- John KCosta Mesa, CA1,396 contributionsNice park, good place for jogging. The running path (red) goes around the lake and takes about 20 minutes to walk around, and is mostly shaded, which is very nice on a hot day. There's a children's playground, some food sellers, and toilets.Written 27 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Gene R JSilver Spring, MD9,113 contributionsWe stopped here with our rental car coming from HDY Airport to our hotel in Hat Yai. It's one block off the highway down a narrow lane. While parking was easy to find in the temple complex, we walked around many temples to find the large building housing the 50’ high exposed face of the 115’ long Reclining Buddha. Circumnavigating the complete figure, we discovered its interior mausoleum.
It’s impressive but plain compared to the splendid 151’ gilded Buddha in Bangkok’s Wat Pho.
To exit, we needed to navigate a full block of a narrow street market to re-access the highway.Written 28 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Throughout the booking process, any inquiries I had were promptly addressed by their knowledgeable and friendly support team. From start to finish, the experience was smooth, convenient, and exceeded my expectations in every aspect. They were incredibly helpful in providing information about routes, schedules, and even recommendations for my trip, ensuring that I had all the necessary details to plan my journey with ease.Written 20 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- DdsKuala Lumpur, Malaysia147 contributionsLots of items ranging from clothes, inner wear, bags, souvenirs, footwear etc. at affordable prices. The area is clean and well lit but it can get pretty hot so ladies, if you’re gonna take your time shopping, I’d suggest to bring a folding fan to help counter the heat. Food stalls are located on the upper level.Written 16 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- stroopwaflDepok, Indonesia1 contributionI came to Hat Yai with bus and after i arrived earlier to hotel i decided to go there while i wqs waiting for check in to hotel.
when i tried to access google how to go there, some options are with tuk-tuk and grab. but i kinda afraid to use tuk-tuk because i heard a lot scam stories, so i take grab to go there and the distance from my hotel to the place is about 10km and it cost 120bath.
Actually my decision to take grab is BIG WRONG! because it really far from the city, no transportation and such a quiet way. when i was nearly arrived then i decided to back to the city because i worried if i cant come back because there was no transportation there!
My Grab Driver never been to this place before and i asked her can i just take picture here for 5 minutes then we back again? Luckyly she never been to this place before and she also joine to look around the tample.
There are a lot of dogs, and i didnt paid entrance ticket because there was nobody. Actually this tample really amazing, i really enjoyed exploring this unique temple.
after that we back again to the city with manual order (grab).Written 29 July 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

What a waste. A very beautiful and well maintain natural beauty. There's 7 level off fall but being to level 2 is good enough. Big schools of Mahseer Barb. About 25 km from Hatyai airport and the road leading to the sanctuary is excellent with very little traffic. Just before the entrance there's a cafe by the river where one can have a meal or just rest after the hike. Highly recommended and will definitely visit again and again.Written 9 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ruth o3 contributionsThe waterfall was full on due to the raining season. Beautiful! Better than most that I have seen in Asia. Getting up to the next station (3) will be hard for some.Written 16 January 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Joey KKuala Lumpur, Malaysia565 contributionsAnother interesting market to visit when in Hatyai. You can buy almost everything here at bargain prices. However it get crowded during weekends. The main road in front of Kim Yong is a wet market in the morning, lots of fresh produce to buy as well. Once inside the market it's a maze and you can get lost. Not many people notice but there's a household and electrical section on level 1. You can get some cheap electrical items here as well.

- Kellie GMelbourne, Australia22 contributionsGreat market- lots of locally made bits and t-shirts and Asian fashion.

- pianocelloShah Alam, Malaysia1,406 contributionsMost visitors to Hat Yai won't think of coming here but you should. It's a very informative museum with English captions and a really good collection of stuffed wildlife, rocks, seashells etc. There's even a play area with toy dinosaurs if your kids would like to play some more.Written 29 October 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
