Worship and enjoy the beautiful view at the Big Buddha Temple, Pattaya.

#PattayaTravel This time in Pattaya, we had the opportunity to go up to Wat Phra Yai or known as Wat Phra Yai Pattaya, located on Phra Tamnak Hill. This is because we had never been up there even though we have been to Pattaya many times. This temple enshrines the largest Buddha statue in Chonburi Province, Luang Pho Phra Yai, “Phra Phuttha Sukhothai Walai Chonlathar”. It is a large golden Buddha statue in the middle of the temple. It is more than 300 feet high and was built in 1977. Before reaching the Buddha statue, you have to walk up the seven-headed Naga stairs. What is special about this is that the stairs are not steep and are wide enough to walk comfortably. Even the elderly can climb the stairs easily. There are also many sacred objects to worship on top. It can be said that when you come up to this temple, you will be able to worship and make merit with peace of mind. Another important highlight of this temple is the view of Pattaya City from the temple’s viewpoint, where you can see the beautiful mountains and sea of ​​South Pattaya. Today, we went to worship in the morning and saw that many foreign tourists had started to arrive by bus. It was very lively. As for traveling to this temple You can take the route from Pattaya South Road, heading to Khao Phra Tamnak or the way to Bali Hai Pier, there will be signs all the way. Drive straight through the traffic light intersection to Khao Phra Tamnak, go straight for a bit, there will be a sign, drive straight up. Next time you visit Pattaya, don't forget to stop by to pay homage to the Buddha. It's really beautiful and impressive.
