Everything You Need to Know for Visiting Pai, Thailand, Pai, Thailand

Pai, Thailand. Have you heard of it? Nestled in the mountains of Northern Thailand, far from the bustling streets of Bangkok and the tourist crowds of Phuket and Chiang Mai, lies a little hippie haven that goes by the name of Pai. I visited Pai for 3 weeks during my 1-year trip through Asia and collected all the things that I think that you need to know for visiting Pai, Thailand in this blog post. I am going to take you on a journey through Pai, from how to get there to the best things to do and places to eat, work, party, and stay. Enjoy!

Pai is a little paradise with a cozy, laid-back vibe and offers a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. There are waterfalls, mountains, rice paddy fields, temples, viewpoints and plenty of coffee bars waiting to be explored. Pai is no longer a hidden gem these days. Actually it is quite a busy and small hippie town, but nevertheless Pai is a fun and relaxed place to visit.

Pai’s relative remoteness is part of its allure. To reach Pai, you’ll need to embark on a scenic journey, either by minivan, motorbike, or car. The most popular route takes you through a winding road known as the “Pai Highway.” If you’ve got a stomach for hairpin turns and breathtaking mountain vistas, it’s a ride you won’t forget. The road from Chiang Mai to Pai has a total of 762 curves, so do yourself a favor and take any type of motion sickness pill. You can also opt to get one of those menthol inhalers in any 7-11 store! You can thank me later. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
