Do you like Far Eastern culture? Want to see some amazing monuments? Or whatever the season, you just want an exotic beach vacation ? Let’s take a look at the most visited Asian countries, which are not only fascinating but also offer adventurous excursions.
Asia is the cradle of several cultures, so here you can meet all kinds of religions. In addition, it is the largest and most visited continent in the world.
1. Nepal, the top of the world
Many of us know him from the highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest (Himalayas). Yet the country is surrounded by beautiful, wild nature and many monuments. The most visited places in the capital are Kathmandu and Pokhara city. In the middle of Pokhara city is the second largest lake in Nepal , the Phewa Tal. In the middle of the lake there is a small island where Barahi Barahi Temple is located, or from the south you can also approach the David waterfall.
2. The island of Palawan - Philippines
It is a small mountainous island in the Philippines, one of the most beautiful and cleanest islands in the world. The local Tubataha coral reef, which has also been classified as a national park, is on the UNESCO list. On the island of Palawan, for example, you can visit the Iwahig colony and learn how the locals are being held by the locals. Beneath the island flows the longest underground river you will find in St. Paul’s Cave.
3. India, a land of contrasts
India has a history of one of the oldest civilizations, you can also visit countless temples, modern big cities or the Himalayas. Nevertheless, we are talking about a very poor country. It was once the land of the Maharajas, tigers, elephants and Gandhi. Goa is the most visited state, the richest state in India, located on the shores of the Arabian Sea. Also worth mentioning are the capitals, New Delhi and Jaipur , the “pink city” named after the pink building in the historic center.
4. Bali, the pearl of Indonesia
The first and most visited Indonesian island, Bali, won the first place. Here you will find terraced rice fields, untouched nature, dazzling sandy beaches, Hindu temples and indigenous villages, but it is also a very popular destination for divers.
5. Kingdom of Cambodia
The most visited place in Cambodia is Siem Reap, which is part of Angkor Wat. The Angkor Vat temple complex is one of the best known and most visited temples and one of the wonders of the world. Surely everyone knows those beautiful pictures of the church, so why not look it up with your own eyes?
6. Thailand - a land of amazing places
Thailand , as is well known, has won more places in the rankings. Visit the largest island in the Amanda Sea, Phuket. Mountains, rainforests, rubber trees and fantastic bays can be found here. Or, for example , the island of Ko Samui , which has the last untouched tropical nature in Southwest Asia. Check out the Royal Palace, Bangkok’s largest and oldest temple - Wat Pho or the Golden Buddha Temple - Wat Traimi. The list also includes Chiang Mai Temple and Ko Tao Turtle Island.
7. Vietnam - it's not just about rice fields
A beautiful place like Vietnam has already been ranked among the top with 3 venues. One of the UNESCO-listed. You can find the ruins of Hindu temples or even pagodas and temples that still work today. Of course, the capital, Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City , which is located here, cannot be left out of this list either.
8. Japan, a land of huge metropolises and traditional monuments
Japan has a rich history and countless Shinto and Buddhist temples, a sacred place. However, it also boasts modern cosmopolitan cities, such as the capital Tokyo , one of the most visited cosmopolitan cities. It is definitely worth visiting the former capital, Kyoto.
9. China, a country in several forms
In China, it is worth visiting the monumental capital, Beijing or Hong Kong , which is also fully listed. However, you can also get to know the poor countryside where the locals cultivate their own lands. Be sure to check out the Great Wall of China, which everyone knows.
10. Singapore, the island nation
The name of the country is of Sanskrit origin and means “city of lions”. Singapore is one of the most developed countries in the world. By no means miss out on the capital, Singapore , which is also the main port city. Chinese, Malay and Indian traditions are mixed in the country. It is also one of the cleanest cities in the world.
Amazing countries. Maybe would try them out for vacation someday
