The View Pattaya Giant Ferris Wheel: A New Way to See the City

The London Eye, Wiener Riesenrad, Ain Dubai – the giants have company now. The View Pattaya has rolled into the game, and if you’re ready for a bird’s-eye view of Pattaya without turning green, here’s a quick guide to what this new ride is all about.

The View Pattaya Giant Ferris Wheel just opened and it already feels like one of those tourist attractions in Thailand that tries to be both iconic and slightly dramatic. Standing 100 meters tall at Runway The Market on Pattaya Second Road, it offers 360-degree views of the beaches, skyline, and the messy-but-fun streets. And if you land on cheap flights to Pattaya airport or even via Bangkok, it takes roughly 45 minutes to get here. Rides run daily from 4:00 p.m. to 1:00 a.m., which means people can chase daylight, sunset, and neon nights in a single loop.

What’s the price to ride it?

Standard gondolas hold six people and cost 280 baht for Thai residents, 480 baht for foreigners. The VIP ones have glass floors and fancy seats at 600 baht, perfect for people who like mild heart attacks and good photos.

More than 200 million baht was invested, so expectations are high. Officials say it will boost Thailand tourism and help local cafés and shops survive the constant tourist shuffle. The launch event had dignitaries, entertainment, and a moment of silence for Queen Sirikit, which gave a sentimental tone to what was otherwise a flashy show.

What To Do In Pattaya

For people hunting places to visit in Thailand, Pattaya is back in the conversation because of the View Pattaya Giant Ferris Wheel. You could book a stay at some of the best hotels in Pattaya, then head over for a ride, grab a meal at the View Pattaya restaurant, and later wander into whatever nightlife your energy can handle. The View Pattaya Giant Ferris Wheel also joins The View Pattaya in trying to make the area more of a big entertainment hub.

Tips Before Planning Trip To Thailand

Thailand is planning a 300 baht entry fee for foreign visitors coming by air, land, or sea. And there’s a crackdown on visa runs, so people doing back-and-forth border hopping will get fewer entries. Even though India now needs TDAC, checking requirements or applying Thailand visa online can still save Indian travelers time, especially if they are staying beyond the limit period.

Southern floods after a late-November cyclone affected millions, so it’s smart to check routes, especially if someone visiting Thailand for the first time and expecting smooth weather. You can also plan your trip through all-inclusive Thailand tour packages, which will reduce your effort and make the whole process a lot easier.

It may not change your life, but it fits perfectly into a trip that’s already about exploring, eating, and wandering around. If you’re heading to the city anyway, it’s an easy, cheerful stop worth squeezing into the plan.
