Big Buddha Hill Guided Tour

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, we will arrive at the summit where the biggest Buddha statue in Chon Buri awaits. This statue has become the symbol of the city and can be seen from any point in Pattaya.

Our guide will share the history of this landmark, known locally as Luang Phor Yhai, and show you other sculptures and artworks on site. You will also learn about the ongoing temple project on the hill.

The Big Buddha Hill offers panoramic views of Pattaya and its coastline, in a setting where religion, art, and nature intersect.

Before returning to your hotel, we will visit the Gem Gallery, one of Thailand's largest jewelers, where you can admire and purchase precious stones as souvenirs.
