Information
Songkhla
is a southern border province, adjacent to the State of Kedah (Sai
Buri), Malaysia. It is an important port and coastal province of
Thailand since the old days with Amphoe Hat Yai as the southern
centre of commerce, transportation and rapid economic growth. The
province is ideal for tourism because of its two distinct characteristics:
the old buildings of Amphoe Mueang Songkhla, and the developed Amphoe
Hat Yai, separated by only about 30 kilometres.
The old part of Songkhla is located at the presentday Amphoe Sathing
Phra. Indians, Persians, and Arabs came to trade and called the
place “Singhla”. The name came from two islands with
the shape of crouching lions at the mouth of Songkhla lagoon. The
islands are presently called Ko Nu and Ko Maeo.
Songkhla occupies an area of 7,393 square kilometres, and is administratively
divided into 16 districts: Muang Songkhla, Ranot, Krasae Sin, Sathing
Phra, Singhanakhon, Khuan Niang, Rattaphum, Bang Klam, Hat Yai,
Na Mom, Chana, Thepha, Na Thawi, Saba Yoi, Sadao, and Khlong Hoi
Khong.
