迷人的越南首都歷史悠久，擁有保存良好的舊城區、紀念碑和殖民時期建築，而現代化的建物亦林立其間。河內在過去曾經擁有數個名稱，包括升龍。這裡的歷史遺跡保存良好，諸如胡志明陵墓和華羅監獄。湖泊、公園、幽靜的林蔭大道，以及超過 600 座的廟宇和佛塔皆讓這座城市魅力倍增，只要乘搭的士即可輕鬆遊覽。

Vietnam's bustling largest city sets the cultural and economic pace for the country. The former Saigon boasts charming French colonial architecture and wide boulevards, usually thronged and choked with traffic. Taxis are an option for seeing the sprawling city. The War Remnants Museum shows the Vietnam War through Vietnamese eyes. Don't miss the impressive Jade Emperor Pagoda. Go to the frenetic Ben Thanh Market for food, flowers or frogs. Tour through the Mekong Delta, past rice paddies and houseboats.

You could spend your whole Chiang Mai holiday exploring the famous Night Bazaar. Once you’ve exhausted the art of the cheerful haggle, however, there’s plenty more to explore. The National Museum and Botanic Garden are great places to soak up some local culture and to breathe in the delicate fragrance of Thai orchids. In the city’s centre, the remains of ancient walls embrace over 30 temples. Limber travellers can climb 300 stairs to Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, an ornate Buddhist temple in the hills.

金黃色的宮殿、水上市場、雄偉的圓形陶瓷屋頂…這不就是夢幻仙境了嗎？ 不，這是泰國的首都曼谷，共分成 50 區。你可以前水門或暹羅廣場瘋狂購物，然後再去 Dusit 的歐式花園好好放鬆一下。Thon Buri 最知名的就是鄭王廟 (Wat Arun)，如果想到臥佛寺 (Wat Pho) 參觀大臥佛，就要去 Phra Nakhon。你亦可以在參觀大皇宮 (Grand Palace) 之前，先去路邊攤買一盤芒果糯米，邊吃邊欣賞建築之美。

A visit to Pattaya is a wonderful way to explore the beaches along the Gulf of Thailand. Relaxed and family-friendly Jomtien Beach is a hot spot for watersports and seaside massages. The giant Buddha of Wat Khao Phra Bat keeps watch over the city, and the wooden Wang Boran Sanctuary of Truth pays homage to Buddhist and Hindu art and architecture. At night, tons of bars and strip clubs attract an adults-only crowd.

Famed throughout Asia for its heady mix of eastern cultures, Penang Island is Malaysia’s prime melting pot. Roadside vendors serve some of the world’s best street food; its national parks offer white-sand beaches and wildlife; and UNESCO-listed George Town is full of colorful heritage houses.

The cultural hub of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur is visually defined by the iconic Petronas Twin Towers, which, at 88 stories high, are the tallest twin buildings in the world and a vision of modern architecture. On the flip side, the Sri Mahamariamman is the oldest Hindu temple in Malaysia, its façade a colorful totem pole of iconography. Shopping at the Central Market is a joyful experience that involves haggling, handicrafts, and happiness.

Bali is a living postcard, an Indonesian paradise that feels like a fantasy. Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral ridges or the colorful wreck of a WWII war ship. On shore, the lush jungle shelters stone temples and mischievous monkeys. The “artistic capital” of Ubud is the perfect place to see a cultural dance performance, take a batik or silver-smithing workshop, or invigorate your mind and body in a yoga class.

雖然孟買可能會讓人覺得一片混亂和擠擁，但這裡還是可以找到寧靜之地。你可以買一杯印度香米，一邊吃一邊沿著 Chowpatty Beach 漫步，然後再走一小段距離到甘地故居 Mani Bhavan。印度國父甘地過去曾經在此生活、觀星，而且也是在這裡被逮捕。這裡的市集生氣蓬勃，可以買到價格便宜的香料和紀念品。來到達拉維 (Dharavi)，不妨參加旅行團四處觀光，看看著名的「貧民窟的百萬富翁」電影場景中孟買的平民生活。

Dubai is a destination that mixes modern culture with history, adventure with world-class shopping and entertainment. Catch a show at the Dubai Opera, see downtown from atop the Burj Khalifa and spend an afternoon along Dubai Creek exploring the gold, textile and spice souks. If you’re looking for thrills, you can float above the desert dunes in a hot air balloon, climb aboard a high-speed ride at IMG Worlds of Adventure or skydive over the Palm Jumeirah.
