Meet Pattaya's most famous resident on this guided tour to Big Buddha Hill. This giant golden statue has dominated the city's horizon since 1977.
Big Buddha Hill Guided Tour
We'll collect you from your hotel at 9 am and set off to the highest point in Pattaya: the Big Buddha Hill, also known as Wat Phra Yai.
After a brief journey through the lush jungle vegetation of the region, we will arrive at the summit, where the biggest Buddha statue in the province of Chon Buri will be waiting. This figure, visible from anywhere in Pattaya, has become a city symbol.
Our guide will provide insights into the history of this landmark, known locally as Luang Phor Yhai, and will showcase other sculptures and artworks in the grounds. You will also learn about the temple project currently under development on the hill.
The Big Buddha Hill offers panoramic views of Pattaya and its coastline, where religion, art, and nature converge.
Before returning you to your hotel, we will visit the Gem Gallery, one of Thailand's largest jewelers, where you can admire a vast collection of precious stones and purchase a souvenir.
