Pattaya's identify progressed out of the march of Phraya Tak (later King Taksin) and his military from Ayutthaya to Chanthaburi. This took location earlier than the fall of the past capital to the Burmese invaders in 1767.

When his armed forces showed up at the bounds of what's now Pattaya, he encountered the troops of Nai Klom, who attempted to intercept him. When the two leaders met face to face, Nai Klom was awed by Phraya Tak's dignified manner and his army's strict discipline. He then surrendered not having a battle. The location the two armies confronted each other was called Thap Phraya, which means the Soldiers of the Phraya. This was later changed to Phatthaya, which happens to mean the wind blowing coming from the southwest to the northeast at the beginning of the rainy season. Today the city is officially know as Pattaya.

For centuries, Pattaya was a tiny fishing neighborhood. But a alter transpired on April 26, 1961, when the principal group of about 100 American servicemen who were fighting in the Vietnam Conflict arrived in Pattaya for relaxation. Out of this beginning, Pattaya was a popular beach resort which now attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors. Fishermen's huts along the beach were replaced by resort hotel and shopping malls. Fishing vessels were adapted to turn out to be tourist boats.
