Inside the Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya Thailand, what a place this is and well worth visiting!

- The Sanctuary of Truth here in Pattaya was started in 1981 and is completely constructed out of wood. Held together with strategic wooden pins and joints and not a nail or screw in sight! Astonishingly impeccably intricate master carving at its best that I have ever seen. I give absolute credit to the masters who worked on the project.
This is one of the most amazing buildings not just here in pattaya, Thailand, but in the world!

I love places like this for day trips to help break up the days. Thanks for the heads up Trev!!
Any time!
@@Buzzinpattaya What did you say the fire insurance was?..
Have had a few guy's say to me over the years, "Hey, I don't come to Thailand to see the temples". Fair enough, but the Sanctuary. of Truth is so worth a visit. Totally mind blowing.
defo worth a visit
There's more to life then sitting in a bar all day in pattaya ,
You have to get out & about enjoy your Holiday ,
Great to see this Trev
Hi Trevor, thanks very much for this vlog. It’s taken me back, even when you climbed down those steep stairs and put on the protective hat it was like taking me there. I visited there every time when in Pattaya over an eight-year period and it’s a majestic place every visit. One particular detail that’s needed for anyone wishing to visit the Sanctuary of Truth: if you arrive for midday or 3pm tours you will be treated to traditional Thai dance and martial art demonstrations. In all it’s a truly spiritual place. By the way, the guide Lauren is from the Philippines. Her English diction is recognisable among the Tagalog-taught population. The tour is most recommended and thanks again for showing us around.
Thank you my friend I'm glad you enjoyed the video
It was a lovely day to have you here Mr Trev! Thanks for visiting the Sanctuary of Truth Museum.
It was a pleasure to be in your incredible sanctuary thank you
The sheer magnificent beauty & craftmanship is breathtaking. This will be one of those wonderful places as a first time visitor to Pattaya you will regret not seeing because you have woken up late everyday with a hangover, while laying in bed watching the young lady get dressed and leave as you sober up & realise she had rather a large Adams apple and very big hands 🥴...So you cry yourself back to sleep & miss visiting the museum.
When I look at this I think how in the world would you know where to even start
@@Buzzinpattaya hahaha It had the desired effect I was looking for then mate😉. Life is to serious and we all a giggle once in a while.
I had no knowledge about the place until I saw this Vlog. I took the trip out there today and the place is incredible. The people that work there have an incredible amount of talent. Far greater than any than I could hope to have. I took the tour and was given a lesson in the meaning of life and the difference between good and bad. Thanks, Trev for another life lesson and heads up on this wonderful place.
I'm delighted you had a really good time thank you
I spent about 3 hours looking around , I build skyscrapers and bridges and I’m amazed at the craftsmanship. The 3 huge elephant heads on the roof are my favorite
yeah amazes me so must blow your mind understanding how they put it all together
Absolutely brilliant video, I’ve been there, it really is stunning, there’re carvings inside carvings, the craftsmanship is the very best, definitely a must visit whilst in Pattaya, thanks for showing 👍
Thanks mate and yes a lovely place
That place was unbelievable, no power tools in sight.
Went there with my friend back in 2012.
Would recommend anyone to go and visit this place.
As you said me when you take it all in how they constructed this building is amazing
Trevor, great video, I have visited the Sanctuary of Truth, it is amazing. I agree with you, as visitors to amazing Thailand we should take time to visit and support these type of places, understand the culture and heritage of a wonderful country!
Well said
Visited on my last trip on a quiet day and sat in the middle of the building and just felt overwhelmed by the whole place. A real experience and well worth the THB500.
As you said it really is an experience
Amazing,great job Trevor!!!
Glad you liked it!
Good job showing it---you have a good talk along with most of the details......I filmed it and mainly shut up and just showed interior and outside . This is a truly amazing man made marvel found no where else in the World AMAZING PLACE
I agree it is an incredible place
Beautiful in it's intricacies
very
This is what Pattaya should be famous for. 😛 Amazing woodwork.
LOL
Gonna go there next time I'm in Pattaya. It reminds me of La Alhambra in Granada (Spain). All the work to make places like this is mind-boggling.
I am positive you have a great time
Really, really nice place doesn't do that place justice, it is jaw dropping stunning. I would visit that place in a heart beat and the fact that it's within the city makes it even more appealing. Really really good one Trev, you just added one to the bucket list.
Nice one mate and yes a lovely place
The sanctuary of truth is just awesome. My friends and I went there in 2015. My brother spend most of his feeding the elephants. The restaurant food was great. But what we loved about this is that it is so peaceful. The place is so calm. It helps to calm down too.. A must visit for anyone
Thanks for sharing
Amazing. I love it here.cant say how incredible this place is. I visit every time I am in Pattaya. Worth putting on your to do list. Thanks Trev for this video,watched it several times already, never tire of this wonderful place.
Thank you for sharing a yes it is fantastic there
It's complete overload when you visit. The details are unbelievable 👍+1.
Agreed me it really is mind-boggling
@@Buzzinpattaya In hindsight I think you have to say to yourself: I'll pick 5 or 6 statues, study them closely and reflect on the workmanship (not for a video, but just for your soul). The boobs in the woodshed were plastic (must be "post-modern" style), but the boobs near the entrance look real.
In Paris there's a statue (a bust, oops) of Dalida, and you feel her breasts for good luck. You can Google it. No patina on them at all. 👍🇹🇭🇫🇷 🤣🤣.
its an amazing building, i try to visit on most trips. incredible detail and carving
Nice one thank you for sharing
this was one of the most memorable places in the Pattaya area, other than recreation.
i regret not exploring more in that area.
The smell of the wood baking in the sun, and the wood being chiseled away by the construction teams was remarkable as well.
It was an incredibly enjoyable experience walking around the sanctuary
What a wonderful gem this is Trevor.
It really is a nice place to worth a visit
Sight for sore eyes! (more the sanctuary than your self Trev) Have visited a few time and always more amazed each visit. Believe its an on going work of renewing as the timber deterioration. Also the closer you look the more detail you notice in the carving.
Is a really good day out with the new found LOYL
Thanks mate
One thing that instantly comes to mind...........with the complexity of the structure, there surely must be architectural plans somewhere but one doesn't see anything of the kind.
No obvious engineer, foreman, work site safety officer handing out fines.
Many commercial building sites I've worked on could do well to follow their examples.
Mind boggling example, thanks. I have seen similar example of carvings and timber buildings in Thailand but not to that large amount in one place.
I think one of the kings palaces was a large timber "house" but forget where it was now.
Hey Trev, movie 5th element.............
What are all the concrete blocks on the sea side...??
An old honesty I have no idea but I'm sure you are right
They are sea wall Mr. Jeff. To protect water coming in, in times of high tide and also as a stopping point for curious people looking around the sea.
Lovely place, I am not religious but I always go see a few temples and they are always give me a happy feel when I am over there and I have been to The Sanctuary of Truth. Wish I had taken a picnic there just to chill. Got a couple of pics with the Muay Thai guys from the show that gets put on
Like you I'm not religious but I love going to this place to see what they do
Thanks for the great video 👍 my mum has weak knees and it helped in our trip planning knowing that there's Direct access to the main attraction and lift access. She have enjoyed herself:)
Glad it was helpful!
Great video Trevor, been there couple of times, your tour guide Lauren, sounds filipino
Yes as you said mate it is a really good place
Great Vlog Trevor, much better than interviewing old Bullsh.......
Thank you
Big T, you can’t win! Dads army when you’ve the motorbike helmet on and now in the video, you turn into Bob the builder! 😁
Talk about versatile LOL
Awesome great video great view Thailand 🇹🇭
Thank you
Trev, absolutely fantastic, thank you for this vid!!, the time & effort to make this place, besides the face value of the carvings, it is the belief/zen of the place which drives the people to make it possible....Peace
Always welcome my friend happy to do what I can
Amazing Video Presentation, The Temple is well and truly on my to do list next time in Pattaya, Tour guide Lauren did an amazing job showing you around and quite cute as well... Now i ask my fellow viewers of this vlog please dont give Trevor a hard time about wearing the helmet, Please lets just be mature and show restraint... Now on a bright side this is the first time i have seen "Bob the Builder" do a CZcams video about Thailand... lol
I'm sure you'll have a great time lol
Amazing job with tus video, very informative. Thank you! ❤
You are so welcome!
I went there a few years ago & completely agree, it’s well worth a trip. Incredible to see. Trev, you deserve an award for what you’ve done & do for local tourism. 🏵😄
Thank you for sharing your experience
Thanks for this video, found it very interesting. Definitely gonna go there next time I'm in Pattaya
Thank you so much
You asking before and then your Guide saying hello , i instantly smiled Trev bless her ..😊The Helmet comment we could of all done without 🤦♂️55 Can't believe in the last 6 years down a few Soi's from me whilst on holiday ,i never went there ..I embarrass myself 🤦♂️Trev ,Don't ask me what i made in woodwork back in the 80s ,i was proud as punch and it took me 6 months of constant sand papering , but my mum god bless her and RIP mum thought different ..😊❤️Brilliant carving ,love the Thai's 😊You reading that on cam i could only think of what's happening to the Ukrainians ,sorry bud i know this is not the site to say .🤦♂️sorry .But thanks for taking the time out 👍🍺👍
Thank you for your comment mate glad you enjoyed the video
I have been there, and yes it is amazing.
Thank you for sharing
That is Magnificent Trev, will definitely be visiting there in April 👍
Well worth a visit my friend
The carving skills are amazing!
Much better than my woodwork skills LOL
That's wonder of the world people should go and see it
indeed
Was there in 2019 the place is mind blowing every single piece carved by hand, it really is a great day out for even the most hardened soi6 fans
I agree it is an amazing place
Great place and they keep building onto it.
mate it is as you said
Great video trev been there twice awesome place 👍👍
Thanks mate
I first went there with a bar girl from Bangkok and some of her family. Lek’s sister had a car, and a couple of children, and we were on a day trip to Nong Nooch Gardens and then the Temple of Truth. We had lunch at the restaurant. Her family was saying they would wait in the restaurant because it was too expensive. I was having none of that and paid for everyone to enter. They really really loved it. If you have a chance to bring Thais, who would otherwise never be able to afford it, please do it. They will love you for it.
Great share thank you
A Great vlog trev a great tour
Cheers mate
Thank you for sharing this. Very interesting.
Very welcome
Had to smile at how this shows a different side to Thai workmanship. The time, effort and attention to detail of this place is incredible... then you look at what is deemed acceptable when repairing pavements etc...mind you, i once stayed in a budget guesthouse and until then, i never knew you could fill a two inch gap around a sink with silicone alone! 😂😂😂
The craftsmen are not Thai. They are all from Myanmar. Such carpentry is an ancient art-form there.
That explains that then! 😁
100% mate, they could teach those pavement boys I thing or two
I went there before. And many temples. Amazing, being a carpenter myself. Looking forward to going again. 😍
As you said a great place
It reminds me about Sagrada Familia in Barcelona the big church they ar buildning. I must visit this place when i visit Pattaya
Thank you for sharing
Visited S.O.T. back in 2011 and I loved it, the sheer scale and vision of the place is awesome.Enjoyed this ,all the best.
Thank you mate and yes it is an amazing place
Just linked here from one of your later videos. I will definitely take a day out to visit and relax. It does look incredible to be honest. I can't quite beleive I've never visited before.
It's a great day mate
Gone from Dads Army to Bob The Builder 😂
Can we fuck it? Yes we can!
Though at upgrade was required lol
What an incredible place. Thank you Trev!
Very welcome
It’s amazing. Always recommend people that visit us to spend some quality time there. Definitely worth the admission fee.
100% agreed
One of your best videos for me Trevor. Phenomenal workmanship and building. Well done and thanks!
Thank you so much
Was a really amazing experience to visit the Sanctuary of Truth.
nice one
That is so amazing. Thank you for sharing Trev! We actually have many Buddist temples here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area none as intricate
We do have some great places here away from the Bar scene
Absolutely stunning location. Thanks for showcasing this. The carving is unbelievable. I would definitely go there now.
please do mate it's great
Wow! Another beautiful and fascinating look around. As someone who's homebound for a while your videos showing the amazing details of Thailand I thank you so much for what you do.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Been there twice and will go again as there is always something new to see.
yah changed a lot since I was last there
A good day out by the look of it, previous to this Vlog, I couldn't see that it was worth Bt500 as I thought it was a much, much smaller place. Admittedly, I should have done more homework on it, but didn't.
Would go now as I can see the value of the place so will definitely take a day out there and take a bar tour on the way back to Central Patts, Naklua is mostly a mystery to me.
Thanks for the walkabout there T, will pencil it in for sure.
To be honest the place is huge
@@Buzzinpattaya Yes, as I now know, just goes to show that nothing is as people think in Thailand and misconceptions are the norm, where the truth is it is much better. I wont make that mistake again. As I have said before, I wish this channel was on the go and the internet was as good as it is now before my 1st trip. Thanks again.
I'm only staying in Pattaya for 5 days however I'm in Thailand for 3 months, I am going to have to make this a day trip. Its just amazing how its all done its just beautiful. Thanks for the video Trev, stay safe mate
Have a fantastic time mate I am sure you will
Very enjoyable experience that . Bit of culture for a change. Nong nooch farm in the future as well please trev
On my to do list
Wow Trev, what a amazing place great video. Thanks mate.
No problem 👍
Can you imagine the upkeep on a place like that? Amazing 👏
daily and so much to do
Thoroughly enjoyed my day there, brought back some good memories...Thanks Trev...
Nice one thank you
Absolutely beautiful! Thank you, Trevor. I could spend days there doing photography.
A photographer's dream world
@@Buzzinpattaya Way back in the day, you could buy film by the 20 roll brick. I could easily go through 2 bricks there, probably more. Digital is so much better.
I am nuts about statues and carving. The talent is mind-boggling. I made a table tennis bat in woodwork by cutting the end off the storeroom broom for a handle. Man, did I cop it. Great vid, mate!
Haha brilliant
That's absolutely amazing, Cheer's Trev for another great video
Very welcome my friend
Trev, I can't wait to go there when I return to Pattaya. From your video, it offers enormous creative photo opportunities, Thank you for selecting here for a video.
Have a great time mate am sure you will
Looks great mate, I'll have to go 👍
Enjoy mate am sure you will
Thank you very much Trevor. I went here it is a spectacular thing to see. I hope everyone goes and see it it is well worth the time in the money.
Welcome mate a great place
I totally agree, Trev. That place is amazing. The craftsmanship is next level. The most amazing thing I love is how Hinduism, Buddhism, and some Norse mythology intertwined into the mythos in the craftsmanship of that place. I've always found the similarities between religion and mythology fascinating.
Thanks mate and yeah what a place
The guide has a Tagalog accent
No idea sorry
@@Buzzinpattaya Filipino, great English.
Definitely a filipina
Loren, the guide is from Philippines.
Yep, it's one of 8-10 places I take all visitors to the city when they come to see me. I have never had anyone who is not impressed.
The carpenters are all from Myanmar.
Nice one
i purposely held off watching this until i went to visit which i did 2 weeks ago, absolutely beautiful place. the elephants were there when i was there. will come visit next time im back. thanks trev
Nice one mate
Top place worth a visit I've been
Well said mate
OK Very nice seems worth a look. Now what about the bar crawls. Is there one on 1st April?
If that is a Friday the answer is yes
Its a really beautyful place, great memory. Good video Trevor, more like this. Silverlake vinery, Buddah mountain, gardens...
Coming soon mate coming soon
That was a beautiful change of pace.
thank you mate
Damn, so beutiful, also instagram friendly 😁
The strange thing about this place is their own Instagram page gets virtually no traffic
Great spot for a couple off hours mate .👌
Agreed
Thank you Trevor Last day for us in Pattaya. Omg. Brill. Did not know about. Thanks again. Keep it up. Pete
Thank you mate
Great vlog there Trevor, that place is unbelievable, rhe work and craftsmanship is unbelievable, ime joiner back home but that is spectacular 👌, hope to be there soon
Always recommend visiting this place
Great video, definitely will head there next trip, it's amazing what they can do
have a great time mate am sure you will
Yes it,went Feb.2020 I enjoyed it
Nice one mate
Your guide is a Filipina, I recognize her accent. Woodworking is a very rewarding accomplished skill. Love the smell of wood and the touch of my wood in my hands.
freshly sawn wood, ah mate what a smell
Great stuff Trev, I will definitely be visiting there when I get over there. Cheers.
Please do!
Awesome video Trevor, what a lot of work that has gone into the carvings and building of the Sanctuary of Truth. Oh and by the way that Helmet is a great improvement on the WW2 Japanese Helmet. Thanks for sharing.
haha love my helmet
Great walking tour Trev. It's been a while since I've been there. It truly has grown a lot! definitely worth another visit when I get back there. There is a sense of calm and peace when you visit there that you cannot feel anyplace else. A place to go when you need to recharge and find another perspective. Thanks Much!
nice one mate very welcome
Great video Trevor, I visit the Sanctuary of truth great place to visit, there's a restaurant on top of the hill. It over looks the sanctuary of truth from your the restaurant, a great place to eat (great food). Thanks Trevor fantastic walkabout, keep up the awesome videos.
Thank you for sharing and yes that restaurant is really nice
Vietnam have opened back up fully.. only a negative test pcr or blood. No need to be vaccinated. Let hope Thailand follows this pathway!
You should have been there in 1968 an you would have run like a coward.
I hope we follow very soon
thats a piece off art amazing
Indeed
Great video Trevor..been there a few times but I was always hungover..good to see it with a sober head..keep up the good work
haha welcome mate
Went there last week. Amazing place.
Glad you had a good time
Amazing talent they have its very inspiring. 👍🏻
very skilled
The lady guide has this distinct regional Filipino accent.
Gotcha
Brilliant Trevor I’ve been meaning to make my way down there this upcoming trip I will ..
Please do
Thanks for this trip that brought back pleasant memories for me.I also recommend the Crocodile farm and Nong Nouch too!
Will hit these places up when they reopen
