Small temple combined with a viewpoint over looking the town and sea. The entrance is down a very small road off sukhumvit road, when you are in the area you will see a Burger King at a gas station, this is where you need to turn off. Up the hill there are plenty of monkeys so if walking keep your valuables safe!! Parking for quite a few cars is available, nothing undercover so your cars interior may get a little warm during your visit. Inside you have the pray areas, buddha shrine which stands over 40ft tall, a phayana dragon guarded entrance to the view point and the crystal ball that gives an inverted view of the scenery. We went yesterday and there are some maintenance going on the steps to the viewpoint, view point still accessible tho. Overall the whole of the complex is very clean and well maintained. Not a major attraction so quite quiet and very beautiful! If your in the area have a look!!

Some days this gets swamped with tourists and other days peaceful. It is a nice temple on top of the mountain overlooking Pattaya. I live Khao Phratamnak and have the fortune to listed to the Monks chanting on all the Buddhist holidays. I think there are some good photographic opportunities here. At minimum, a view of the city and surrounding area. Depends on what attracts you are what you like.

This newly erected Chinese style temple is very impressing. The variety of colours and the quality of the murals are impressing. From the 4th floor of the temple you have an amazing view of the sea.
