Northern Thailand
Top 6 in Top 10 Cheapest Countries To Travel
The north of Thailand is affordable for those on a low budget. As one proceeds south, the expense of living begins to double, treble, and even quadruple. Stay up north if you're short on time and money for your Thailand trip! Even in famous tourist destinations such as Chiang Mai and Pai, you can readily find modest rooms for less than $5. If you stick to street food (to each her own, but why eat spaghetti when you can have pad Thai, am I right? ), you will not only save money, but your experience will be far more authentic and delightful.
In terms of activities, you actually don't need a lot of money to have a good time because most things, such as seeing the White Temple, hiking, or gathering three other people from your hostel to rent a car and go on day trips, are all reasonably priced.
