Wat Phra Yai & Laser Buddha – Spiritual Sights on Our Pattaya Day Trip 🛕✨🪷

#thailandtrip
As part of our Pattaya day trip, we visited Wat Phra Yai, and it was such a peaceful and beautiful experience. The giant golden Buddha sitting high on the hill felt so calm and powerful in person 🧘♀️💛 The golden naga staircase leading up made the whole moment feel even more special.

From the top, there’s also a nice view over Pattaya — and it’s really close to a viewpoint, so we got to enjoy both with no rush 🌿📸

Later in the day, we also went to see the Laser Buddha (Khao Chi Chan) — and that was another wow moment! The Buddha is carved into the side of a mountain with laser precision and filled in with gold — seriously impressive and unlike anything I’ve seen before ✨⛰️

Both places gave off peaceful energy in different ways — one high above the city, the other carved into nature. Together, they made our Pattaya day trip feel calm, meaningful, and full of photo-worthy views 🙏💛
