya. It's just a short 15/20 minute max drive from South Pattaya and you get access to a modern day take (building started in 1981) on ancient art and design. The central structure is made entirely of wood with carvings throughout of gods and goddesses from different cultures. You not only spend as long as you want wandering around, taking in the beauty of the place, but you also get to see the craftsmen and women working hard on producing new additions to the structure. It really is a beautiful place and the feeling of serenity (at least when there are no coach parties) is amazing and I came away feeling totally relaxed, not always a truism when sightseeing.
Included in the entry price is a dolphin show which was fun and entertaining and some thai dancing and music with food and drinks purchased separately. Total cost baht500.
For additional baht you can also ride a horse around the site, take a speed boat ride or seat yourself for a small trip in a horse drawn buggy.
I don't have pic's right now but will post some when I can, unless someone else here has pic's already posted.Similar Threads:
