At first glance it’s hard to recognize, what religion this temple belongs to – distinctively Thai architecture and Catholic crosses. Even the bell tower reminds more those towers that are usually erected in Buddhist temples. Thai architectural style is the most unusual thing about St. Nikolaus church in Pattaya.

The church is operational and you can visit a mass. Sunday masses are held in English (8:30, 16:00) and in Korean languages (17:30). Also there are masses held in English on Wednesday and on 1st Friday of each month at 18:30 and on Saturday at 18:00. Note that there are no air-conditioners, only fans.
