The food in Hatyai nothing great and infact If u are M'sian fior sure prepare to be slaughtered! RM10 for fried rice is usual there!! & sharkfin RM50/ small wok for 2!! I can get similar portion in Bangkok Chinatown for RM25 only!! ..Normal wantan mee or noodle is ~THB50 or RM5 ..that's more expensive than KL!!

The prices of items no longer cheaper in Hatyai compare to 15yrs ago....Abit dissapointed fo rthe past 5 years as I hv been to Hatyai almost every CNY except this Year...! ..Even their foot massage is more expensive than KL or Bangkok at RM25 when u can get RM20 in KL & RM12-RM15 in BKK 

But going thru the many shopping alleys in Hatyai is no doubt interesting especially most of activities happening at side lane & back lanes...similar to Bangkok Chinatown   

did you even bother to read page 1?

Hatyai train station was in the middle of the town. It is walkable to Lee Garden Plaza and Kim Yong Market.  I so far using Grab car and Grab tut-tut. If you travel in group, Grab tut-tut is good choice. Basically Grab tut-tut is much cheaper than normal tut-tut.
Google will tell you all you need to know. There are guides in Chinese, Malay, and English.
There is a way but is illegal. If get caught, he/she would be detained by immigration as illegal trespasser/immigrant. Not recommended as everytime I drive pass the Thai border, I can see many get caught especially foreigners, handcuffed.
