Located in Hat Yai Municipal Park, the Phra Phutthamongkol Maharaj statue is one of the tallest standing Buddhas in southern Thailand. Covered in golden paint, it gleams in the sunlight and stands as a symbol of Hat Yai’s spiritual heart. Visitors often climb up to this spot or take the cable car to admire the statue and enjoy the incredible city views. The atmosphere is peaceful, with locals coming to pray and tourists taking photos. It’s one of the most iconic landmarks of Hat Yai and a highlight of any park visit.
