Holidaymakers will find that shopping in Pattaya is fun and interesting with many bargains to be had, as is the case in most major centres in Thailand. The main shopping area is in the south around the large seaside hotels. Congregated here is a selection of jewellery stores, tailors, boutiques selling silk and cotton goods, and handcraft shops. The largest shopping complex is on North Pattaya Road, designed like a traditional night market and including a bazaar, handcraft centre and several bars and restaurants to complement the shops.
