Hat Yai

A stay in the city requires a unique experience. Who would imagine shopping at the floating markets Thailand is famous for? Using few coins from the city’s business district on a tuk-tuk will take you to the Klong Hae Floating Market. Be ready to be served fresh Thai Dishes prepared on point with great care. The service is both customary and professional. The locals here serve people their orders using single hand baskets which are in return filled with money as the payment mode. Is this not a great experience?

Hat Yai Municipal Park is just all-in park. With lakes and dwindling hills, a stay at the city is exemplary. Visiting the park alone to view the gigantic Buddha statue may not be exploitive as there are still cable cars to ride or even deciding on park walk. Sometimes you may become tired and you just need a chilling stay at the park; trees here will get you sorted. Do you think you can walk to the top to view the Buddhas at its residence? If not then all sorts of motorbikes are here to take up through the winding trails.

The 35 meters high reclining Buddha is a must-visit statue while ta Hat Yai city. The Buddha is the third-largest in the world. As it leaves you confused over its height and size, its mischievous grin will make you stare even further. Do not fear to carry a few traditional goods from Hat Yai. The ornaments are sold here at the Buddha’s residence and you are free to carry a few of them home.
