Thailand : Hatyai



The Rajthanee Hotel is built at the back of the locomotive.It is good for backpacker who wants to put up one night in Hatyai then then proceed to Bangkok.










1.Hatyai is a city in southern Thailand near the boundary to Malaysia.The name Hat Yai is a short version of " Ma Hat Yai ," meaning big Ma Hat (Thai) tree,a relative of jackfruits.
2.History of Hatyai -Hatyai original name was Khok Sa-Met Choon.It was due to the investments of Khun Niphatchinnkhon (Jia Gi Si from 1886 to 1972,a Hakka Chinese),the railway contractor for the reilway connection from Nakhon Si Thammarat to Pattani.Hatyai quickly grew into a small town.
3.In 1995 it was upgraded to city status(thesaban nakhon)

Kampong with nearby amenities

You can see the banana trees along the road.This type of scenery is getting less and less as development take place over time.This is the beautiful scenery you can see but only in kampong and it is very relaxing while you drive your car. This is a kampong road which have been upgrated over time.This road is two way and single file. Looking at the photo there is a river on the right hand side which is not visible in this photo.This type of beautiful scenery is geeting less and less due to human developement .

Dog looking for food

This dog looked sad as the road is clean and no left over food for this poor dog.This is the opposite of what I have read in the newspaper which read like " Dog is man best friend "This
statement is true.The are dog who work as guard dog,hunting dog,rescue dog and etc..etc.In this photo show how man treat his best friend.This particular dog must be man' s enemy then.On the other hand dog is is also lovely and obey his master.While I was on holiday in Hatyai,Thailand one dog was barking at me infront of a shop.The shopowner who is Thai spoke in Thai language and told the dog to stop barking and sit down.The dog just did that.This is a Thai dog.Dog understand the language of their master.


One of the two dogs must be tired and decided to take a rest.
