Part 4..Out of Pattaya..and things to buy.
1. Sriracha town - about 20 km North of Pattaya..also known as Jap town. Becos almost all the bars are in Jap letterings..and so called Jap snack bars. Also home to the famous sriracha chilli sauce.
2. Golf courses and Driving ranges - many many
3. Diving - a growing market in Pattaya..a couple of decent wrecks and maybe a floating body or 2.
4. Bungy jumping and Sky diving - ever growing popularity..you can take your A licence here..whatever that is. i only know muff diving.
5. Rayong - Gateway to South East Thailand..Ie Chanthaburi. Thailand's holiest buddhist place is called Khitchakut...or Buddha's footprint.
Rayong is also home of the Thai durian. Funny these Thais eat durian that are still hard. We like it soft and smelly.
6. Ban Chang - golfers stopover..some bring golf bags but only do the golfing at Ban Chang.
7. Silverlake vineyard - they actually do grow grapes here.
8. Bira circuit - racing circuit.
9. Koh Samet - there is a casino here..but dont expect Genting or the Sands.
To buy...as Pattaya is on the Eastern seaboard..a lot of cheap dried seafood can be found here. So it also apply that there are a lot of seafood restaurants..cheap and good..from Sriracha..Bangsaen..Pattaya..Bangsaray..Rayong..Sa ttahip..many good seafood restaurants.
