  Get a nap in Bus Me and My family was planing to go Hat Yai by bus with a gang of 24 person include me ....  When you think of hat yai, you will think of Lee Garden plaza, central mall.. It's a shopping heaven for most people!  If you don't compare with the quality, everything there were so cheap!

I have done many researches regarding Hatyai before we went there so that we know what to do, where to go and what to eat and also most importantly the cost of it all.  people always get dumbfounded whenever they heard about this place.  Hat Yai (หาดใหญ่) or Hat Yai belongs to Songkhla, Southern province of Thailand.

Chang Puak Camp , Hatyai | Thailand

  No entrance fees, but there nothing for you there unless you take up the activities provided.  Chang Puak Camp where they allow you to ride the elephant for 500 Bath per person inclusive of water and fruits. let me tell you a little something about “elephant trekking” in Hatyai. It’s no jungle trek. You basically ride an elephant, like it’s a carnival ride. The elephant walks down a cement path, turns around and comes back. Of course, if they called the attraction “elephant walking over cement” it wouldn’t catch as much attention. As you’re on a hill, you do get a few nice views but that’s it. I had an elephant to myself with a guide. The guide sat on the elephant’s shoulders and hung on to a bullhorn, which made me nervous.. Evidently, the elephant had done the route enough times that it knew what to do Tips : They tried to sell accessories from elephant teeth. To avoid, just give small change to them and tell them you are not interested. So prepare small change swap it as ...

While Loke spends much attention on creating the special wantans, she does not neglect the q...

Buddhist temples , Hatyai | Thailand

  Naturally, you will expect to find Buddhist temples wherever you are in Thailand, and Hat Yai is no exception. Hat Yai is home to one of the largest reclining Buddhas in the world at Hat Yai Nai temple. If you've seen spectacular temples elsewhere in Thailand you may be a little disappointed with those in Hat Yai. Some temples in other parts of the country really do have a 'wow' factor, but I can't think of any in Hat Yai that will take your breath away. 'Na Zha' Temple LI-NA ZHA: Trickster God Boy of Childish Pranks and Tantrums.  Even if you are well-versed in Godly ways, it's just possible his story could stretch your credulity. Formerly a monstrous Immortal with three heads, eight arms and nine eyes, LI-NAZHA was sent down to Earth by the JADE-EMPEROR to subdue a plague of demons.  The Thai temples best known to foreigners are probably the ancient temples of Ayuthaya and Sukothai; the large, ornate temples of Bangkok and the central region; and maybe p...
