Things to do in Chonburi Province, Thailand: The Best Zoos & Aquariums

May 18, 2021 Brain Ambrose

Chonburi (Thai: ชลบุรี, RTGS: Chon Buri,  [tɕ͡ʰōn bū.rīː] ( listen)) is an eastern province (changwat) of Thailand. Neighboring provinces are (from north clockwise) Chachoengsao, Chanthaburi, and Rayong. To the west is the Gulf of Thailand. Chonburi is home to Thailand's largest tourist oriented city, Pattaya (also spelled Phatthaya), it is the only province outside the Bangkok Metropolitan Area to connect by an eight-lane motorway to Bangkok, 80 km distant. It is home to Thailand's largest and primary seaport, it has a thriving migrant and expatriate population. Due to these factors, the province's population is growing rapidly, with currently some 1.7 million residents (albeit with a large floating or unregistered population). The registered population as of 31 December 2012 was 1.36 million.

If you are in Pattaya, then don't forget to visit this place. This is very unique experience where you can stay inside with the big cats for approx 10 to 15 mins and click as many pics you want. They have three categories Big, medium and smallest. Since I had a kid with me, I wasn't allowed to buy tickets for big and medium cats for safety reasons. But I was allowed for the smallest categories and they were just 3 to 5 months old cubs. They were so cute and we were allowed to touch and pet them and clicked loads of pics. A great experience

Underwater World Pattaya

Reviewed By jomtienbeach - Jomtien Beach, Thailand

I am an American teacher and professor who has learned as a child as well as from children what helps them learn. Children want to learn what their parents and families like and make an effort to know. Elephants and flowers are the heritage of Thai children. Nevertheless, they should be shown the interest and fascination of marine life. California (USA) has the international venues of these interests and sciences. From San Diego to Eureka, the California Coast features many aquatic and marine habitats. Harbor seals, whale migration routes, Great White Sharks, maritime exhibits, Bodega Bay abalone sanctuaries are a small part of the state-wide activities of ocean life on display. But Pattaya is fortunate to have its Underwater World a short ride south on Sukhumvit Road. Although an adult, I take children to this wonderful learning venue whenever I can introduce them. They are bedazzled and amazed at what is displayed in the very interactive fish and marine exhibits.
