Bangkok

Bangkok was named the world's most visited city for 7 consecutive years by Mastercard's Global Destination Cities Index, drawing 22 million international arrivals annually. The city has 37 Michelin-starred restaurants including the street-food stall Jay Fai, which charges $35 for its crab omelette and has a 6-month waiting list -- a microcosm of a city where world-class experience and extraordinary value coexist within metres of each other.
