If you are my old friends, you would certainly know Phatthalung quite well. If you are my new friends and you may want to know about Phatthalung, you may look back at some information and photos from my several old posts.
Phatthalung is my hometown. Although it’s small, I’m proud to be part of it and I was happy while staying there during my childhood.
I can say that Phatthalung is a paradise for nature lovers like me as there are many fascinating places that have unspoiled nature.
The way of life of people in Phatthalung is so simple but interesting. Most of them are farmers, so you will see many rice fields in Phatthalung. The bright green color can surely relax your eyes.
In the old days, we used cows or buffaloes to plow the rice fields, but nowadays we use plowing machines instead. A few cows and buffaloes can be seen presently.
Here below are their cute sculptures for good memories of how important they were in the past.
I believe that the ancient Thai houses can be described well how we lived very close to nature; i.e. the houses were built with natural woods or bamboo, etc., as below sample.
It’s unfortunate that we seldom see ancient Thai houses like this nowadays.
If possible, I would love to go back and live close to nature like before....
