Yala, a small town full of charm and deep stories of the South. mr.hotsia had the opportunity to experience the nighttime atmosphere of this city firsthand. Let me tell you, the nightlife in Yala is not as quiet as many think; instead, it is full of vibrant lights and lively energy beyond expectations.

After exploringYala Morning Marketwhich is filled with fresh local products like fish and seafood in the morning, mr.hotsia took a short rest before heading out to experience another side of Yala at night. Strolling through the city at night has its own unique charm. The lights from shops and main streets brightly contrast with the dark sky, creating a lively and bustling atmosphere that is truly surprising.

One of the destinations mr.hotsia did not miss was paying respect to Luang Por Tuad atWat Chang Haiwhich is a famous and highly revered temple in the area. This temple is located not far from downtown Yala and is respected by Buddhists in the three southern border provinces.

Besides tranquility, the temple also offers interesting historical and local cultural stories to explore.

After that, mr.hotsia returned to the city center to experience the lights and lifestyle of Yala’s people at night.
