THAILAND

Located in the center of Southeast Asia, Thailand is home to 64-million people, of which about 95% of its population is Buddhist. Buddhism plays a huge part in the lives of Thai people which can be seen through their beautiful monuments and temples such as the Wat Chaiwatthanaram, located in Ayutthaya or the Grand Palace in Bangkok.

Offering 32 Thailand Baht for every one U.S. dollar, Thailand is a wonderful country, full of Linkhistory and tradition, worth visiting. From its beautiful temples and arquitecture, to its exotic food, there is a bit of everything for everyone.

The Thai cuisine consists of five fundamental tastes: sweet, spicy, sour, bitter, and salty, with its everyday ingredients such as garlic, lime, lemon, chilies, and fish sauce.

But for those who want more than just exploring new dishes and want some action while they travel, then Muay Thai, or better known as Thai boxing, will do the fix. After all, Thai boxing is the national sport in this country.

Before leaving, make sure to experience Thailand’s beautiful nature while riding on the back of an elephant as you cross a river and pass a waterfall.

For under $5 dollars a day, a tourists can live like royalty, tasting some of the best cuisine and visiting historical temples, while witnessing dangerous Thai boxing. If you want to live like a King without breaking your bank, than Thailand is the country you are looking for.
