Wat Hat Yai Nai Reclining Buddha Temple

This temple is actually located in the city of Hatyai. Since I drove to this temple, it is not easy to find without a GPS coordinate (below).

It is located on Phetkasem Road near Khlong U Taphao Bridge, this temple is home to Phra Phuttha Hattha Mongkhon. If not mistaken, it is near a school but there are many parking spaces available here.

From the entrance, you walk further in until you meet this huge temple. When I say it is huge, it is really huge.

No wonder that, Phra Phuttha Hattha Mongkhon is considered as the third largest reclining Buddha in the world with a size of 35-meter tall and 10-meter wide. Even when I get closer, I can’t fit the reclining Buddha in to the camera frame, I need a fish eye lens to accomplish it.
