The Million Years Stone Park & Pattaya Crocodile Farm! Get ready to be amazed by massive crocodiles, incredible ancient trees, and some truly unique rock formations. It’s an experience that combines natural beauty with an exhilarating peek into the reptile world – you won’t want to miss it
Don’t let the long name scare you – this spot is actually pretty awesome! Located just outside central Pattaya, it’s part peaceful botanical garden, part mini-zoo, and part adrenaline-pumping crocodile park. You’ll find massive ancient stone formations, exotic plants, and giant animals, including one of the largest crocodile collections in Thailand. It’s like stepping into a mix of Jurassic Park and a traditional Thai wildlife sanctuary.
What to See and Do
- Explore the Stone Park – Wander through surreal rock gardens with million-year-old petrified wood and strange stone shapes. It’s surprisingly peaceful and photogenic!
- Meet the Animals – The park is home to all kinds of animals, including camels, tigers, elephants, and rare birds. It’s like a small zoo with lots of variety.
- Watch the Crocodile Show – This is the star of the park! Trainers perform daring tricks with real, live crocs – think head-in-mouth level stuff (seriously!). It’s intense, exciting, and something you won’t forget.
- Feed the Crocs (if you dare) – For a small fee, you can even feed the crocodiles yourself – from a safe distance, of course.
- Photo Time – Want a pic with a baby crocodile or a tiger? There are photo stations around the park where you can safely snap some wild memories.
Why It’s Worth a Visit

- Close to the city – Just 15–20 minutes from Pattaya, it’s easy to reach for a quick half-day trip.
- Lots of space to walk and relax – Despite the action, the park is huge and not too crowded most days.
