You are welcome to Pattaya, named after the strong winds which come from the South West at the beginning of every rainy season. Up to 40 years ago Pattaya was just a sleepy fishing village, but the Vietnam war changed it. America sent soldiers to build the air base at U Tapao (40km south of Pattaya) and many of these took to spend their time and money in Pattaya. Pattaya is Thailand’s one of the best beach resort and attracts annually about a million tourists from all over the world. Pattaya provides high standard resorts, hotels, restaurants, sports, entertainment and shopping facilities.
