Asia is the largest continent in the world, with the most diverse travel options. Many breathtaking beach resorts are scattered along the coasts, while exploring the crumbling edifices of ancient civilizations, trekking through verdant jungles, and enjoying winter sports are just some of the snapshots that make Asia such an enigmatic and deeply interesting place to visit.
Ancient cultures and modern cities collide in Asia, and you can explore it all at great value. The range of accommodation available is as varied as the activities you can enjoy. Stay in ancient palaces in India, beachfront villas in Thailand, ski chalets in Japan, or colonial mansions in Singapore.
