Thailand, agreed upon many backpackers to be ‘not the most beautiful but definitely the most fun country’ to travel through in Asia. With its picturesque mountain trails and laid-back atmosphere in the north, it’s a little cheap-ass paradise on earth.
Meanwhile the tropical paradise islands in the southern region such as Koh Samui, Phi Phi Islands, Similan Islands, Koh Tao, Phuket and many more all have stunning beaches that attract many tourists from around the world. The crystal-clear waters, white sandy beaches and vibrant marine life, hidden in underwater caves and colorful reefs, are gems for diver enthusiasts, snorkelers, or beach lovers. The ‘land of smiles’, covered in traditional festivals, historical sites, beautiful nature and of course a legendary cuisine (who can resist a good Pad Thai or Tom Yum Goong from all the amazing markets there?) offers the perfect holiday destination or getaway for adventurous expats, luxurious honeymooners and budget backpackers.
