Stopped going when Indians started coming.
Too many Russians all over Thailand. Period. Ruining the place.
Yes you write lots gone up . However we stay nature view hotel soi Buakhao only gone up 100 baht in 5 years. The change I don't like is the arrival of more not violent but intimidating thugs . Not nice
PattayaSTAN
Fishermans village … looking at that, i get flashbacks to the architecture from the 1800's of Denmark, it's almost the spitting image of it.
Pretty sure that is what they where going for when they made this Fishermans Village.
Bars are sort of a dying breed now amongst the younger crowd. Many drinking far less than the old generations so definitely Pattaya will change. They will have to attract a younger crowd eventually instead of relying on very old ones
I love the look of that little village
Beach road needs a foot bridge over it at both ends, so tourists don't play dodgeball with traffic.
The good – so many places to eat authentic Thai food.
The bad – so many pot shops.
I first went to Pattaya about twenty years ago. It was definitely more laid back and while it could be crowded, the tourist demographics were different then and things were just better. Sorry, just saying.
I didn't go there during the pandemic of course and did make it there last summer. All I can say is it changed for the worse, especially walking street.
Thanks for the post. It strikes me as dystopian over-development, but I suppose some like that.
Pattaya has become so much expensiive …I find vietnam is affordable ..

I was there 50 yrs ago ! Bubble bath, massage and extras, 140 Baht or $7.00 US $ .The 100 Baht red notes we called them Love Notes.
Love your Energy. Head on straight and let the good times roll!
Very low crime to be involved in the skin trade in a poor country. What choices those girls have??
Pattaya the shit hole of Asia Thailand
What a clueless clown 😂😂
Fishing village in the 60s ! Welcome GIs $$$$ big baht explosion !
The Fisherman's Village reminds me of a Disney Frozen themed-village.
A bit more on Lucky Tailor please : Is this a super well known recommended place ?
Russians and Indians have destroyed it w me very sad to c how they treat the beautiful Thai people
I went to Central today to get a pair of shoes and decides to try Santa Monica Diner. The burger was really good, will go back. But the cokes are very small 2 = 1 and the service was weak. Since I have been away from Pattaya for 3 years and now I'm I have been back living here again since July. It's sad to see the level of rudeness from Thais has gotten bad at times. The Thais I have known for 6-7 years all say the same thing, that they miss the farangs from the old days that were more polite and kind. There seems to be a farang fatigue here now.
Cheers guys,
🙂
casinos ruined shiounokville
It's a playground…..just walk down Beach Rd and others in the eve. Would never live there. Water bad too😢
