1. Pattaya
Pattaya not only is a top attraction in
Thailand, but its reputation has also been
spread all over the world. This is because
there are a number of natural attractions
in Pattaya, such as Pattaya Beach,

2. Jomtien beach, KohLarn, Silverlake
winery, and so on. Apart from these natural
attractions, there are also night clubs, a
broad range of restaurants, sports and water
activities, and traditional shows. It is
therefore not surprisingly to see numerous
numbers of visitors travelling Pattaya,
especially in October to March where it is as
the peak season.
There is a story for the reason why this
city is named Pattaya. In 1767, before the
second fall of the Thailand former capital,
Ayuthaya, to Burmese, Phraya
Kampangpetch named Tak Sin (became
King Tak Sin later) believed that weak
army in the former capital could not win
the war from Burmese during that time.
Then he, Phraya Kampangpetch, gather
Thai soldiers to fight for heading southeast of

3. Thailand in order to develop a new strategy
and collect more soldiers to fight back
Burmese army.
On the way of heading to
Chanthaburi, he made a decision to let the
troop stay at the current location of
Pattaya. However, Phraya Kampangpetch
then encounters with the troop of Nai Glom,
who tried to intercept him. Surprisingly,
Phraya Kampangpetch was riding a
fighting elephant followed by his troop to
head to the middle of the troop of Nai Glom in
order to frighten the opponent. When Nai
Glom met face to face with Phraya
Kampangpetch, he then chose to surrender
without a fight because of a respect in
Phraya Kampangpetch’s manner and his
army conformity.
