Pattaya's scenic stunners

WITH close to 30 golf courses spread out on the eastern seaboard of Thailand, the areas of Chonburi and Pattaya have long been a destination of choice with domestic golfers as well as those in the region.

And in an indication of their growing popularity, other golf course projects are also being planned.

Many layouts have been designed to championship standards and have involved some of the top golf-course architects in the world, namely Pete Dye, Jack Nicklaus, Desmond Muirhead and Schmidt/Curley.
