#tripflytoaskfornewyear Sofia fried chicken is an old and famous shop of Hat Yai people.

After leaving the center of Hat Yai city quite a bit, you will find the "Songkhla Central Mosque" or "Dinul Islam Central Mosque". Located in Khlong Hae Subdistrict, Hat Yai District, on the main road into Songkhla Province. 🌳 To be honest, it looks beautiful from a distance. When you get close, it is very difficult to take pictures because it is high, wide and big. The further you go inside, the more spacious and magnificent it becomes. It is built on beautiful Islamic architecture. It stands out with a pond in front that is more than 200 meters long. I recommend that it is most beautiful during sunset.
