The
Institute for Southern Thai Studies
The
Institute for Southern Thai Studies on Ko Yo has an excellent
Folklore Musuem with exhibits covering religious art, beads,
pottery, textiles and a number of other fascinating subjects.
On the grounds are a number of attractive gardens including
ones devoted to bamboo culture and medicinal herbs. There
are also a number of houses which are examples of traditional
Southern Thai architecture, and a tower from which you can
get a memorable view of Songkhla Lake and Songkhla City. The
admission fee is quite modest for Thai people, slightly more
for foreigners. The Institute and the Folklore Museum are
open daily from 8.30 am to 5.30 pm.
