It's "Khao Chi Jan" (Chi Jan Hill) not far from Yan Sangwararam temple.

The Sanctuary of Truth is worth considering. It's a bit expensive at 500 baht, but those who have been there say it's well worth the money.

Rising dramatically above the seafront on Rachvate Cape just north of Pattaya, the Sanctuary of Truth is the world's largest construction of hand-carved wood, intended to showcase Asian religious statuary art through the ages (Thai, Indian, Cambodian, Indonesian and Chinese). It's 100m from wing to wing and 105m tall.

Is it true that it will never gets done, not because of funding problems but due to infinite details and woodcrafts difficulties?

or actually it is ging to be finished?, I think in the past decade...last 5 years or so it seems progressing faster than 26 years before...:)

If i'm not wrong, the sanctuary of truth is in north Pattaya.

But Wat Yanasangwararam is down south outside Pattaya, maybe near Jomtien??

OMG! google it! it's easy.
