    • In any city/town/village that I have the opportunity to visit, a visit to the local market is always on my itinerary... By visiting the local market, you will be able to see and experience the way of life of locals... you can see what type of food and know what their daily neccesities are...

    In Hatyai, we visit the Kim Yong market early in the morning, which is the best time to visit such places... Situated at Suphasarn Rangsan Road, the market is comparatively big, with stalls spilling onto the surrounding road and lanes... It has the traditional wet market as well as the many stalls selling food, fruits, flowers, prayer things, retail shops selling everyday neccesities...

    There are also stalls selling food which are sold to market goers to offer alms to the monks... Me and Diana bought some food as alms to the monks and received prayers from them as we offer them the food...

     Wish you can be more specific on the prices in baht like price of some dishes. Passed this place before it looks like the pricy kind.    		Azri_Azmi Thu Aug 17, 2006 12:43 UTC
     Hi Chia, good information on Hatyai. Relatives from northern always persuade me to visit Hatyai. So, planned to go early next year. Thanks for the info.
