Bangkok
Very grand, golden and unmistakably Thai. The complex includes Wat Phra Kaew and is one of Bangkok's signature attractions. Foreign admission is currently ฿500.
Pattaya
Nong Nooch Tropical Garden
elephants + huge tropical gardens
This is probably the elephant place many travelers are thinking about. It has Thai cultural performances and elephant shows, including elephants doing activities such as painting and playing with balls.
KAAN Show
cinematic Thai fantasy show
For the fantasy-show feeling, this is a strong Pattaya option: Thai mythology, huge projections, acrobatics, martial arts, flying effects and theatrical fantasy scenery. Current listings show it at Singha D'Luck Cinematic Theatre in Pattaya.
