| Bangpra was originally built in 1958, one of the first golf course in the Pattaya area. Then in 1988, the course and facilities were completely updated as a joint venture between the Tourism Authority of Thailand and Japan Golf Professional Incorporated. This was the first project as a purposely built golf facility to promote golf tourism in Thailand and today remains one of the best kept mature courses in the Pattaya area.
Bangpra is laid out over undulating land in a gently sloping valley surrounded by densely wooded forests. There are lots of tropical flora and bougainvillea bushes of all colors on every hole, making Bangpra one of Pattayas prettiest golf courses
The fairways are well kept and all the greens roll fast and true making putting particularly pleasurable, which in addition to two holes with island greens are the highlights of this golf course.
A luxurious modern clubhouse comes lavishly furnished with locker rooms featuring Japanese style baths. The club house restaurant specializes in Japanese cuisine which makes after golf dining particularly well suited to those who prefer this type of food.
The mature course at Bangpra is a nice change from the newer and more heavily promoted Pattaya golf courses and is a good choice for Pattaya bound golfers who prefer well established golf courses over modern man made links.
