Songkhla
Songkhla is an important city in southern Thailand and plays the economic and transportation hub of southern Thailand. The majority of residents here are Chinese, mainly Hakka and Chaozhou people. Many signboards written in Chinese can be seen on the streets. In addition to Chinese and Thai, locals also speak Hakka, Teochew and even Malay. Songkhla does not have the busy traffic in Bangkok, and there are very few high-rise buildings, giving us a sense of leisure and simplicity. Whether it’s department store shopping, local delicacies or Internet beauty check-in cafes, Hat Yai has a lot of them! Especially at low prices, you can buy finely handmade jewelry.
