    Yala is the southernmost province of Thailand, with an area of 4,521 square kilometres. It is the only landlocked province in the south. Yala is the border province with an interesting history, culture, and beautiful scenery. The province has a unique mixture of cultural heritage of several groups: Thai, Chinese, and Malay. The city centre has systematic town planning and is one of the educational centres of the south as well.

    The word "Yala" was derived from the local word "yalo" meaning "fish net". Yala used to be a part of Pattani, a colony of the Sukhothai Kingdom. In B.E. 2310 when Ayutthaya fell to the Burmese, the southern colonies became independent. During the reign of King Rama I of the Rattanakosin Dynasty, the King sent his brother, Khrom Phra Ratchawangbowon Maha Surasihanat to take Pattani. In B.E. 2351, the King had Pattani separated into 7 smaller colonies, namely Mueang Pattani, Mueang Sai Buri, Mueang Nong Chik, Mueang Yaring, Mueang Ra Ngae, Mueang Raman, and Mueang Yala. Yala had changed its rulers many times before Monthon was abolished in B.E. 2476 and finally became one of the provinces of Thailand.

    There are street stalls and small restaurants all over Yala. Like the rest of Thailand you are never far away from food. Yala is not used to westerners or tourists so just smile a lot and point at the food you want. Many people understand rudimentary english so say the kind of meat you want and go from there there.
  • filter_dramaDrink
    There are a few watering holes, but keep in mind this is a majority Muslim area and you may offend someone with your drinking. Alcohol is available and drank in considerable quantities by the local non-Muslims, but getting inebriated and making a ruckus is not advisable. Prices here are very reasonable.
    *Western style Thai-run and patronized coffee shop with free wifi and an English menu. A good place to get your bearings upon arrival in Yala.

    This place looks worlds better than Chang Lee and it's cheaper. You can choose a 'kareoke' girl off of the wall when you come in for 200 baht, but that's standard around these parts. If you don't want one no problem. There's a 2 hour Thai massage accross the street for 240 THB and several discoteques and kareoke bars. All seem to be thinly veiled fronts for prostitution.
    * This place is bustling compared to My House or Chang Lee. The rooms are simple but tidier than the Chang Lee, although with a very loud air conditioning. You must pay a 350 THB deposit for the minibar when you check in; however, you receive all of it back when you check out if you've not used the minibar. Wireless internet access can be had in the lobby for free. They have a cafe and restaurant as well as a discotheque in the area. There does however also appear to be some prostitution in the area. Room rate can be negotiated to 450 THB.
    * Rooms are nice and clean. Free WiFi in rooms. 350 THB deposit for mini bar. Very centrally located, just 150-200m from Railways Station: one block strait and to the left. Appears to be the most reputable hotel in town according to locals.
    * Rooms are very simple, fan, bathroom inside. No WiFi. Hotel is closed from 22:00 till 6:00.

    In 2004, long-simmering resentment in the southern-most Muslim-majority provinces burst into violence in [wiki=2595092a476724be09e01e7aa492a093]Narathiwat[/wiki], [wiki=92a1b40ef8355ae82afd88186939dae3]Pattani[/wiki] and Yala provinces. Some rebel groups have threatened foreigners, and three foreigners were killed in bombings in [wiki=fa17b0c53057db3ac8a9e18c74192c43]Hat Yai[/wiki] (in neighbouring [wiki=8b4523c5c3e5fd735f99ef239673217a]Songkhla Province[/wiki]) in September 2006, but while targets have included hotels, karaoke lounges and shopping malls, westerners have not been singled out for attacks. If you are polite, respectful and smile a lot you don't have much to worry about. Do not dress in overly revealing clothing. There are soldiers all over the town, but they are there to keep you safe and keep the peace.
