Bang Lamung District, Thailand
Pattaya City,
N/A
Although a relatively smaller temple it’s dedicated to Chinese Guan Yu, the courageous! There is a lot of history about the Chinese emperors and warlords. The story is a multilingual and captions on the many illustrations on the walls. Several other places with deities for worship, scenes from historical or mythical tales and serene ponds and gardens. Further up the hill is the Big Buddha so don’t stop your walk here!

A very nice temple to visit. I've been to Pattaya many times but this was my first time to be at this temple. It can be quite hot during the middle of the day, therefore I suggest a visit before sunset or in the morning time. The the views around are amazing.
Nice Temple with beautiful gardens. Great place to relax and spend time walking through.
chinese shrine and meditation space with a nicely landscaped park and nice views over Pattaya. worth visiting if going to Wat Phra Yai
Monastery? I saw no monks ... It's more of a shrine, or rather a collection of shrines, honoring some of the Immortals of Chinese history, philosophy and religious worship. There's a shrine honoring Lao-Tse, writer of the Tao Teh Ching which is the first book of Taoism; another for Confucius, yet another for Guan Yu who rebuilt the Yuan Dynasty, and several others, including a large statue of Kuan Yin, the Goddess of Mercy ... the surprise for me was finding a large sunken garden in the middle, dominated by a bronze statue of Sun Yat-Sen, which was surrounded with some of his sayings. If you're headed for the Big Buddha, this is nearby, and worth visiting in its own right.
