A list of top ten most economical cities to spend a vacation around the world is out. India tops any other country of most economical destinations with four of it's cities making this list. The worst destinations for your vacation cost wise would be New York where I am spending my two weeks family vacation now, Dubai, London, Singapore... Yes, cities where the average income is high are also bad for your pocket when choosing a vacation spot.
Something to note is that New Delhi which made the tenth spot on this list is actually the worst destination for Indians themselves as the average income in India falls below the level to enjoy visiting or living in New Delhi. Before you start criticizing the Indian government, I have the same feeling myself visiting New York from Ohio, the cost of visiting/living in New York for Americans is the same like that for Indians visiting/living in New Delhi.
Now let's look at the top ten list:
1 - Almaty, Kazakhstan.
2 - Lagos, Nigeria.
3 - Bangalore, India.
4 - Karachi - Pakistan.
5 - Algiers, Algeria.
6 - Chennai, India.
7 - Mumbai, India.
8 - Kiev, Ukraine.
9 - Bucharest, Romania.
10 - New Delhi, India.
Beautiful... I can't wait to travel to some of these places and share on steemit

Interesting that these cities made it. My main point is safety and good facilities if there is an emergency. Did the source analysed all these factors like health, safety, emergency needs if required , etc. Good list indeed, thanks for sharing, upvoted.

I agree safety is important. Though I am generally not scared, my friend went to Lagos last month and he said he needed armed escort even during the day. Doesn't sound cheap necessarily. Has the OP been to any of these destination? What is the source of this list?

Good point, however it depends on the person life style . I went on holiday to Lagos last year and it was very peaceful and I enjoyed myself without the need for any armed escort...of course you can take armed escort if you want, just as you can go with armed escort in most cities in the United States due to drugs dealers and gangstars

I am from Pakistan and i am with you on that Pakistan is a very cheap place to visit if your budget is very tight, but trust me you don't want to visit Karachi, if someone is interested in visiting in Pakistan, then go to northern areas of Pakistan, very beautiful places with great food and hospitality at its best, great people of northern areas and many foreigners visit these places in northern areas like K2 and Chitral @joseph

Looks like an exotic list of travel destinations worth exploring especially since they are supposedly economical. But I have been to New Delhi and it really depends on when you stay and dine as certain places can actually be really costly, the pricing for everything is really varied and dependent on your demands. Good list :)

I believe if you live in the US or Canada it would be cheaper to travel to a Latin American city, just the air fare to India would upset any savings made by it being cheaper there.

Lagos is already on my bucketlist :).
India must be an awesome adventure.
