7. Chiang Mai, Thailand
The district of Chiang Mai and its city of the equivalent name are well known by retirees, especially those coming from the West. It attracts people with its great weather, rich history, and distinctive culture. The heart of the city lies within the old city walls, where ancient and modern Buddhist temples coexist.
If you prefer something more modern, don’t worry. The city has grown beyond the ancient walls and now offers mega malls, multinational grocery and department stores and various other modern establishments. And not to mention that high quality of life within Chiang Mai is coupled with a low cost of living. A couple is able to live comfortably for as little as $1,100 per month, and for a price of $20 you will have no problem visiting an English speaking doctor.
