Very convenient. Didn't have to worry about seats or getting a very late bus travel time especially this holiday season wherein you have to queue since there are a lot of travelers.

The Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya is a breathtaking wooden masterpiece blending Thai art, spirituality, and philosophy. Its intricate carvings depict religious and cultural themes, creating a serene yet inspiring experience. Visitors often highlight the awe-inspiring craftsmanship and the peaceful seaside setting. Guided tours and cultural performances enrich the visit, although construction is ongoing since 1981.
