Backpacking Route Thailand

There are several ways to explore Thailand. It depends on your travel plans, but the most popular route is from Bangkok to Chiang Mai (also visiting Pai and Chiang Rai). From Chiang Mai, you can head south to Koh Tao/Koh Samui or Krabi, continuing on to the Phi Phi Islands or Koh Lipe.

Cities in Thailand

The largest city, and also the capital, is Bangkok. If you're traveling outside of Europe for the first time, this city can be overwhelming and you might experience a (small) culture shock.

In addition, Chiang Mai in the north and Phuket in the south are the other largest cities in Thailand. There are many smaller towns in between, some less well-known than others.

Food in Thailand

You'll find delicious food in Thailand, whether you're in Northern or Southern Thailand. You'll find street food everywhere, and this is where you'll mostly get your food. From Thai curries and veggie fried spring rolls to classic Pad Thai.
