Pattaya Beach During The Day

What is the difference between Pattaya and Phuket... oh, for many times, I have confused between the two... both are more or less the same, sunshine and beautiful beaches! I have been to Phuket once and that was in the 1980s... and I have been to Pattaya also once and between the two, I think I prefer Pattaya... even a dish over here in Malaysia is called Pattaya rice! (Fried rice being wrapped up with fried egg!)  So I guess Pattaya is more popular among Malaysians?

I had one regret though... going to Pattaya for a day trip from Bangkok is not truly encouraged... Why?  Because during the day, the sun was blazing hot and most of the shops/bars/pubs are closed during the day!   Pattaya only "comes alive" during the night, I believe.... I miss out all the food snacks, the hawkers stalls, the shopping, the "highlights" and all these happen during the night... Well, to experience all these, it is worth staying a night or two... (my opinion....)
During the day... it was all Sun and Light... hahahaa....
.... and "covered head and eyes!
But during the day, you can admire the beautiful Pattaya Beach...
.... though I have to "squint" my eyes whenever I take the pictures.....
and at times I ended up taking "not-so-interesting" scenes... hahaha....
 
But the picture comes alive when two ladies stood here.. LOL...
How about this?  I love this picture!
I must have "me" in it....
Well, that's it... Pattaya City behind me....
Miss the night life though...

  8. When you first mentioned these two places, I thought they were food dishes!!! They are so pretty, have you tried the night life, maybe lots of pretty lights, shopping and food. How far away from home?

  9. Looks very good, do you like Pattaya? I know it as a place with a doubtful reputation.

  13. This is the first time I hear someone prefers Pattaya instead of Phuket. Maybe you didn't see enough of the island which is very beautiful with clear waters compared to Pattaya. Go again to Phuket!!!
