Nong Nooch Garden, near Pattaya, is often recognized as one of the most beautiful gardens in the world—and when you visit, you will understand why. Set in 2.4 square kilometres of landscaped area, this space draws from both local and global influences. Gardens inspired by Stonehenge, orchard nurseries and lakes are as captivating as the traditional music and culture shows that happen alongside. Overlooking Pattaya and Jomtien from its seat atop a hill is another marvel—the soaring golden Buddha, known locally as Wat Phra Yai. Dating back to Pattaya’s days as a fishing village, the serene figure beckons multitudes of people each day, who offer their prayers amidst stunning views of the landscape. Surrounding the main figure are smaller Buddha statues, representing the days of the week and various facets of the Buddha’s life.
