#Travel Plan Giveaway I must say that we traveled from Yala City to Betong by private car. In the morning, we will stop to see the sea of ​​fog first. Day 1: - Aiyerweng Sea of ​​Fog Arrived at 8 am. People were starting to disperse, but the fog was still thick. Parked the car at the parking lot. After that, there will be 2 rows to take you to the skywalk, the sea of ​​fog viewpoint. If anyone is afraid of heights or clear glass, it will be a bit scary. After seeing the sea of ​​fog, head to - Hot springs. Soak, boil eggs, eat papaya salad next to the hot springs. After relaxing in the soak, go to Piyamit Tunnel. - Piyamit Tunnel is a tunnel where communists hid during the world war. Go see history, see the atmosphere of the mountain range. It's a bit tiring because you have to walk up a little steeply, but the path is good. After going to the tunnel, we returned to our accommodation in Betong City. Day 2: - Mongkolrit Tunnel After having breakfast, before going back, I didn't forget to stop to take a picture of Mongkolrit Tunnel at the tunnel that cuts through to the other side. Then go to the winter flowers. - Winter flowers It is a garden with many kinds of flowers and beautiful garden design. There are many photo spots for tourists to visit. After taking pictures, continue your journey home. #Betong

#favouriteitinerary #hatyai #dannok#nightmarket#floatingmarket #stainlesssteeltemple #hatyaimunicipalpark Hey everyone! I just returned from an epic road trip from Malaysia to the enchanting towns of Dannok and Betong in Thailand, and I can't wait to share the highlights! 🌟 In Dannok, I dove into the vibrant night market, indulging in Thai street food delights like Pad Thai and Tom Yum Goong. Betong treated me to its famous Betong Chicken, fresh market produce, and the heavenly Pa-ad fresh milk bread and drink. 🍞🥤 The floating market was a shopper's paradise! Exploring Dannok's Sadao Forest Park and Hatyai Municipal Park provided serene nature escapes, while Betong's Clock Tower, Piyamit Tunnel, and Betong Hot Springs showcased the town's unique charm. 🌄✨ The drive was made even more exciting with a stop at Wat Phra Mahathat Chedi Phra Phutthatham Banphot, the world's first stainless steel temple, which was simply awe-inspiring. The scenic drive was a blend of lush landscapes and local life, making every moment of the journey an adventure. This trip was the perfect mix of adventure, culture, and mouthwatering food. Can't wait to hit the road again!

#newyearnewtrip The Piyamit Tunnel is a historical site located in the southern part of Thailand, in Pattani Province, near the border with Malaysia. It is a former military tunnel and an important part of the communist forces’ strategic defense against government troops and counterinsurgency forces. There are a number of rooms, living quarters, and escape routes inside the Piyamit Tunnel. It is a great experience to explore the tunnel as a strategic defense previously. It’s best to travel with a local guide.

I love nature!

Another place that should not be missed if you visit Betong, Yala Province, is the Piyamit Tunnel. Walk inside the tunnel, cool and comfortable, see nature, 1000-year-old trees, the staff cleans them, and walk comfortably.

#2024wish There is this legendary Piyamit Tunnel in Betong Friendship Village. The entrance fee costs 40bht (US$1.20) for foreigners. This tunnel was built 1977, 1 kilometre long, 5 to 6 ft wide, completed in 3 months by 50 workers ! The start of our hiking on concrete steps and paths, surrounded by abundance greeneries, fresh cool air and pleasant environment !

Located in Betong, Thailand. Entrance fees for adult, Malaysian: 30 baht. Have to climb the stairs before you get to the exact tunnel. Worth to try! You can also take picture with the millennium trees that is believed had been here for about more than 1000 years. There is a shop selling drinks when you already reach the top. So don't worry if you think you're going to get thirsty. 😉

The air in the tunnel is very fresh, comfortable, quiet, cool. Driving around Betong city is very good. The food is delicious. I like that wherever we stop, we are always welcomed by the locals. And everyone is always giving advice. If we stop somewhere we don't know, they are always ready to give us advice on various things. The people around here are very kind. And there are many places to visit. Very natural.

For those who love historical tourism, don't miss the "Piyamit Tunnel" located in Betong District, Yala Province. The tunnel was dug by the Kuomintan Chinese group who migrated to the south, but the government called this group of people the Malayan Chinese Communists. This tunnel is etched in the memories of many people. Time may have made the history of the Piyamit Tunnel fade from memory, but the traces of this place highlight the past with a new feeling. The various trees at the entrance of the Piyamit Tunnel help disguise the 1-kilometer long tunnel. #visitYala

Piyamit Tunnel... Worth visiting THB60 for foreigner

#bucketlistreboot It’s one of the attractions of Piyamit Tunnels. This place is definitely worth visiting because it is next to the interesting museum of the partisan movement and the catacombs. The tree is one of the largest that I have seen in Thailand. #trees #thailand
