The Sanctuary of Truth or Prasat Mai
Noom, my friend from Bangkok came to Pattaya and convinced me to go and see this marvel located just outside Pattaya. A bit more than most places at $17 admission and a $8.60 taxi each way, it proved well worth it. Looking ancient, the structure was conceived by a wealthy Thai businessman and commenced in 1981. It is scheduled to be completed by 2025.
