Pattay – views from the observation deck, and run down houses..

In this part of my stories about Pattaya I want to show some city views. Pattaya as many cities can be very different, go to tourist hot spot and you can shoot breath taking pictures, turn off the main road and in 100 meters you will see run down houses and shacks.. Pattaya city view

Many hotel offered city bus tours. Some of these tours are free and some cost around $20. We took one of these tours. Pattay-views-03

At some point I have got tired riding with the tour bus, and got off. I walked towards the Central Festival and on my way shot some pics of regular houses. I assume not everybody of course but quite a few of the local folks live in the houses like this..
