Pattaya is often considered a paradise for foreigners or a city for adult tourism. However, it is not true that children cannot visit Pattaya. In fact, Pattaya offers a variety of educational, fun, and exciting places for children of all ages. Let's explore some of the best places to visit with your children on a short 2-day, 1-night trip.

This trip was specifically organized for children as a gift for the end of the school term. On March 24-25, 2018, the journey began from Bangkok at around 8:00 AM. We encountered traffic congestion near the expressway exit before paying the toll fee. (It is recommended to allow extra travel time, especially on Saturdays and Sundays, due to heavy traffic.) As soon as we approached Pattaya, we set our sights on the first destination according to the itinerary...

Monster Aquarium Pattaya

A great place for children to learn and see a variety of animals. Open daily from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Located next to the railway. Admission fees: Adults 100 baht, Children 50 baht, Children under 100 cm tall enter free!

Upon entering, you will find a seating area and various zones, including restrooms, which are clearly visible.

All snacks for children are 10 baht.

Testing station for courage. Oh my! A real snake!

A very large scorpion

This place also has nibble fish, which is a delightful sight to see.

It took us about an hour to walk around the aquarium. We then headed to our second stop, RubberLand.

RubberLand

This is the first and only virtual reality learning center in Asia that provides comprehensive knowledge and entertainment about rubber. It is especially suitable for children as rubber is a very familiar material. Admission fee: Adults 100 baht / Children 60 baht.

Entrance: Staff will be available to welcome visitors and explain the viewing procedures.

Why is it necessary to tap rubber trees at dawn?

Each point will have staff on hand to explain and provide information.

Listen carefully to both children and adults.

Translate: Simulate various objects around us made from natural rubber.

Children are having fun with soft rubber balls.

The spider's web has come.

After leaving Rubberland, it was past one o'clock in the afternoon. Exhausted from walking, our stomachs were already growling. We needed to find a place to eat quickly!

As our accommodation was located near Jomtien, we opted for a nearby restaurant to avoid a long drive. Our search led us to Poo Pen, one of the most highly reviewed restaurants in Pattaya. While the photos showcase three dishes, we actually indulged in more than that. Our hunger got the better of us, and we couldn't resist digging in before capturing every dish.

After a satisfying meal, we felt a bit drowsy and decided to head back to our accommodation. For this trip, we booked a stay at View Talay Villas, a house with a sea view. The property isn't directly on the beach, but it's only a 5-minute drive or a short walk away. The villa boasts a private pool, which was a major plus. Overall, the house was spacious, clean, and comfortable, although it did show some signs of age due to its long existence.

This area is divided into two zones: one for homeowners and one for tourists to rent.

The living room, kitchen, and bedrooms are all spacious.

Waking up early, I took the kids to the beach at Jomtien. Otherwise, they'll think we didn't come to the sea.

Enjoying themselves according to their age and interests...we just sit and watch.

FROST MAGICAL ICE OF SIAM

On the second day of our trip to Pattaya, before heading back, we took the kids to Frost Magical Ice of Siam, where they braved the -15°C temperature. The entrance fee for adults is 350 baht per person.

The exterior is also beautiful with pictures telling stories. Especially when the sky is beautiful, the pictures are amazing. (The sun is also very strong)

Seeking refuge from the sun, we entered the air-conditioned room. After receiving our passes and changing into our gear, we took some photos. For those who didn't bring sneakers, rental shoes were available, along with gloves. Before entering the cold environment, we stood in a room to adjust our body temperature.

Drink water to defy the cold... After drinking, you can throw the glass at the wall. It's so much fun!!

The trip ended beautifully with a budget-friendly price and knowledge to take home. As mentioned, Pattaya has more to offer than you might think. It is a hub of knowledge, entertainment, and fun for people of all ages. Traveling is convenient and not far from Bangkok. Traveling by private car takes about 2 hours and is suitable for those who do not want to drive long distances. I hope everyone enjoys their trip to Pattaya and don't forget to share your experiences.
