Cactus Garden allows aviation geeks to view some aircraft at the tarmac. I managed to take a little peek of the cockpit when it was opened. At this point, we started our descent into Hat Yai. This is the viewing gallery at Terminal 1. This is Terminal 1 Departure hall (Airside) It's quite a pleasant terminal to hang out.
