North Pattaya is perhaps the quietest part of Pattaya and one that resembles the old town with its air of an ancient village characterised by traditional wooden houses, bobbing fishing boats, narrow streets and little shops selling of the worldis leading hotels to choose from ranging from the Amari and Dusit group hotels, the Montien, Marriott and the unique Rabbit Resort. There is a plentiful supply of budget and super-budget accommodation.

Pattaya has many attractions to keep child and adult occupied for a long weekend, The Elephant Village is a sanctuary where former working elephants can live out their remaining years in dignity and peace. There are elephant treks and daily shows to showcase the majesty of these magnificent creatures.
