Pattaya Beaches, Thailand

Pattaya beaches in Pattaya City, Chonburi is one of the most accessible vacation spots in Thailand and which also attracts more and more foreigners as time passes by, both visitors and expats.  My family spent a night there and we all had fun.  I also found HARD ROCK CAFE which is one of the favorite spots of the site's visitors.

Pattaya City is situated on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, approximately 165 kilometers southeast of Bangkok which is just within though not a part of Amphoe Bang Lamung (Banglamung) in the province of Chonburi.Just a glimpse to its history, according to Wikipedia, "for centuries, Pattaya was a small fishing village.  But a change occurred on April 26, 1961, when the first group of about 100 American servicemen who were fighting in the Vietname War arrived in Pattaya for relaxation.  From this beginning, Pattaya became a popular beach resort which now attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors.  Fishermen's huts along the beach were replaced by resort hotel and shopping malls.  Fishing vessels were adapted to become tourist boats."
