North Pattaya hotel and Thailand accommodation hotels
guide
Naklua
means "salt fields", after the main occupation of the area before
the rise of tourism and industry. There is still the air of an ancient
village to Naklua today, for here you will see old wooden houses and narrow
streets, traditional noodle shops and working fishing boats. The old houses
over the creek are especially picturesque, and a walk through the streets
will reveal plenty of little shops selling handicrafts and domestic goods.
The Dolphin Roundabout and the beginning of Beach Road mark the junction
with North Pattaya, and the surroundings change dramatically. This is
the classy end of the resort, with upmarket hotel and restaurants facing
out over the beach. Here too you can begin a pleasant walk along the bayfront,
for a recently built promenade will take you along the shore under the
palm trees right up to through to the back part of Pattaya, known as Second
Road. There are more major hotels here, along with shopping areas, bars,
clubs, and a Tourist Police office.
