About Sanctuary of Truth: The all-wood, all-hand-carved temple complex on the Naklua coast, on a small headland just north of Wongamat Beach. Construction has been ongoing since 1981.
After the Sanctuary, you're in old Pattaya / Naklua territory — quieter, with a mix of seafood restaurants near the fishing port and a wave of newer high-end places attached to Wongamat condos and hotels. Here's what's nearby for a meal.
