Phra Tamnak Mountain Viewpoint
Rob's take
"Still the best free thing to do in Pattaya — the entire sweep of the bay from the hill between town and Jomtien, with the PATTAYA CITY sign a few steps along for the obligatory photo. Come for sunset, but get to the café a good hour beforehand if you want a seat, because everyone else has had the same idea."
Phra Tamnak Mountain Viewpoint is a thing to do in Pattaya, within the greater Pattaya area of Chon Buri, Thailand, and one of Rob's picks on this guide. It's rated 4.6★ on Google. Open daily, 7:00 AM–10:00 PM.
Phra Tamnak Mountain Viewpoint sits on the hill between Pattaya and Jomtien, offering a sweeping panorama of Pattaya Bay, the curving coastline and the city skyline. It is easily reached by car or bike, and a hillside café makes it a relaxed spot to take in the scenery. The famous 'PATTAYA CITY' sign nearby is a popular photo stop, and the views are at their best around sunset.
