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 will greet us. This statue is visible from any point in Pattaya and serves as the city's symbol.
Our guide will share the history of this landmark, known locally as Luang Phor Yhai, and will show you other sculptures and artworks in the area, as well as the ongoing temple project on the hill.
The Big Buddha Hill offers panoramic views of Pattaya and its coastline, blending religion, art, and nature.
Before returning to your hotel, we will visit the Gem Gallery, one of Thailand's largest jewelers, where you can view a vast collection of precious stones and purchase souvenirs.
