Planning a trip to Asia soon? Make sure you don't miss the best destinations. Here are 3 top destinations in Asia you absolutely must visit.




Are you planning your first post-Corona vacation? With lockdowns being lifted across the world, it's nearly time to stop dreaming and start planning about where you might want to travel to.

With countries like Vietnam now COVID free and back to normal and Japan out of a state of emergency and others soon to be on their way, there's no better place to visit soon than Asia.

Here's everything you need to know about the top destinations in Asia to travel to.

1. Ha Long Bay, Vietnam

Ha Long Bay is Vietnam's most stunning attraction. Beautiful limestone cliff faces that go on for miles. A UNESCO world heritage site, Ha Long means descending dragon and it refers to the myth that the Vietnamese Gods sent down dragons to protect the people.

They shot out giant green jewels into the earth which became the cliff faces and gorges you see today.

One of the most popular things to do is to do a boat ride around the bay. It's so big you can do an overnight cruise and watch the sunset and sunrise the following morning.

Boat cruises around Ha Long Bay are currently discounted due to the Corona Virus situation. They will no doubt remain this way when borders reopen.

2. Noboribetsu Date Jidaimura, Japan

If Japan is more your kind-of-place then be sure to check out Noboribetsu Date Jidaimura in the North of Japan. This is a different kind of theme park that transports you back five hundred years to the Edo period. It's one of the best attractions in Asia.

Watch people wearing kimonos and don other traditional clothing. Walkthrough ancient Japenese buildings and imagine what life was like in Japan before the advent of the modern world.

3. Hoi An, Vietnam

Hoi An, Vietnam is one of the most beautiful and quaint towns in Vietnam. Charming, the town has remained almost unchanged since the 17th century when it was a Japenese trading port. There is so much to do here in one of the best Asia attractions.

Many of the original buildings have been preserved and the buildings painted in traditional yellow. You can do a cruise down the Thu Bon river by night and the women who run the boats will give you a free lantern to place on the river and make a wish.

There are also rice fields - perfect for a bike ride through the country - and to see the rice farmers at work. If you get lucky you might even see a water buffalo.

Finally, Hoi An also has a beautiful beach that stretches for miles into the distance. It's the perfect place to chill after a long journey or a night spent in the hustle and bustle of the old town.
