Budget Scale
Editor Rating: 4-Despite its massive size and prominence as an international hub city, travelers can still do Bangkok on the cheap. It’s one of those rare cities where backpackers can get by on $15-$20US/day and luxury travelers can spend 20 times that.
Indie Travel Scale
Editor Rating: 8-There are a lot of touristy aspects to Bangkok, Khao San Road being the center of non-indie travel activity. But if you get away from the backpacker ghetto of Khao San and explore just a little bit, you can find treasure upon treasure in this amazing city.
