Hatyai City Municipal Park

#hatyaiattractions
More Than Just Nature—Cultural and Educational Hub
Title: Beyond the Temples: Astronomy and Sculptural Art
Beyond the obvious religious and natural attractions, Hatyai Municipal Park is also a growing cultural and educational center. It features the Hat Yai Astronomical Observatory, a modern facility where visitors can learn about science and the stars, offering a nice contrast to the ancient stone statues. Throughout the park, you’ll find other statues and monuments, including the impressive King Rama V statue, and various pavilions that showcase the region’s diverse cultural influences. The variety of statues—Buddhist, Hindu (Brahma), and Chinese (Guan Yin)—reflects the beautiful multiculturalism of Southern Thailand. Allow ample time to explore the walking paths, which are often decorated with countless bells, creating a serene, melodious backdrop for reflection.
