Laem Chabang, Sanctuary of Truth

Depart the pier for the scenic, approximately one-hour drive to the Sanctuary of Truth (Wooden Pavilion), a mystical building constructed according to ancient Thai specifications, and the largest wood-carved structure in Thailand. Designed as a pagoda-shaped pavilion, the building is over 340 feet (about 103.6 metres) in height, and is a fusion of religion, culture and art. Originally crafted entirely from Thailand's native teak, parts of it have been replaced by the more durable redwood to withstand the ravages of the salt air.

Guided Tour, Wooden Sculptures, Inner-Chapel

Upon arrival, take a guided tour of the Sanctuary of Truth. The entire building is covered with intricate and detailed wooden sculptures, reflecting the Ancient Vision of Earth, Ancient Knowledge and Eastern Philosophy. Inside, the cavernous inner-chapel reveals scenes from Chinese, Hindu and Buddhist traditions, with samples of animism and geomancy thrown into the mix. After the visit, refreshments will be served at the museum's coffee shop.

Transfer to Bangkok Suvarnabhumi Airport via Pattaya Beach Road

Re-board your coach for a scenic drive on Pattaya Beach Road, and continue journey for approximately 2-hours to Bangkok Airport for your departure flight.
