Phatthalung, Province at Songkhla Lake, Thailand

The province spans across diverse landscapes with limestone mountains, wetlands, and the expansive Thale Noi Waterfowl Park along the western coast of Songkhla Lake.

During the 14th century, this region, known as Mardelong in Malay, became one of twelve royal cities under the governance of the Ayutthaya Kingdom.

The province maintains the traditions of Nang Talung shadow puppetry and Nora dance performances, which demonstrate the southern Thai performing arts heritage.

Transportation within the province relies on the Phatthalung Railway Station and road networks, with the nearest airport located 66 kilometers away in Trang.

The Ok Thalu mountain formation features a natural tunnel through its limestone structure, creating a geographical formation found nowhere else in Thailand.
