- Walking Street – Perhaps the most boisterous thoroughfare in the world – the Walking Street in Pattaya is truly one of a kind. Whatever your proclivity you can find it here. Hop on a Songthaew (also known as public passenger pick-up truck) and take a brief ride to the Walking Street – it truly is a fascinating experience to behold.
