Pattaya looks different when you pause above the streets and take in the coastline. This Thailand travel video follows that meeting of city and sea, with the skyline opening onto the water. Below the film, my photographs show two other places in and around Pattaya: the golden Big Buddha and the Buddha outline at Khao Chi Chan. Together, they offer different perspectives on the area.
