Overall park itself was big and beautiful and elephants there were also impressive. Mobility service was also great convenience but.... too much dinosaurs even some are artificially created one... was... not really great. May kids are like this but not for adults tourists. If you feel tired by heat then visit BigC

Well one of the must visit place in Pattaya. You can visit here with your family or friends and spend some quality time. It is away from the main city ,you can book a cab or any group tour. But you can easily get Grab/bolt. This place needs your full day to explore. This place is good for childrens. Tickets should be book in advance.

If you are three lover and interested in knowing different varieties of tree plants, flowers, this is the place for you to go. It’s huge categorised in proper manner. Be ready to walk more. Spend time over there or else you can just take a tour from outside (you won’t be able to see much from outside). The elephant show place is also nearby, so if you are planning to go over there, then take little extra time to visit there as well. It can be a day affair.

The one of the best tour scene for foreigners. It’s not only the gardens, but there are so many artistic works on the walking zones. We encountered the heavy rain during the day which, however, we were dry due to covered sky gardens. The food in the cafeteria was good and the drink is perfect made. The dinosaur zone is vivid and educational. Amazing that I never saw such around the world. The best price, of course are comprehensive one in the world. In the addition the folk dance show as well as the elephant show are so well organized, and the elephants are well trained and so awesome in that and very entertaining. I would recommend to come next time with the kids or grandkids. Unfortunately, we don’t have enough time to finish all to comers. I highly recommend to everybody who stays few days in Pattaya.

For the show in the theater, only the first part of it worth seeing, showing about the traditional Thai provience clothing's and dance. The second part is some old pop song with fancy dancers. Other places of this garden is too big to walk, although you can take the sightseeing mini bus, but only you will see some concrete dino and animal statue. Food inside is good and cheap, no worries.

Amazing place with Art of Intelligence...... Its a suitable to all where you have cultural show , elephant show , park visit , various plants / trees , amazing art work advanced technology used for demonstration. ... Fabulous.... Amaong top 10 beautiful parks for a very good and genuine reason..... Must visit

As much as garden is impressive and I really enjoyed visiting it, I didn't realise they keep elephants on hand and they let people ride them. I cannot watch cruelty like that! I got really upset when I saw staff member training young elephant to be ridden on and was hitting it with a stick in the head. Poor animals so abused and frightened. Garden might be the most amazing, I post photos, but I will never visit it again. Not contributing to animal cruelty

A Peaceful Gem Above Pattaya – Wat Phra Yai Despite being one of Pattaya’s most visited landmarks, Wat Phra Yai remains a calm and peaceful sanctuary. The moment you begin your ascent up the stairs flanked by golden serpents, there's a quiet spiritual energy that sets the tone for the experience. The Big Buddha statue itself is impressive, but it's the atmosphere that truly stands out. Even with tourists around, the temple grounds are incredibly well-maintained and respected, allowing visitors to soak in the serenity without feeling rushed or crowded. One of the highlights is the panoramic view over Pattaya city and the bay – it’s absolutely stunning and well worth the climb. Whether you’re there in the early morning or closer to sunset, the cityscape offers a beautiful contrast to the peacefulness at the top. Don’t miss the chance to write your wishes on the wish tree – it’s a thoughtful and grounding experience, adding a personal touch to your visit. Whether you're spiritual or simply seeking a peaceful escape, Wat Phra Yai is a must-visit that offers both reflection and a deeper appreciation of #Thai culture. No ticket required. #ThingsToDo #Pattaya #Buddha

The Wat Phra Yai also called the Big Buddha Temple at pratumnak hills is a beautiful temple on a hill top in Pattaya. A must visit place if you are looking to learn more about Buddhism and its teachings. They have different statues of Lord Buddha depicting his various stages of life. The city view from here is mesmerising and so you can capture great pictures and make memories here. They also have souvenir shops right outside the temple and a place where you can borrow a Sarong in case you are in shorts as they don’t allow entry into the temple with shorts for the ladies and entry is free

You will be greeted by long stairway before reaching to the top. Once you reach to the top, you will be greeted by a handful of Buddhas in different forms. It is an interesting visit because not only you can have a chance to view all these unique looking Buddhas, but also a nice panoramic view of the city, which makes this an one of a kind experience.

Wat Phra Yai (Big Buddha Temple) another option to visit in Pattaya! 🛕 The 18-meter golden Buddha statue is impressive and offers a peaceful atmosphere. The hilltop location gives you beautiful views of Pattaya city and the bay 🌅. The temple is clean, well-maintained, and free to enter. Wear modest clothing and be respectful of the local customs. Great spot for photos and a quick cultural experience! 📸 Tip: No need to book this through agent, just take GRAB, easily available and cost effective.

Free entrance as it should be for a temple! All the rest of the temples are making a business out of the tourists. I would understand 3-5 euro for an entrance fee but less than 500 baht you don’t find anymore which is a huge amount! This one was luckily free and we did a donation of course. It has nice views up the hill and some small shops in front of it. Cover your shoulders and legs, covers you can borrow for free as well.

Make sure to cover your shoulders and knees. The temple and statues are incredible. There is an ice cream truck with flavoured waffle cones which were a total hit and so affordable! I highly recommend visiting here.

Definitely worth a visit! It's free and very pleasant; there were few visitors at midday, allowing me to take beautiful pictures and enjoy peace and quiet in the shade on a mezzanine level. Thank you!

I don't think it's suitable for families, but it's a good place for single people. It's fun. You can have a good time.

Once in a lifetime experience. If you are like me who does not drink and do that stuff, visiting walking st is a must experience and only a one time experience but if you love doing ADVENTOURUS thing and its a heaven for you😅😂

Walking Street is the true living of Pattaya at night time. It actives more after 22:00. Find many more activities on the street. Best clubs and bars are here. If you wanna go with a family or a group. Go before 21:00 and you can check out whole street essily. Most of the Club entries are free. Nasha, Jalwa and many more clubs are premium.

Best place for night life city

It’s maintained neat and clean with lots off clubs including russian, indian and other local clubs are there to enjoy with beautiful girls.

Best night life ever. You will find everything here. Girls, Bar, Massage, Beach, Dance, Private shows, Swimming pools. Night is the best for this street

Quite heppening street in patraya, Night clubs, Go Go Bars, Discos, Gentleman clubs..the vibe of this street is different..

The Sanctuary of Truth is absolutely breathtaking. The entire building is made of intricately carved wood, and seeing the craftsmanship up close is incredible. The guided tour was informative and helped explain the symbolism behind the design. The seaside location adds a peaceful atmosphere, and the photos came out amazing. There is some ongoing construction, but it actually makes the experience even more interesting since you can watch artisans working in real time. Overall, one of the most unique and memorable attractions in Pattaya. Highly recommended!

If you ever go to Pattaya, This place is a must visit. You may think it's just a temple but once you look at it with your own eyes, you will change your perspective about it. The art in the temple is commendable. Every inch here makes you wonder. Can't even imagine how they made it all the way. Most importantly they never used any concrete or civil joining items to make this temple, it's just wooden joint technique which holds this massive temple. Even 6 hours won't be enough to admit it's architecture beauty. Must must must visit place, never miss it.

Absolutely stunning! The Sanctuary of Truth is one of the most breathtaking places I’ve ever visited. The entire structure is hand-carved wood, and every corner has incredible detail and symbolism. It feels more like stepping into a living piece of art than visiting a temple. If you’re in Pattaya, this is a must-visit.

I would have given 4 starts if it was not so expensive! This used to be free as it should be for a place of worship and not exploiting the tourists. 500 baht is a very big amount! All the temples are using the tourists to make big money. I would understand reasonable entrance fee but 14 euro is too much! Also the staff is hustle and you are obligated to go via a tour guide and special hours with your chosen language. We preferred to see the place on our own and in peace. Also very expensive restaurant. They even charged us 10 baht for ice in our very overpriced drinks we bought. All the statues are half naked but people are obligated to cover up, this part we did not get at all.

Any trip to Pattaya is not complete if one doesn’t visit the Sanctuary of Truth Museum. It’s an astonishingly beautiful structure which is made entirely of wood and has wonderful sculptures and wooden carvings inside teaching the visitors the philosophy of life. One can also try out the Thai Traditional costume for an hour and take pictures. There are different activities within the vicinity of this museum that visitors can try like feeding the animals, horse riding, boating etc and also a number of cafés and restaurants to satisfy your food cravings, as well as a souvenir shop if one wants to buy souvenirs.

An amazing structure which is well worth the visit. A one hour tour but you could spend another 2-3 hours admiring the architecture and carvings. There are food stalls and foot massages available and an amazingly tranquil river next to the temple grounds to have a nice meal and drink while soaking in the atmosphere. It was quite a trip from Bangkok city but well worth the effort to view it. Only drawback is that they have animal rides in the form of horses and elephants and I feel sad for the forlorn looking animals made to serve so that their masters can earn some money. Temple wise - it's absolutely majestic. From the same people who designed the awesome White Temple in Chiangrai.

Must visit place in Thailand. Its completly built by wooden. Includes indian, chinese and thai culture and history carvings. I recomend every one to visit this. Entry fee is really woth and dont miss to wear full dress for ladis (Shoulders and knees should be covered) no shorts for boys (to wear full pant). If you come with short dress you will have to refundable deposit of 200 thb and get the cloth for boys and girls.

Such a variety of animals. Small but interesting! Highly recommended, for families with kids. There is lots of local/tropical animals as well as really special ones from Africa and the Amazon. The zoo is not really for profit and doesn’t really cost any money but sells animal food at reasonable prices , etc. I didn’t take photos of all of them.

Tiger Park in Sriracha is a great place to see tigers up close. The park is clean and well organized, and the staff are friendly and careful with safety. You can take photos with tigers of different sizes, from baby cubs to big ones. The animals look healthy and well cared for. It’s a unique and memorable experience, perfect for families and tourists visiting Pattaya or Sriracha. the place is not much crowded

ANY WILD ANIMAL WHO IS FORCED TO RIDE FOR ENTERTAINMENT (SUCH A BIKE?!) IS NOT A SAFE OR ETHICAL PLACE. These places operate on animal cruelty for their own monetary gain. Please do not engage with such places and put animal wellbeing first.

Great place for kids and even adults! Very spacious and clean. 100baht tickets only and best of all can use this to get the feeds for animals or photo taking. Kids had lots of fun!!

Very disappointed. Animals treated very badly (elephants chained, tiger hit). If you do go ask for ticket only 100bhat for adult, Free for children however they will try to charge you a lot at the entrance.

Good compact small farm. Highlight is to hold the little lion.

A nice mini zoo, the entrance fee can use as money to buy food and water along with food for feeding animals. The zoo is not that big, with a great atmosphere and many places to take a photo. You can ride a horse and elephants. The riding horse fee is 2 rounds for 200 Baht, 30 mins for 500 Baht. The coach is very nice and teaches a lot of tricks before riding.

The zoo is very pretty , fun and really big . Had an amazing time with my family . I recommend rent the golf cart which will make your trip even more exciting. Highly recommend to those who want to have close encounters with animals. You can buy feed for the giraffes, elephants , deer , capybara and experience feeding them . We had a wonderful day . Must visit 👍👍

Great zoo, a good place to spend the whole day. We bought a tour in Pattaya. Very huge territory. It's hard to understand on your first visit and impossible to walk around everything. Be sure to use the shuttles in the area or rent golf carts. I definitely recommend it! We fed lemurs, giraffes, elephants, rhinos, deer and a lion!

The entrance can be confusing as a foreign visitor. I prebooked a ticket on Klook, then had to redeem it at the small white house a short walk from the entrance. Then I could return to the entrance and turn in that receipt. Zoo is a bit run down but the animals are interesting! I walked but ran out of steam pretty quickly. The tram and golf carts look like great options because you can stop and get off and on frequently. Lots of bathrooms and snack places. Souvenirs aren’t great but they are available.

I only gave 3 stars as it states it's an Open Zoo, it is for some animals, but others are kept in cramped caged areas. You can rent a self drive Golf cart or small tuk tuk to get around (recommended) as it is spread out over a vast area, too hot and humid to walk around. There are public trams that make the rounds, you can hop on/off, but of course have no control of where you're going. Bolt taxi from Pattaya was around £5 each way, a bargain considering the distance. The carts and tuk tuks are also very cheap to rent.

This place is wildly fun! For the first half of it. You can rent a golf cart and zip around and for the second half you can take a vehicle to get from exhibit to exhibit. There is so much more there than just one adorable, fantastic, feisty little hippo. Go for Moo Deng, stay for everything else! So great!

One of the best zoos that keep animals feel at their homes. Although people are drawn by superstar Moo Deng, but this place has a lot to offer. You can spend one whole day comfortably and it worths your time.

It was a wonderful experience for me and my family. We rented a golf cart and explored the zoo at our own pace, enjoying the beautiful sights throughout the visit.

Ancient City is an amazing place to explore Thai culture and history in one spot. The park is huge, so renting a bike or golf cart is highly recommended — it makes getting around much easier. You’ll see replicas of Thailand’s most famous temples, palaces, and historic sites, all beautifully maintained. There are lots of spots for photos and you would require about 1-2hrs if you rent a vehicle.

Enjoyed my experience here today. Some thoughts: - THB800 entry fee for adult foreigners, reasonable when you see how extensive the site is. - Worth getting a golf cart if you’re not on your own (perhaps even worth it if you are there individually). The cart rental costs THB350 for the first hour then THB100 for every additional hour. It gets really hot in the afternoon and the shade the cart provides will make it worth while hiring. - The more impressive replica buildings are generally to the left of the site and the impressive recreation of ruins across Thailand are to the right. I suggest making your way to what’s your preferred style earlier in the day before the intense heat tires you. - Probably plan for at least 3-4 hours. If you want to see most of the attractions, it might take you the whole day.

This is such a magical place to visit. Although, quite far from Bangkok, if you do not have any other plans, you can stop by and explore the place. If you would like to explore by yourself, you can book for the golf cart or the bicycle. If not, you can book for the tram where it usually stops at each point and the driver would give a short description of each places. We bought our ticket online which is quite convenient. And its recommend that you brought some bottled water and hand fan as it can get hot. We went there in late October. There were so many things to see and take pictures for the insta 🫡 It can take up half a day if you're planning to go at each point. And there's some small restaurants if you're hungry. But unfortunately, no halal ones. So, if you're a Muslim, do eat before coming here or bring a small snack to fill your stomach a bit. Oh, but we bought an ice-cream before entering the place

Amazing place, but the elephants are a heartbreaking sight. The Ancient City in Bangkok is a beautiful and very well-maintained park where you can see replicas of Thailand’s most iconic temples and historic sites. The area is huge, so renting a golf cart is definitely worth it — it makes exploring much easier and more enjoyable. The only downside is seeing elephants kept there for tourist entertainment. For me, it was uncomfortable and sad to watch. The place itself is truly unique and worth visiting, but I wish animals were not used as an attraction.

Our first stop in Thailand, reason was we wanted to mostly take pics and IG worthy shots and skip the touristy downtown temples. Huge open Air Museum with lots of attractions, took us about 4 hrs to go around the whole complex riding a golf cart. I advise booking online for better prices. We booked through Kloook. 10/10

I only had couple of days in Bangkok and the Ancient City experience allowed me to get a good overview of the types of architecture, temples and learn a bit of the history. Lots to see and photograph. We hired a golf cart for ease of getting about, handy in the heat and random rain showers. Didn't try the floating restaurants (but read that they're good) but did have the iced coffee at the souvenir shop and it was strong and great tasting.

What a place! The amazing experience was that we could drive our own golf cart. Stop according to our likes. The place is massive. Even a whole day is not enough to explore this. We need places like this in India. The way they have built this place is mind blowing.

This is Bangkok's most important landmark 🇹🇭. After visiting the Grand Palace, don't miss this temple, which is featured on the Thai 10-baht coin. I was so happy to wear traditional Thai clothing. The interior is beautiful, and the pagoda is huge. Everyone comes here to take photos in traditional Thai clothing. You can rent traditional Thai clothing at many shops behind the temple, with prices ranging from 100 to 500 baht. Admission is free for Thais and about 100 baht for foreigners. Open time from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. If you've already visited the Grand Palace or Wat Pho, you can take a ferry across the river to this temple.

The Temple of the Sunset is a must-visit. It’s very beautiful and worth exploring to learn about its history. Originally, it was the first thing ships would see in the distance to know they had arrived in Bangkok. If you have time, go to the opposite riverbank and watch it light up at sunset—it’s a stunning sight.

I absolutely love coming to this place. From the narrow streets outside with all the super local spots, to inside at the temple. Its amazing and the energy is something to feel. Outside you can rent traditional Thai clothing to venture in and have photoshoots done (amazing experience btw). They have great food places around. You can access Wat Arun by car or boat (recommend taking the boat in atleast once). Traffic can get bad depending upon the time of day. At night this place is insanely beautiful viewing from a distance as its all lit up. Must see spot for sunrise and sunset. Bathrooms easily accessible. Entrance easy going and quick (you get a free water). I always visit whenever I am in BKK.

Beautiful temples and Chinese-Thai heritage. The stones, carvings, marbles, paints and colors are simply breathtaking. Had a beautiful experience. Bring e-fans, fans, umbrella and hats. Wear your sunscreens. Gets hot and crowded. Entrance fee for foreign visitors is BAHT200 each. **If you will not be in traditional thai costume, please be mindful of your attire.

We only experienced Wat Arun from the boat, but it still made a huge impression. The temple rises beautifully over the river, and the details on the spires are stunning even from a distance. It’s one of those places that instantly catches your eye. If you’re doing a Chao Phraya River cruise, make sure you slow down and really take in the view — it’s unforgettable. Can’t wait to come back and explore it properly!

We visited Wat Arun, a beautiful Buddhist temple located by the river. The architecture is stunning, and climbing the temple gives amazing views of the surroundings. The entrance fee is 200 THB per person. It’s a peaceful and culturally rich place, definitely worth spending some time exploring.

what a huuuge amazing temple! went there and experienced the thailand traditional costumes and took some pictures just how tourists did 😆☝️ 200bath for the entrance fee, very recommended to go there early morning or in the evening. the sun is no joke the other day we went for a cruise dinner and pasaing by the wat arun at night and its really beautiful pictures turned super good!!!

Wat Pho completely surprised us! From the outside it looks impressive, but once you step inside, you realise just how big the temple grounds really are. There’s so much to explore — from the beautiful pagodas to the peaceful courtyards. We also learned a lot while walking around. Wat Pho is actually considered the birthplace of traditional Thai massage, and you can see murals and inscriptions that teach about healing, meditation, and ancient Thai medicine. It’s such an interesting place if you enjoy culture and history. But the absolute highlight for us was the Reclining Buddha. I was honestly in shock when I saw it — it’s HUGE and absolutely stunning up close! The gold, the details on the feet, everything… it’s breathtaking and impossible to capture fully in photos. Definitely one of the must-see temples in Bangkok. Beautiful, educational, and unforgettable. Photos do not do it justice!!

The temple is first on the list of six temples in Thailand classed as the highest grade of the first-class royal temples. Wat Pho also spelled Wat Po, is a Buddhist temple complex in the Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok, Thailand. It is on Rattanakosin Island, directly south of the Grand Palace. Known also as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha,a 46 meters long and covered in gold. Its sheer size and serene expression are truly awe-inspiring, and no photo can quite capture the sense of peace and reverence you feel standing before it. The temple is breathtaking — rich with history, stunning architecture, and incredible detail in every corner. Wat Pho is also home to beautiful stupas, peaceful courtyards, and the birthplace of traditional Thai massage. The temple is considered the earliest centre for public education in Thailand. It houses a school of Thai medicine, and is also known as the birthplace of traditional Thai massage which is still taught and practiced at the temple. A few helpful tips for fellow travellers: * Go early in the morning to avoid crowds and enjoy a quieter experience. * Dress modestly — shoulders and knees should be covered as a sign of respect. Totally, a must visit place in Bangkok along with Grand Palace.

This beautiful Buddhist temple complex is worth at least two hours of exploration, as it offers far more than its famous Reclining Buddha statue, with many peaceful and interesting spots to enjoy. It’s best to visit in the early morning when the weather is cooler and the crowds are smaller. The grounds provide free drinking water fountains, free restrooms, and shaded areas where you can relax before continuing your visit. The temple is also the birthplace of traditional Thai massage, giving you the chance to experience an authentic treatment; a one-hour oil massage is recommended for deep relaxation, and it’s helpful to request a blanket because the air-conditioning can be quite strong. Keep in mind that tickets can only be purchased with cash.

A must-visit in Bangkok! Wat Pho is home to the impressive 46-meter-long reclining Buddha and beautiful temple architecture. The entry fee is just 200 Baht and includes a free bottle of water. The complex is peaceful, well-maintained, and full of photo-worthy spots. Go early to avoid the crowd and don’t forget to wear respectful clothing!"

Wow!! Amazing temple!! The most special and beautiful in Bangkok, you have to stop and go inside. The complex is amazing in its beauty. Even if you are in town for a day, you have to come here. It is simply amazing in its beauty and you can't miss it. The reclining Buddha is also amazing. We saw large Buddhas, but this is on a different scale, simply amazing. Breathtaking.

Another example of the artistic brilliance of the Thai people Built in the 17th century, this temple is still majestic and well maintained. There is a statue of Buddha lying down with one hand on his head, it is beautiful to see.There are many shops in this temple & They keep the bathrooms very clean. The only problem is that locals are allowed in for free but foreigners are charged 300 baht.300 Thai baht is not a big amount for Europeans because their national currency is powerful. But it's a burden for those coming from countries with weak currencies. Airfare from the country, hotel accommodation and money exchange. Tourists come here by spending money in many ways. The government should provide some concessions to them.

Very beautiful and big temple! Second time here and it amazes me just like the first time. The reclining Buddha was stunning. Wasn’t a line when we went, admission to the temple was affordable, only $300 baht. Cash only if you plan on going! They have clean restrooms. Be ready to take a lot of photos and videos!

The Grand Palace in Bangkok is truly a stunning place to visit! The complex is full of beautifully decorated, colorful buildings that are impressive in every detail. The entrance ticket costs 500 Thai baht, and although it’s one of the most popular attractions among tourists, the visit is still very pleasant and well organized. You can visit the entire area in about one to one and a half hours, depending on how much time you spend exploring each spot. In some buildings you must enter without shoes, so it’s a good idea to wear something easy to take off. Overall, it’s an absolute must-see — one of Bangkok’s most iconic landmarks and definitely not to be missed! 🌟

Visiting the Grand Palace in Bangkok is an experience that transcends mere tourism; it is a profound journey into the soul of Thai culture, history, and spiritual artistry. From the moment its majestic spires come into view, you know you are approaching something truly extraordinary. The intricate details that adorn every surface, from the gleaming gold leaf to the vibrant, mosaic-laden facades, are simply breathtaking and surpass all imagination. The undisputed highlight, and a sight that will remain etched in my memory forever, is the Temple of the Emerald Buddha (Wat Phra Kaew). The reverence and serenity within this temple are palpable. To witness the sacred Emerald Buddha, meticulously dressed for the season, is a humbling and deeply spiritual moment, even for visitors. The surrounding galleries featuring the epic Ramakien murals are not just decorations; they are a colossal and captivating storybook, depicting tales of good versus evil with stunning artistry. While the grounds can be crowded, its vastness allows you to find moments of quiet reflection in smaller courtyards. It is essential to dress respectfully, as this is a sacred site, but the effort is a small price to pay for the privilege of entering. Yes, this is one of Bangkok's most famous landmarks, but it completely earns its status. It is more than a collection of buildings; it is the living, breathing symbol of a nation. The sheer scale of craftsmanship and the palpable sense of history in every corner is awe-inspiring. Allocate at least three to four hours to fully appreciate its grandeur. A visit to the Grand Palace isn't just a check on a bucket list; it is an essential, unforgettable, and profoundly moving encounter with the heart of Thailand.

The Grand Palace is stunning and absolutely worth visiting. Even though part of it was closed for a royal funeral ceremony, the experience was incredible. The golden details, murals, and overall atmosphere are unforgettable. Dress modestly, arrive early to avoid crowds, and buy tickets only at the official entrance. It can get very hot, so bring water and take your time exploring. A true highlight of Bangkok.

It is undoubtedly the most famous tourist attraction. One of the most beautiful temples I have ever seen. Beautiful courtyards, a place with history. Entrance fee is 500 TН. Last entry time is just before 3:30 PM. I recommend you visit it before noon. You will see the brilliance, beauty and effort with your own eyes!

Definitely worth a visit. Get there early to avoid the queue and just ignore anyone outside offering to help. Do remember to cover up, long trousers or full skirt plus shoulders covered. Also try the queen's textile museum it's fascinating and would be a visit by itself anywhere else. You need about 3 hours to do it all.

There’s so much to take in here. The architecture is incredible, and the murals are captivating even if you don’t know their full story. Seeing some of the girls dressed in traditional outfits was a nice touch too. You could easily spend a couple of hours exploring the place. Tickets were easy to get on location.

I’m Bangkok people ,I visit this place almost 100 times hahaha never get bored every time that i come here.This place is a source of high-class Thai art inherited from the Ayutthaya kingdom period🇹🇭 everything is so beautiful that it’s called the city of angels. For practical information -Thai people (Free) just show ID card at entrance -Foreigner 500 THB/ person One important thing for visiting is that you must dress appropriately, especially for women don’t dress provocatively 😊

A wonderful temple complex! Very well maintained, because it is the religious place of the royal family. All the buildings are amazingly decorated, in bright colors, with extraordinary meticulousness. It looks like the palaces from childhood stories. Very crowded, rigorous control at the entrance, with scanners and military personnel. You need about 60-90 minutes to visit it, together with the Royal Palace (this is only the outside)

Wat Phra Kaew – Temple of the Emerald Buddha, Bangkok One of the most sacred and stunning temples in Thailand! 🌟 Wat Phra Kaew (Temple of the Emerald Buddha) is located within the Grand Palace complex and is truly breathtaking. The temple houses the famous Emerald Buddha, and the intricate details on the walls, roofs, and statues are mesmerizing. Entrance fee to the Grand Palace is 500 THB, and modest clothing is required — shoulders and knees must be covered. Sarongs are provided if needed. 🧥 The temple is very clean and well maintained. Photography is allowed in most areas, but respectful behavior is mandatory. 💡 Tip: Visit early in the morning to avoid crowds and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. Don’t miss the chance to admire the golden decorations and murals telling Thai legends.

The Temple of the Emerald Buddha is one of the most stunning and spiritually significant places to visit in Bangkok. The moment you enter the complex, the level of craftsmanship and detail is breathtaking. The golden structures, intricate mosaics, and beautifully maintained grounds make the entire area feel special and deeply meaningful. The Emerald Buddha itself is much smaller than I expected but still beautiful. The atmosphere inside the temple is quiet, respectful, and serene, giving you a moment to pause and appreciate its cultural and religious importance. Even with many visitors, the environment still feels calm and well managed. The complex is spotless, well organized, and easy to navigate. Staff are present to guide guests and ensure the dress code is followed, which helps maintain the dignity of the space. It is worth taking your time here because every corner has something beautiful to see. Overall, the Temple of the Emerald Buddha is a must-visit landmark in Bangkok. It is visually stunning, historically rich, and offers a peaceful experience right in the heart of the city. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to appreciate Thailand’s spiritual and artistic heritage.

Visiting the Temple of the Emerald Buddha, or Wat Phra Kaew, within the Grand Palace complex, was the single most profound and memorable experience of my entire trip to Bangkok. To call it a "tourist attraction" feels almost inadequate; this is the spiritual heart of Thailand, and you can feel its sacred energy the moment you step inside the temple grounds. The anticipation builds as you walk through the majestic white walls, and then you see it—enshrined high upon a golden pedestal within the magnificently decorated ordination hall, the Emerald Buddha is a vision of serene and powerful beauty. While its size may be smaller than one might imagine, its presence is immense. The sheer reverence in the air is palpable, with hundreds of visitors sitting in quiet contemplation, united in awe. Learning about the ritual of the three seasonal gold robes, changed by His Majesty the King himself, added a deep layer of cultural significance to what I was witnessing. This isn't a static artifact; it is a living, breathing part of Thai monarchy and faith. The intricate craftsmanship of the gilded garuda and nagas that surround the statue, combined with the dazzling interior murals, creates a setting fit for a national treasure. The entire temple complex, with its gleaming chedis and mythical statues, feels like a celestial city. It is essential to dress modestly out of respect, and I highly recommend going early to fully absorb the atmosphere before the largest crowds arrive. The experience is humbling and transcendent. It’s more than just seeing a famous statue; it’s about connecting with the soul of a nation. The image of the Emerald Buddha, bathed in light, is one I will carry with me forever. This is an absolute, non-negotiable must-see for any visitor to Bangkok.

One of the most impressive temples in Thailand and an absolute must-see in Bangkok. The architecture, detail, and atmosphere are breathtaking. It can get very crowded, so it’s best to visit early in the morning. Despite the crowds, the experience is unforgettable and truly showcases the beauty of Thai culture and craftsmanship.

A breathtaking temple complex. The whole area has incredible buildings, some are not open to the public but you can still walk around them and enjoy the facades and architecture. Like any other Buddhist temple you need to take your shoes off to visit the Emerald Buddha which is magnificent.

Visiting the Temple of the Emerald Buddha was one of the highlights of my trip to Bangkok. The temple is stunning, with its golden details, colorful murals, and peaceful atmosphere. Seeing the Emerald Buddha itself felt very special, even though the statue is small compared to the grand surroundings. It was quite crowded, and strict dress rules are enforced, but the beauty and spiritual significance of the place made the experience unforgettable.

This is the party place who like to enjoy everywhere live music DJ and beer bar I highly recommend for young people

Great to place experience bangkok night life. I had some pad thai on the street food - it was so good!!!

One of the best place in the world for night life. Lots of shops, restaurants, live music bars and pubs, street food, massage center. Very much happening.

Thai culture experience. The food we ate was tasty, I expected spicy food but it wasn't spicy at all.

Best place for nightlife, but can get crowded sometimes. Amazing streetfood too.

. . . absolutely incredible vibe along the many restaurants, bars, massage boutiques, etc Recommended for it's great ambience . . .

resterants cheap and one i went to had great food and fast to serve, however the tourist shops are a ripoff compared with other markets, so much smell on street of weed, quite off putting...def wouldnt take children there. all the humans in this area had the 1000 yard stare-Zombie land

Worth to spend a day specially for kids. Much more cleanness needed by authorities near and around animal cages & living area. International buffet good for Thai & Chinese cushion only. Inside every fun activities are sold for tickets. Thats ok for funding. But flexibility is essential as money is not everything. 95% Staff attentive for all events are the best human resources there. Very active & innovative. One of Asian pride 👑️ Sawasdee🙏

Safari World is a fun place to spend a day, especially if you enjoy animal shows and light adventure. We were able to watch the Spy War, dolphin, and sea lion shows, and each one had its own entertaining moments. The bus tour was also a nice way to see different animals up close without too much effort. One of the highlights was feeding the giraffes, which was simple but memorable. The weather was good, so lunchtime wasn’t too hot, and there were shaded spots to rest. Just be ready for a lot of walking since the park is quite wide. Overall, it’s a good experience for families and friends who want a mix of shows, animals, and easy sightseeing.

Safari World Bangkok is a fun-filled, family-friendly adventure! 🐯🦒🚗 The drive-through safari was an unforgettable experience — lions, zebras, giraffes, and more, roaming freely around your car. The Marine Park is packed with entertaining shows — from dolphins and sea lions to cowboy stunts and Hollywood action. It’s well-organized, clean, and perfect for kids and adults alike. Food options are good, and there are plenty of shady spots to relax. Highly recommended for a full day of wildlife and fun.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing Experience at Safari World & Marine Park, Bangkok We had an amazing experience, especially at the Marine Park — all the shows were absolutely fantastic! Most shows happen twice a day, so plan your visit accordingly to make the most of it. Every show is worth your time and perfect for families. For better ticket prices, book through Agoda or other online travel portals — they usually offer great discounts. If you plan to visit Safari World, note that you can either drive your own car through the park or pay 100 Baht per person for the safari bus (in addition to the admission ticket). The safari itself takes about 30 minutes — it’s nice but don’t expect the kind of up-close tiger encounters you might see in promotional pictures. If you’ve booked a ticket with lunch included, you’ll enjoy a buffet meal at one of their restaurants. The lunch was really good — they had separate counters for vegetarian and non-vegetarian food, which we appreciated. For feeding animals, the prices vary from 100–300 Baht depending on the animal. Restrooms are available at many places inside the park, which is convenient. A small tip — bottled water (500 ml) inside costs around 30 Baht, so it’s better to carry your own bottle. You can refill it during the buffet lunch. They played 2-3 indian songs during dolphin show. Overall, don’t pay too much attention to negative reviews — it’s truly one of the best one-time experiences you can have in Bangkok, especially for families and kids. Highly recommended! 🌿🦒🐬

We went on a group tour. Well this place is good for children and adults with 4 different shows that happen everyday (chimpangee, dolphin, sealion and elephant show). It takes you whole day. Giraffe feeding was 200 bhat each and taking a picture with eagle was 400 bhat each. We were fed indian buffet lunch(not recommended). We eneded up eating outside the buffet as it was very much unorganized. The resturants are all animal themed. The safari world is where you drive with you van or car inside a protected area. We did not enjoy it. However we got to see tiger, bear and more animals. The zoo was supercrowded as many tour groups and students from school were there when we visited. An okish experience.

My recent visit to Safari World Bangkok was, without a single doubt, one of the absolute highlights of my trip to Thailand. From the moment we arrived, the excitement was palpable, and the entire experience far exceeded our already high expectations. This isn't just an attraction; it's a full-day immersion into the wonders of the animal kingdom, brilliantly split into two distinct and thrilling sections. We began our adventure with the iconic Safari Park drive-through. It felt surreal to be driving through expansive landscapes with majestic giraffes gracefully wandering past our windows, herds of zebras and antelope grazing peacefully, and powerful lions lounging just a few meters away. It was like being transported directly to the heart of an African savanna, all while being in Bangkok. The animals appeared healthy, active, and well-cared-for in their spacious enclosures. After the drive, we entered the Marine Park, which is a vibrant hub of activity. The shows here are nothing short of spectacular. The Dolphin Show was a beautiful display of agility and intelligence, while the Spy War stunt show had our entire group on the edge of our seats with its high-octane action and incredible special effects. However, the most magical moments were the interactive encounters. Feeding the gentle giraffes, who eagerly yet politely took lettuce leaves right from our hands, was a heartwarming and unforgettable experience that we captured in countless photos. The park is impeccably clean, the pathways are well-signposted, and the staff are consistently friendly and helpful. We spent a solid eight hours here and still felt like we could have seen more. Safari World has masterfully created a perfect blend of education, conservation, and pure, unadulterated entertainment. It is worth every baht and every minute of your time. I cannot recommend it highly enough for families, couples, and solo travelers alike—it’s a true gem and a must-visit destination in Bangkok

A wonderful place with many animals to see, including tigers, zebras, and many more. The Terrest Giraffe experience is definitely worth it, but do note there’s an additional charge. And don’t miss the dolphin show, it’s absolutely fantastic! You can get all the tickets on the Klook app.

We visited Dream World with a Super Visa pass — perfect for kids but equally fun for adults! 🎉 The park has around 42 exciting rides, including the Hurricane and Vikings (my favorites!). Some rides had a small queue (10–15 mins), but totally worth it. Tip: Take breaks between rides to avoid motion sickness — doing rides back-to-back made us feel a bit sick. 🤢 One of the highlights was Snow Town ❄️ — our first time experiencing snow! No queue at all, and we were given jackets and boots before entering. Inside, it was freezing cold, and we had so much fun making snow figures, catching falling snow, and taking photos in beautiful snowy spots. 📸 The park is super clean, full of food options, shops, and fun activities. Once inside, we felt like kids again! 👶✨ Highly recommend for families, groups, and adults who love childlike fun. ⭐ Rating: 5/5 – A must-visit in Thailand!

Nice place to visit for rides and a full on theme park vibe. Ideal for kids and adults both. Has some exciting rides with thrills. A decent lunch buffet can also be purchased but plenty of other stalls to buy sbacks and food from as well. Weekends are crowded. Ticket counter opens by 10am. Make sure to be there on time and start with the rides located at the back of the park so that you can start before the crowd comes. Rides seem a bit old but maintaned well. Best to buy tickets online as the price is better. For Snow town jackets and boots are provided. Overall fun experience for a good value.

We just spent the most incredible day at Bangkok Dream World and I cannot recommend it enough for families! Forget any outdated reviews you might have read; our experience was nothing short of magical from start to finish. We visited on a sunny Monday, and while there was a cheerful buzz of energy, the lines for most rides were incredibly manageable. The moment you walk through the entrance and see the iconic castle and colorful storybook buildings, you feel transported to a real-life fairy tale. The park is immaculately clean, and the staff throughout were consistently friendly, helpful, and full of smiles, which really added to the positive atmosphere. There was the perfect mix of gentle rides, like the spinning cups and the delightful boat ride through Snow Town, and more thrilling adventures for our eldest, who braved the Viking ship and the super fun log flume—be prepared to get wet! The absolute highlight for all of us was the suspended roller coaster. It was an adrenaline-pumping blast, smooth and exhilarating, with fantastic views of the park. We also loved the cable car; it was a peaceful way to see the entire park from above and plan our next move. We met several costumed characters who were playful and engaging, and the photo opportunities around every corner are endless. We enjoyed a great lunch at one of the food courts, with a wide variety of tasty and affordable Thai and international options to keep everyone happy. Bangkok Dream World far exceeded our expectations. It’s the perfect size to explore in a day without feeling rushed, it’s beautifully maintained, and it offers a wonderful balance of excitement and charm. It’s a hidden gem that provided us with priceless family memories. We will absolutely be back! If you're looking for a fun, wholesome, and utterly delightful day out with your family, look no further.

A very big and tallest Buddhist Pagoda in the world, it is about 127 meters high, and very old historical monument which worth a visit if you have a free day and like a short travel that is not too far from Bangkok. It is 57 km. west of Bangkok. The gold Pagoda is very eyes catching from the distance. It is beautifully built with a great sense of peace. The surroundings areas is quiet not too many people. But it will get busier when the night foods market starts. The market offers very good freshly cooked and ready cooked authentic Thai food with plenty choices of fresh meat and seafood, vegetables, fruits and desserts. The entry fees to the Pagoda is 60 bath for foreigners but very often that there is no body sitting at the office to take the money, so count yourself a lucky day! If you can't find anyone in the ticket office.

Beautiful and peaceful temple with the stunning golden stupa that’s a true landmark of Nakhon Pathom. The area is clean and spacious, perfect for walking and taking photos, and parking is quite easy unless you visit during a festival. In the evening, the place comes alive with street food and a lively night market — don’t miss the crispy pancakes, shrimp cakes, and refreshing herbal drinks. A great mix of culture, spirituality, and local flavors all in one spot! Drive a bit away from the temple there are plenty of proper nice restaurants by the river too.

Today is 22 November 2025 which is also our 2nd wedding anniversary 🙏🏻 The weather is sunny but it’s cool and windy in most of Thailand. This temple area is clean & peaceful. A beautiful place to come and be at peace. Ample car parking spaces. Toilets are available. Come and explore this temple. We had a wonderful time here 🙏🏻⭐️

*No need buy ticket if you're lucky when the office staff didn't sit at the counter.* The total height of the building included top of its spire reaches 120.45 meters, with the base circumference of 235.50 meters. Phra Pathommachedi is the second tallest stupa in the world. The origins of Phra Pathommachedi have no historical record, but according to Subhadradis Diskul, a prominent Thai historian and archaeologist, Ashoka, an Indian Emperor who ruled almost all of the Indian subcontinent from circa 269 to 232 BCE, sent prominent Buddhist monks to expand Buddhism in Suvarnabhumi including the area that is Nakhon Pathom in the present day. A Buddhist temple, Wat Phra Pathom, had been established around the year 325 BCE, and the stupa had been built around the year 193 BCE. The stupa is first mentioned in Buddhist texts of the year 675, however archaeological findings date back to the 4th century. So this temple might be has 1500~1700 year, but from what I observed the tree surrounding this stupa only live 100~200 years or more, so not sure when this stupa built.

Beautiful and peaceful place with stunning views. Weather can be quite hot depending on the season, so best to prepare accordingly

Majestic and imposing, Phra Pathom Chedi is an ancient Buddhist stupa located in Nakhon Pathom, and is one of the most iconic and monumental Buddhist sites in Thailand. Standing at over 120 meters tall, it is considered one of the tallest stupas in the world. With origins dating back to at least the 4th century BC, it is believed to be one of the oldest temples in Thailand. Our visit in November coincided with the Phra Pathom Chedi Fair, an annual event held during this period, though the exact dates vary each year. During this popular festival, a large market adjacent to the temple offers a diverse array of food, beverages, Buddhist paraphernalia, and goods. The festival market opens in the morning, and we visited in the early afternoon. The temple marks the site where Buddhism first arrived in Siam from India. We bought some offerings and, after praying to the Buddha, we donated to support education for underprivileged school students. We concluded our visit by receiving a bottle of blessed water in the shape of the stupa for our family to use for bathing.

A huge and beautiful Pagoda which can be seen from far away.The temple is like many others very peaceful and calm.In the front are a lot of street vendors selling various kinds of things like food,drinks and clothes.The inside of the pagoda is only open during special events and is otherwise closed.I did not have to pay for a ticket even though I’m a foreigner.You have the option to donate and get flowers in return.It’s only quite nice to see the pagoda during night time.The traffic around this area can be very stressful though so the careful on when you go.

This place is full of history and has such a relaxing atmosphere. Walking around the ruins feels like stepping back in time, with every corner showing something interesting. The Buddha head in the tree roots is very unique and even more impressive in real life than in photos. It’s a beautiful spot to take pictures, learn about the past, and just enjoy some quiet moments away from the busy city. Definitely worth a visit.

One of the most famous temples in Ayutthaya, renowned for the most photographed Buddha head encased within the tree roots. Legend has it that a thief had intended to sell the Buddha head but was either forced to abandon it at the spot or the head was too heavy for him to carry further away, and so he had to leave it there. Over time, tree roots began to envelop the Buddha's head, and hence, this peculiar and unique landmark was formed. One can pray to the Buddha Head, but you must kneel and remove your shoes to show your respect.

A must visit in Ayutthaya City. It costs 80 baht for foreigners and 10 baht for Thai people to enter. The main attraction is the Busddha in the tree, but there are plenty of chedi, prang and other Buddha statues about. Talk a walk around Thai history and enjoy.

Nice ruins with some monks here. 80 bht entry for tourists, most ppl come to see the head in the tree. Cannot climb main large building as you can in the ruins next door.

We visited Wat Mahathat as part of a group tour to the ancient city of Ayutthaya. It is a fantastic place that is full of history. It was the capital prior to Bangkok but was completely burned down by an invasion in 1767. This place just oozes history and it is a great day trip on a visit to Bangkok. It's about an hour or hour and a half by car or there are many daily trains from Bangkok that take one hour and are very cheap. This is also where you can see the buddha head that has been surrounded by the roots of the sacred banyan tree. You should definitely try to make the time if you're in the area. There are a number of other sites only five to ten minutes away also.

Beautiful place to visit. The Buddha head entwined in the roots of the tree is a must-see and truly a unique sight. Take your time to walk around the grounds, the peaceful atmosphere makes it worth exploring.

The remnants of the Ayutthya Kingdom. The Ayutthya Kingdom was one of the most thriving dynasties of South east asia before it was attacked by the Burmese Konboung dynasty. Wat Mahathat is one such remnant of the Ayutthya dynasty. The entry ticket is 50 baht for non thai national and dress code mandates covered shoulder and knees. There are a few gifts shops right beside the ticket counter where one can rent a scarf or trousers. The place is spotless clean and serene. One can feel the calmness and peace in the air. The place definitely lives upto the hype and is a must visit spot in Ayutthya. The Buddha head in the tree is the top attraction here. But the crowd here is well managed and everyone gets a chance to take a pic. Do carry umbrella and water while visiting. Late afternoon is the best time yo visit

Great site to visit! Not super busy during the weekday. I would say, it gets really hot in the afternoon so I would suggest going early morning or late evening. Wear walking shoes because there are several steps, but you can also get dropped off at Gate 4, to avoid the long stairway. We walked the stairs up and had our driver take us back.

Visited in March 2025, the ruins themselves are quite small, not much information given about them, only takes 10 minutes to walk around and glance inside (nothing of note inside). Main attraction of course are the monkeys, pretty cool to see them around the temple ruins. In my experience not aggressive at all as some have suggested, mainly ignore you or if anything are shy, tend to run away if you're within a metre of them. They give you a stick at the entrance, hope nobody actually beats them with it...

Cool ancient ruins of a Buddhist temple. Popular IG spot for both visitors and locals of Lopburi. Not necessary to pay the entrance fee as you can see it from the road, unless you want to pay 5x the price as locals to have a closer experience with the monkeys.

An ancient Khmer-style temple and one of Lopburi’s most iconic landmarks. The three connected prangs represent the Hindu Trimurti — Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva — and were later transformed into a Buddhist sanctuary. Not as many monkeys as before, since most of them have been relocated by the municipality, but you can still see some around the area. It’s now much calmer and easier to walk around without worrying about mischievous monkeys. We visited around 4:30 PM, and the temple looked stunning in the soft golden light. The weather was pleasant and not too hot — it gave the place such a cozy, peaceful feeling. The entrance fee for foreigners is 80 THB. Parking is available nearby, and the site is easy to explore. Take less than 30 mins to stroll around and take a bunch of photos. A wonderful stop to admire ancient Khmer architecture, history, and serenity — especially at sunset. 🌅

The most popular landmark of Lopburi and the most lovely animal of the province, monkeys. Went there in May 2025 and they said that most of monkeys were relocated. The monkeys are really cute but they can be a little bit snatchers. You should be extra careful and listen to the officers. Keep all your accessories in your bags. All of the small and shiny things should be put away from their sight including glasses, phones, car keys, keychains, bracelet, necklace and earings. Once you loose it, you never get it back. Please love the monkeys and be kind to them.

One of the famous landmark in Lopburi province. It was a special place for me to visit. The weather was awesome no crowd at all. They take care of the place in a good way. The ticket price is 80THB for foreigners. A good place to visit if you love history.

Oct 2025 Last visited in 2022. There were a lot more monkeys roaming around then.

Excellent site well maintained. You can hire a bicycle or have a trolly car for large number. Nice food stalls very authentic Thai food. Vibrant space with boards in English and Thai Chinese explaining the history. Some function was being prepared and lot of temporary wood stalls, decoration was being put up. Nearby Market also has a Wat excellent landscaping with water pond and place for feeding fish.

Oh my word! After the hideous colour-themed, spray-painted modern monstrosities of the temples in Chiang Rai, this place is an absolute dream. So many ruins of temples, pagodas, statues of Buddha, and other religious iconography all within a beautiful natural setting. A place of serenity, peace and calm. We hired bikes for 30 baht to visit the main site and used them for the rest of the day to cycle the bicycle trail marked on the roads leading to other temple ruins in the rural outskirts. You can use your ticket to go in and out as many times as you want. We went back for sunset. Can't understand why some people moan about 'foreigners ' having to pay more than nationals. It's less than £5 to visit an incredible place where you will easily spend more than a couple of hours. Less than a fancy coffee or a pint in London!! We only paid to get into the central zone - it's got everything you'd want to see within it.

Great place to explore. Many ancient temple ruins which can keep you occupied for hours if you want to stroll around the park, or hire a bike as many do. Or you can hire a golf cart type buggy, ask at the entrance, for 2-4 people that will drive you around the park with guided commentary or there are larger 12-14 seat buses that take you round the park. So something for everyone. We spent 4 hours there on foot and see everything in the central area. Just as we were leaving the lights were coming on so the park was looking very atmospheric. Other than the central area If you hire a bike you can see the rest of the area and follow the bicycle route, plenty more ruins to find, the shops and restaurants around its perimeter, and the streets come alive in the evening with food stalls. So you can end your day with authentic Thai food and sit on the grass next to the river and relax. Great time had 👍👍🇹🇭🇹🇭

An UNESCO heritage site about 60 kms from Phitsanulok. Very well maintained and covers a vast area. You can rent a push bike for Thb 30 and also choose from the electric vehicles if you are a bigger group. The grounds are superbly maintained. Entry per person is thb 200 per person. Washroom facilities available.

This is such an interesting place. I hate to be critical but I wish they told the story of the people though… I did not get the sense of what the city had been, who lived there, what their lives were like day to day. The museum has lovely artifacts, however it also does not tell the story. Maybe every Thai knows the story but coming from a distant land without knowledge of Thailand the story still escapes me. Perhaps an audio guide would be helpful or even signage at each point. I envision something along the lines of ( Sukhothai has been inhabited since —-, this structure was originally built in —- out of—- notice —- in approximately —— the structure was transformed into a — notice ——. In the years of —- the city was abandoned because of —— it wasn’t until the year of —- that the city was rediscovered —— today ——) what I really want to understand is how people were ruled, lived, worked and worshiped across time. The place is magnificent but I missed the story of the people who have lived there and that’s why I go. You definitely get an “Indiana Jones“ feel in parts.

We did the full circuit by bicycle so we could see everything, and it was absolutely worth it. Besides being fun, it really helps you make the most of your time and visit every corner of the site. The ruins are well preserved, and if you arrive early in the morning, you’ll not find many people around.

We enjoyed our visit over two days. We started with a day in the central area and then another day in the Northern and Western areas. Bicycles work great to travel between the Wat, there are so many to see. The central entry was 200 bat and 10 bat for a bike, very reasonable. The Northern entry was 120 bat and there was no ticket required for the western area.

Si Satchanalai Historical Park is very beautiful and peaceful. The ancient temples and ruins are well preserved and surrounded by greenery and in a natural setting. It feels less crowded than Sukhothai Historical Park, giving you plenty of time and space to really enjoy the atmosphere.

We had a fabulous morning at this historical park. The price for a foreigner is now 200 baht each. The electric bus costs 60 baht per person.

Yet again two tier pricing, expect as a foreigner for Admission you will pay 10 times the price of a Thai. 20Baht for Thai, 200Baht for foreigner. Apart from the price gouging the venue is well kept the historical Temples are quite a spectacle, November is nice and cool to explore the whole facility, allow four hours to cover most of the grounds. There are guided tours, bike hire or Trams to get around with Tram stops located throughout.

I would like to highly recommend a visit to anyone interested in ancient cities and temple ruins. The historical park is large with many trees, so it wasn't too hot while riding a bike in the park. It has a different feel from Sukhothai Historical Park. This place is a must-visit if you go to the Sukhothai area. However, public transportation may not be convenient.

Monday 6th October 2025: Another huge site that covers a few different locations Well worth visiting, give yourself plenty of tine fo visit the different locations on the site. Make sure you have water and shade with you once your inside.

Far quieter to the main Sukhothai historical park. If you’re on a road, highly suggest you make the journey here. Bike rentals are available for 30baht

Absolutely beautiful and peaceful. This place is like stepping into another time. Ancient temples, quiet tree-lined paths, and barely any crowds—perfect for a relaxing and meaningful walk. There are so many well-preserved ruins, especially Wat Chang Lom and Wat Chedi Jet Thaew. You can rent a bicycle at the entrance and explore the park at your own pace—highly recommended! The area is much quieter than Sukhothai Historical Park, but just as charming. Bring a hat, sunscreen, and some water. And don’t forget your camera—every corner is photo-worthy! If you're into history, culture, or just love peaceful vibes, this place is a must-visit.

An interesting and impressive display of magnificent structures. Plenty of various activities were performed. There were many visitors, some coming in tour coaches, while others flock in on foot or private transportation, to admire this marvel, or perform their rituals and prayers. The place was practically full of tourists that come from everywhere. Beautiful, and must see.

◽️Highlights & Must-Do: •Upside-down reflection of the stupa – Traditionally viewed inside the ordination hall (currently under renovation). You can still see it in the side viharn on the left; look carefully on the right-hand table once you step inside. •Circumambulation (Walking Meditation) around the stupa – The temple provides flowers, incense, and candles for offerings, for 20 THB for a donation. •Ancient Lanna murals – Located in an open viharn at the entrance, these are among the few surviving Lanna-style wall paintings in Thailand. •Bullet marks on the iron fence around the stupa, with interesting historical stories. 💰 Entrance Fee: 40 THB for foreigners.

On one hand it’s a must see of historical and cultural significance. On the other hand if you have limited time in Lampang it’s out of the way. A Grab from city center will cost you about 170-200฿ each way. Temple entrance fee for foreigners is 40฿ if the person collecting has change. The trip is about 30 min (over 20km) each way and you can see everything in less than an hour. So if you have 2 hours and 500฿ it’s worth going. Honestly it’s a bit underwhelming compared to other sights in Chiang Mai area. However, it is nice to stroll around and take in the ambiance.

A bit boring temple for tourist spot its have 1 of 12 chinese zodiac temple though. Though its not that bad to take picture and have a bit spot to take it. Its not around the city so need to spent 20 mins from city

Excellent place and great location. Wat Phra That Lampang Luang is an important historical site located in the ruins of the ancient city of Lampang. According to history, Queen Chamadevi once came to pay homage and has been renovating and repairing it regularly. It is considered an important temple of the city since ancient times. It is beautiful and has excellent architecture, sculptures, and paintings. It is the place where Phra Kaew Don Tao, which is highly revered, is enshrined.

Very lovely old temple and with google translate we could figure out what some of the prayers/blessings were all about. Some nice stalls and very friendly people all around. 40 baht visitor fee

Beautiful temple, well maintained and popular with locals. Well worth the detour on the way to Chiang Mai.

Easily accessible from the main highway in any direction with clear signs that provide visitors with the necessary information on what is what and where, in both Thai and English languages. The entire land layout is divided into sections such as the elephant show, elephant hospital, elephant rehabilitation, and so on. There was no entry fee to the place, however, there are tickets stalls for different events. Because it was midday and hot, nothing much was happening other than elephant back riding which we couldn’t do as it was too hot for us and the elephants too. Elephants back riding costs around THB 140 for a 10 minutes journey. There were small restaurants and coffee shop serving limited selection of local dishes too. Strange enough, the majority of the visitors were locals and it looked like we were the only tourists there. It was very quiet and looked semi deserted, but it should deserve better.

This isn't an elephant show or entertainment park. There are limited activities, all focused on the deep relationship between elephants and Thai people. I've seen many foreign reviews alleging animal cruelty and forced behavior. Do you really understand "Asian elephants"? This facility cares for both domesticated and wild elephants, and I believe their methods are appropriate for the elephants' well-being and natural environment. Please don't judge based on a limited or biased viewpoint.

When we entered the ticket booth, I saw an elephant next to it walking freely. I thought the elephant would have some freedom and would be taken care of. When we entered the park, I saw the elephants being chained with a small metal chain. They looked distressed and wanted to roam around of course. They showed monotone behavior (head swaying from one side to the other, even the little ones) which tells me they are not being good taken care of. Later we walked to the bathing area. The keepers would hit an elephant with the hook. I already wanted to go out, but then we just walked away. It's a shame that this is how elephants are being taken care of in a conservation center. Give the elephants some natural ground to roam around with an electric fence/natural barrier. The hook and so on isn't animal friendly at all. For me it was a waste of money seeing they profit of this kind of behavior.

We visited Thai elephant conservative centre on a weekday and arrived early, so the place was very quiet with hardly any other visitors. It made the experience feel even more special and personal. There are two elephant shows during the day — we watched the elephants painting and showing different skills such as pulling logs, dragging timber, and even playing sports. The highlight for us was definitely joining the elephant bathing at 13:30. It lasted about 20 minutes and was truly one of the most amazing experiences of our lives. Being so close to these gentle giants in the water was unforgettable. Highly recommended if you want a unique and meaningful encounter with elephants in Thailand! 🐘💦

I love elephants so wanted to see this place but it was a bit disappointing. The shows are only every 90 minutes or so and you need to check the times otherwise there's not much else to see. We missed a show but didn't want to wait for the next one so just got a bus to the elephant paddock. Most were chained and clearly stressed. Probably wouldn't go back

My visit to the Elephant Conservation Center near Chiang Mai was excellent and exactly what I hoped for. The atmosphere is noticeably peaceful , a huge plus if you want to avoid the typical tourist rush and chaos that can plague other spots. What struck me most was the large number of magnificent elephants and the genuine care they receive. The staff are truly friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about their conservation work, which made the experience feel very professional and informative. If your travel goal is a quiet, respectful, and less crowded opportunity to observe elephants, make this center your top choice!

The animal abuse was soil crushing. I’m so ashamed my volunteer group took us here. They would hit the elephants with metal hooks and they would cry out in pain. This place needs to be closed down permanently.

The third annual Light Festival at San Kamphaeng Hot Springs offers a modest but charming display, though it comes with some drawbacks. The main illuminated installations are visually appealing but limited to just a few key spots, which might leave visitors wanting more. The paths between displays are dimly lit and, in some areas, wet and uneven, so bringing a flashlight is a must for safety.Food options are disappointingly sparse, with only a handful of stalls, limiting choices for attendees. Navigation is another issue—there’s a lack of clear signage directing visitors to the event entrance, which can be frustrating. Additionally, the mandatory 40-baht parking fee feels steep, especially considering the rough, dark walk from the parking area to the festival grounds, where extra caution is needed due to the uneven terrain.Overall, while the festival has potential, improvements in lighting, signage, food variety, and parking logistics would make it a more enjoyable experience. For now, it’s a decent outing if you’re prepared, but it falls short of being a must-visit event.

There is differential pricing for foreigners and Thais in relation to the entry fee (100B/40B) and 1-hour massage (250B/180B). But the private hot spring room is 65B/person regardless of nationality. You can choose your experience and pay accordingly. The grounds are expansive so you can spend hours here. The open air foot massage was outstanding. Some of the facilities, like the private hot spring rooms, could use a facelift.

Packs of dogs fighting everywhere. The map is confusing. The place is not signposted and there are no friendly people around to ask. As foreigners we felt like we were out of place and being given strange looks. The fact that the eggs are cooked in the main spring really put us off. The whole place was not well maintained. The toilets were not good at all. The smell of rotten egg was everywhere. It was overpowering and sickening to the point where we felt like we could not breath. I would not recommend this place to tourists at all. Find a hot spring that does not allow people to cook in the same water people are going to be bathing in.

The mineral pool is nice and it’s not super expensive, it does feel a bit wrong that you pay to get in and then pay for everything, even the mineral pool which I feel is why everyone comes so no need to charge separately, it would feel better to incorporate that into the entry fee. It also feels like a bit of an abandoned place with some areas really not being very nice

Interesting, for a brief visit, if only to see the evidence of volcanic activity . The main attraction is egg boiling, and soaking legs and feet in the hot water. There is a swimming pool and play area for children, and food and drink for sale.

Very nice and peaceful hot spring. Well maintained, clean water, and good for family or friends. Worth visiting if you’re in Chiang Mai.

Visited this park way back and it was a great outing. The ambience was lively and although the sun was scorching, there were many trees that provide shade everywhere. I love soaking my legs in the shade by the hot spring river!

What a fun experience. If you've ever done any night market you'll know what to expect here. Vendors, food, and music. It definitely was more tourist than locals, but the vibe was still high energy. The street food was delicious. I didn't do much shopping as I went solely for the immersion. There are a lot of people moving all over the place so if you have children, keep them close. As adults we got separated. A good time was definitely had.

Markets for days. One of the best in Thailand. Friendly vendors. Realistic prices, not pushy at all. Great experience. Food options were also delicious. Plenty of different stall instead of the same thing over and over. Give it a go. You won’t be disappointed.

I bought a high quality crocodile wallet that would be at least $150 anywhere else. At the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar I got it for 950TB - $29. Crazy… Also bought two zipperless pieces of luggage (carry-on and medium) for $42. My wife got Thai pants for all her friends in Florida for 100 TB - $3 US. Great deals nice people good value. Recommend

Big market, not cheap (compared to another markets) but negociable prices. Spread over several streets and covered areas (in case of a rainy day), it is very crowded and the stalls are repetitive. There is an area of food stalls (cheap and tasty) and a seating center with benches with background music from a singer or recordings - music that is pleasant to the ear. Public toilet, disabled friendly fot 5 baht. There are nice "cabaret shows" free entrance but must order drinks not expensive, nice attraction for a few hours on the go.

We visited several night markets in Chiang Mai, and this one was definitely the best. Very huge. It has many offshoots spread across different buildings and streets, offering a huge variety of food and things to buy.

Many different kinds of food available. Some better than others. All very affordable. Muay Thai fights also happen here regularly. We went and saw an event and it was impressive and enjoyable. And, of course, affordable. Great! There are many stalls to buy souvenirs or clothing at. You can negotiate the price down at all of these stalls. They expect you to. I definitely recommend going here. A great way to spend an evening in Chiang Mai.

It was a wonderful experience in the night market. We can enjoy the Thai foods on street for a low price. It's clean and delicious.

Tha Phae Gate is a decent spot to visit if you're exploring Chiang Mai. It’s a popular landmark with historical value, and there’s usually something going on around the area, like street performers or markets. It’s not overly exciting, but nice for a quick walk, some photos, and people-watching. Worth stopping by if you’re nearby, but not something to go out of your way for.

The gate is always full of people during day and night. I preferred to visit it during the night as local vendors come out and make the place more vibrant. This place is definitely a must visit. For ladies they do photoshoot with provided dresses. The guys doing it seemed to know what they are doing, no idea what they charged but if thats your thing then enjoy your photoshoot too!

historical place. there are many pigeons here, very beautiful to take pictures. around there will be people selling bird food and helping us take pictures (for a fee). and some young people ask us to support money for poor children, I don't know if this is legal but you should pay attention

One of the most iconic landmarks in Chiang Mai. It’s perfect place to start exploring the old city, surrounded by charming cafes, local shops and street performers. The atmosphere is lively during the day and even more magical at sunset.

The Phae Gates are a nice add to Chiang Mai but note there are a lot of birds! Very cool to see the bricks of the old gate. After you see it once, it’s just a gate to pass in between to get between old city square and the outside on the east side!

Ancient wall build by a king to protect chiang mai city from invaders. Now it is a most famous landmark in chiang mai. Grate location for a photo videos and at night small vendors are there to sel handmade goods

I visited Tha Phae Gate and absolutely loved the vibe—this iconic eastern entrance to Chiang Mai’s 13th-century walled city has been beautifully conserved and even rebuilt in the 1980s to echo its original grandeur. Walking through the gate, you feel part of centuries of history, as monks, traders, and diplomats once passed right where you stand. Today it’s a lively square surrounded by crumbling city walls, temples, cafés, street vendors, and occasional festivals like Loy Krathong, Songkran, and the colorful Sunday Walking Street . You can see Wat Chedi Luang, Wat Phra Singh, and grab amazing local food—think khao soi and sausage nearby . To get there from The Astra Sky River, I hopped in a Grab for about 60–80 baht (~$2 USD) and was there in 5–7 minutes—super easy and cheap. It’s the perfect spot to soak in history, grab a coffee, and explore the heart of Chiang Mai!

Visiting Mae Rim Elephant Safari in Chiang Mai was one of the best experiences of our trip to Thailand. From the very beginning, the team made us feel welcome and cared for. The sanctuary provides a wonderful balance of learning, fun, and close interaction with the elephants, all while treating them with great respect. We started with an elephant walk through the forest trail, which was peaceful, scenic, and gave us the chance to observe the elephants in their natural environment. The feeding session was so much fun – the elephants were gentle, and it was incredible to connect with them up close. Bathing the elephants was another highlight – refreshing, playful, and something our kids will never forget. What really made the experience extra special was our guide, Dee. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and had such a great way of explaining everything. Dee made sure both adults and kids were fully involved, and his passion for elephants truly shone through. There were also fantastic activities for children, which made the day even more enjoyable for families. Our kids were entertained, educated, and left with memories they’ll cherish forever. Overall, Mae Rim Elephant Safari goes above and beyond. It’s not just a tourist attraction – it’s an ethical, hands-on experience that lets you truly appreciate these amazing animals. Highly recommended for families, nature lovers, and anyone visiting Chiang Mai! Thanks to @travellerscaffe India tour company to arrange same for us.

Visiting the elephant sanctuary was truly an unforgettable experience and easily the highlight of my travels. The sanctuary is a genuine haven for elephants, where you can clearly see the care, love, and respect given to these amazing animals throughout your visit. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate, taking time to explain the elephants’ individual stories and teach visitors about ethical wildlife tourism. You get the chance to interact with the elephants in a responsible way—feeding, observing, and walking with them in a natural environment, with no riding or performances involved. Everything here revolves around the elephants’ well-being.

Maerim Elephant Sanctuary was amazing! We spent all day with elephants… the people who stayed with us were so kind…they take care of the animals and made us fell that we were at home. It was a beautiful and loving experience! We feel very grateful!

Fantastic experience! The staff are excellent, Mek was a brilliant guide and was very knowledgable about the elephants. We fed the elephants, had a mud bath with them and went in their pool to clean them. Beautiful sanctuary with a lovely pool to relax in at the end. Very relaxed and informal but very educational. Would highly reccomend for all ages. My 9 year old loved it and they were very good with him.

Such an amazing memories, I could never imagine being so close to observe an elephant. They are so precious and felt truly grateful for the amazing staffs at Maerim Elephant Sanctuary to rescue them. Also big thanks to Mek Mek and Tim for the great tour and knowledge about elephants!!!

A truly amazing experience. Opted for the full day tour, and SO glad we did. We were able to spend so much time with the elephants, nothing ever felt rushed. You get to spend time with them, feed them, bathe them, even do a short walk with them. Our guide, Tim, was the kindest, most informative guide! He brought such a good energy and was happy to answer all questions. The photographer, Bay, was also an absolute legend and I would highly recommend getting the photograph packages at the end. It was 800 baht (this varies depending on your group size) for digital copies of about 300 pictures! Definitely worth it. I could not recommend this tour more if I tried! You also get to relax at the end of the tour in a swimming pool, with the options for drinks too! Also - spent a lot of time researching the various sanctuaries in Chiang Mai, and this one ticked all the boxes! The way they operate is “elephant led”, let them do what they want and we will follow. Foraging was a small part of the tour, you chop down 2 banana leaf trees each and then carry them to the van. (Nothing to be phased by at all!) You also get given a change of clothes before you meet the elephants so don’t worry about getting mucky!

This was the best experience of my life Tim our guide was lovely and extremely knowledgeable. The Elephants were well loved and well cared for. Loved every minute of it. Thank you

We spent the afternoon at Thai Elephant Home and had the best time. We happened to have the tour all to ourselves, which made it even more special. The guides were so lovely—fun, kind, educated and really patient with my daughter, who was a bit nervous at first. Walking through the jungle was beautiful, and we had so much fun in the river with the elephants. You can tell they’re really well cared for and loved by their handlers. Such a memorable experience—highly recommend!

We had the best experience traveling for a whole month in Thailand with my 2 daughters (10-20 yrs). The quality of service, kindness, respect for the animals was a 10/10. We booked a full day and spent 4-5 hours with direct contact with the elephant. Our guide was great! English very fluent! My daughters love it! Sure we all going to remember forever!

This was my second time spending the day at Thai Elephant Home and I loved every moment of it. The elephants are clearly well cared for and extremely friendly. Highly recommend!

We had a great time with wonderful elephants!! Elephants and trainers are amazing professional. They took us from our hotel to elephant place all the way. So kind… Thank you so much:) I hope come back again !

Visited on Thai National Elephant Day, we started by a prayer at the Ganesha shrine at the elephant home. Was a very spiritual day with the elephants. I gave my mahoot my phone & he took lots of photos & videos of the day, great souvenirs. Thankyou, hope to come back one day.

Best experience! There is no other experience that makes you feel that elephants are gentle animals. You can feel the elephant's skin, muscles, nose, eyes, everything directly. Please try this tour. Some people will criticize. However, criticism spoken from a safe distance without knowing anything has no value. Only those who have touched elephants directly, looked into their beautiful eyes, and even made a donation for elephants can speak about the pros and cons of this. I have done all of that. From my perspective, this is a very valuable place to understand elephants directly. I want many people to experience it. Then you can decide whether it is good or bad. If you are reading this, you are probably considering it. I wish you a wise experience.

I spent a month here enjoying the elephants and the Thai family that run this Beautiful Elephant sanctuary. Definitely a experience of a lifetime, if you love Animals, nature, simple environmental living and don’t mind getting your hands dirty. A welcome respite from chaotic society; to really living off the land located In a secluded rice paddy’s surrounded by lush tropical forest. Looking forward to my next trip to the Thai Elephant Home…. Thank you For all you do for these wonderful elephants and the environment, the world needs more people like you!

We went in as a group of 8 and paid 40 baht per person to enter a cave that was lit with electric light. After that we had to hire a guide (320 baht, 40 baht per person) who carried an oil lamp and directed our walk through 3 dark caves full of stalactites and stalagmites. One area had bats but they were settled peacefully on the roof of the cave. The walk was difficult to navigate because of the darkness and the uneven formations on the ground. Twice, we had to pass through narrow paths and it might be a bit challenging for tall and/or well built individuals. Hands, clothes and shoes will get soiled from touching the cave walls, so come prepared. We enjoyed walking in and out of the cave. It was thrilling and exciting. The guides are locals who willingly offer their skill and service to this place so tipping is encouraged and we tipped our guide 200 baht. She managed us patiently and waited for all of us to pass before moving forward with the lamp. She also explained the shapes (elephant and water lily) of the formations. I wouldn’t recommend this place to someone who has breathing troubles or fear of dark/tight places/claustrophobia.

A very nice place. We payed 40 B at the entrance (per person). Just 2 minutes after, few ladies were waiting for us to suggest us a privet tour to the “dark” side of the cave :) for 200 B. It was very nice.

Very long cave with stunning structure along with Buddha statues and symbols. Worth visiting if you are in the area. There are some guides who offer special tour inside the cave (200B) who in my opinion a bit too pushy but I understand it’s their way of make a living.

I don’t know why is this such an attraction… it’s not well maintained, a snake jumped at me from the stairs… 40thb entrance which is fair, but then an army of middle aged women inside the cave who do not speak a word of English tried to talk me into renting a lamp for 200thb, WTH is this touristic trap? Some big sculptures outside are pretty cool.

Amazing place. Apart of us 6, we've seen another 10 other ppl there. Caves are beautiful and bats amazing. In some places, you need to crawl. It was a part of kayaking, and the guide was really good.

This is definitely a must do experience in Chiang Dao. A quaint temple environment in the north and an amazing cave that is easy to walk through and lavishly adorned as most buddhist temple caves are.

It worths a visit. The cave down there is just magnificent. And you’ll see a lot more of the cave if you’re enrolled in a guided tour.
