This was taken in October 2005, it was so beautiful.
Pattaya Beach near soi 5.

Artisan, I think you're pictures of Pattaya and Naklua back in the 60s are brilliant. What a world away from modern Pattaya. I wish I had been able to visit Pattaya when it was still like that. Sadly I wasn't even born then!!

  Excellent pics anyway.

  Anybody else got any old pics of Patti?

Jomtien. First pic taken 2001, then second one from almost same viewpoit (top of Jomtien Complex) in March 2006. Just 5 years separates the two images....!! We don't really notice the differences from ground level as much do we?

Yeah, I'm with you Nathan, I wish I could've seen Thailand (not just Pattaya) circa 1970, or even 85~90. It's changed so much in just the time I've known it 2000~.

Artisan, I am so jealous! There are so few unexploited places left in the World now. Imagine what the (western) cast and crew of movies like The Man with the Golden Gun thought the first time they arrived in these locations!

Thoroughly enjoyed the "vintage" then and now pics.
Thanks!

Would anyone be able to give me directions to this park, as I'd like to visit there.

Head south out of Pattaya on the main road and go  past the Ambassador Hotel and the Marina. The main road climbs out of the urban area and there is turning to Nong Nooch on the left in a kilometer or so. It is clearly signposted so hard to miss.

Entry used to be 100 baht with an optional extra charge for a rather tacky elephant show. Now they charge a flat 400 baht with a ticket for the show. There is an area with various animals in cages which is also a little sad. But the gardens are lovely.

Sorry Hughden, I didn't notice your reply on this thread until now. Thank you. There are some very nice photos of the gardens on the site you included. It definitely looks to be worth a visit.

And now for something completely different!

After photographing mutliple horsepower at the Burapa Bike meet on Saturday, it was off to snap the polo ponies at Siam Polo Club on Sunday. Pattaya covers a variety of tastes!

yes great shame how its all changed
I was born at the wrong time I guess
first saw it 2001 and it was trashed then and even more now
golden age for travel ended in the 90,s in this area of the world I guess
your right sabaii therte are hardly any unexpolited places left in the entire world.
great shame how things end up.
I wonder if through this "progress" peoples lives in  Pattaya are any better?
i doubt it very much.
Thats why i don't think i'll have Kids
this world thats left is no longer worth bringing them into
