nakhon si thammarat

Thailand

Good for those who want to avoid crowds and travel at a slow pace, not for those seeking nightlife or high spending. Best time to visit is November to February, when it's cool. Budget around 500-800 CNY per person. City transport is easy, with cross-area travel under 30 minutes. Must-visit: Old Town and Khao Samae Dam. Skip the night market, as it's too commercialized. Don't hail a taxi outside attractions, as it's likely to be overcharged.
