Stopover in Hat Yai

"You're spending 3 nights in...Hat Yai?" our Malaysian friends asked, incredulously, when we told them of our plans. Hat Yai, of all places? There's nothing to do there!

Our impression was: a) we are quite happy to do nothing, and b) in any case, there's plenty to do. For example, visiting one of the several temples in the area. I've included a couple of pictures of one of the more interesting temples, made mostly of steel, which I visited while it was pouring with rain.

We also found this cool outdoor exhibition consisting of pictures of locals. Overall we had a nice time here as a not-so-brief stopover.
