3. Wat Yansangwararam

Reviewed By hooman1020 - Tehran, Iran
Wat Yansangwararam (Locally known as Wat Yan) is a one of the most impressive temples in Pattaya. The temple is located approximately 20 km south of the Pattaya. The temple was built in 1976. Wat Yansangwararam is surrounded by clean gardens, massive lakes & several different architectural styles of buildings, that make the complex a nice & peaceful place. The contemporary design is the most remarkable characteristic of Wat Yan. Many unique architectural influences from India, China, Japan & Lanna can be seen here. Inside the main complex you can find a replica footprint of the Buddha & a large stupa that contains a many relics from the Buddha. The complex is usually quiet, so It's an interesting place for practicing meditation. Public transport is not available for going to Wat Yan, so you have to go there by a group tour or with a private taxi or a rental car. It's a good idea to rent a car and go to the Wat Yan by rental car, So you can discover many attractions of this part of the city such as Nong Noch tropical garden, Silverlake vineyard, Swiss sheep farm, Ramayana Water Park and Buddha mountain. It's located only about 10 minutes away from Buddha Mountain. Standing in a certain spot in the Wat Yan, you can see the Buddha Mountain in the distance. It's really worth a visit for discovering the quieter side of Pattaya. The complex operates (8-17).

Some days this gets swamped with tourists and other days peaceful. It is a nice temple on top of the mountain overlooking Pattaya. I live Khao Phratamnak and have the fortune to listed to the Monks chanting on all the Buddhist holidays. I think there are some good photographic opportunities here. At minimum, a view of the city and surrounding area. Depends on what attracts you are what you like.

10. Terminal 21 Pattaya

Reviewed By nortravel2013 - Medicine Hat, Canada
Terminal 21 is a mall known more for its visual delights than its many shops. Center Festival has better organized shopping. That being said, one can spend half a day admiring the stunning architecture and wandering along the twisted pathways to them b many interesting small shops. Two photographer's musts; the haunting night Eiffel Tower shooting skyward; the brightly lit Golden Gate Bridge disappearing from the upper view point to the lower levels. .
