Nongnooch Garden Pattaya: Free Admission to Phra Phutthakhun Museum for Thai Nationals Throughout November 2024
Nongnooch Garden Pattaya, led by President Mr. Kampon Tansatcha, is offering Thai nationals free entry to the Phra Phutthakhun Museum, a rich collection of Thailand’s valuable ancient Buddhist artifacts, throughout the month of November 2024.
Last month, the Phra Phutthakhun Museum opened with free admission, attracting over 15,000 visitors. Due to high demand and many who missed the opportunity, the free admission period has been extended for another month. In addition to the Phra Phutthakhun Museum, the garden has also created sacred sites, including the “Nine Temples,” statues of Phra Phrom (the four-faced god), Ganesha, Naga statues, and the Churning of the Ocean of Milk installation. This is part of an effort to establish a learning center focused on religious arts and culture for youth and the general public. Another highlight, especially popular with children, is the Dinosaur Valley, now featuring over 1,700 dinosaur sculptures, open to both Thai and international visitors daily.
Children under 140 cm who visit with their families, as well as people with disabilities, can enter the garden for free every day. Senior citizens (aged 60 and above) enjoy free admission every Friday. Visitors can also watch the daily Nongnooch Show and elephant performances, with four shows held daily at the Nongnooch Pattaya Scala Theater. Nongnooch Garden Pattaya is open every day from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM. For more information, please visit www.nongnoochpattaya.com.
