This is a beautiful and unique temple that is probably nothing like other temples you have seen in Thailand. The bells are contribute to the serene atmosphere. There are a couple of issues you need to be aware. There is a wide open space in front of the temple where you have to take off your shoes and depending on whether it is a really hot day or raining could be quite inconvenient, Also as some have pointed, there are mosquitoes in the evening so take the usual precaution.

A trip here is surely a feast for the senses where you will be mesmerized by the alluring waterfalls! Majestic in size, the stones are tall and the water gushes down mercilessly from above. It runs into a stream below where fishes flourish in overwhelming quantity. A picturesque mother nature creation, you'll find yourself busy with photo taking in the most Instagram fitting scenery. There's a 200 baht entrance fee for foreigner and you need a car to get to this park.

I took the tour to Kho Hong mountain through the hotel I was staying in. We went by car and the day was having a slight gentle rain. It is a beautiful place where you you can enjoy Hat Yai from a high place. In the top there are whirship places with temples. Easily you can see Buddhism, Chinese, and hindosim religions emerge together in different statues. You need comfortable shoes to climb the stairs to different temples. It is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Hat Yai.

We did a trip on a long tail boat around Songkhla Lake at around 5PM. it was a perfect time as it has cool down abit. It was interesting to see the old town area from the water. Many houses on the water are spectacular and we also visited the fisherman village which was also quite interesting to see.

Big, beautiful and lively in the evenings, this park is more than a park with a large female Buddha statue offering stunning views of the city as well as a cable car to the top of the mountain where a wat offers stunning views of the region. The park fills up with folks from the city gather every evening to picnic near the water fountain so we recommend going in the afternoon and ending with a picnic of your own from the food stalls all over the place. Enjoy!

Reviewed By jackw53 - London, United Kingdom
This is a must visit - to get to the top there is a rail way lift which costs 50 bahts - 30 up and 20 down. There is a route to walk but the hill is very steep and there are many monkeys to navigate which can be intimidating by their sheer number. At the top there are so many view points you are spoiled for choice. The hill top is an active temple so you need to respect the various shrines. A good time to visit is early morning for the quiet and late evening for the sunset.
