Suan Thai Pattaya

Chon Buri Province

This is a theme park-style spot for traditional Thai culture near Pattaya. It combines floating houses, craft demonstrations, folk dance, herbs, Thai sweets, and recreations of rural landscapes, creating a showcase of Thailand's "old lifestyles and beliefs, material culture, and memories of festivals." While it is a managed tourist destination, it is also a stop-off spot where you can enjoy viewing, photography, eating, and light experiences all at the same time. The textures of the bamboo, wood, reflections on the canal, and colors of the costumes all look great in photos, making it a great place for families or a break to learn about the culture.
