Pattaya is famous for what?

Once a small fishing village on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand, Pattaya has now turned into an international playground with long stretches of golden beaches, virgin forestland and superb golf courses. After day’s surfing, parasailing and snorkeling at the blue water beaches in Pattaya, tapping feet at the night life beats of alcazar or tiffany or many other such delightful night shows revives every soul on a Thailand trip. The rich cultural experience at Elephant’s Village can be exchanged as a memoire of lifetime.

Pattaya is actually famous for sea beach. You can visit another place too. The showcase of Underwater World begins at the shallow "Touch Pool" area which allows visitors to see and interact with underwater lives such as sharks, stingrays, turtles, starfishes, seahorses, many species of fishes, seaweeds, colored corals, small creatures, etc. Then visitors proceed down the state-of-the-art acrylic underwater tunnel which is divided into 3 zones. The first part is themed "Reef Zone" featuring coral reef. Next is "Sharks and Rays Zone" showcasing sharks, sting rays and other creatures from the depth of the sea. The last is "Shipwrecks Zone" featuring various kinds of fish which are edible.

Pattaya is an attractive and superb place for anyone who is looking for a journey in Thailand. Pattaya’s sights are mainly modern, much reflecting the town itself

Pattaya is internationally famous for its nightlife, and has a reputation as Thailand’s naughtiest city. Many flock to Pattaya for the party atmosphere, where the nightlife characterizes the city and self-gratification is on the menu wherever you go.

Thailand is really one of the best place for travelers. Every year thousands of travelers go to there for their vocation. Because it is less expensive as well as beautiful with its beautiful places which is most attractive part of this place. I liked it. And in thailand every one would like to visit Pattaya which is famous for traveling.

The politically correct answer to your question is "nightlife". A tragedy really because Pattaya has a lot more to offer than just discos, go go bars etc. The beaches especially those in the Jomtien area are beautiful. Tons of things to do from para sailing to scuba diving.
