Asia has incredible diversity, from the snow capped Himalayas of India, China, Nepal and Bhutan, to the jungles of Thailand, Burma and Indonesia, with ancient wonders such as Cambodia’s Angkor Wat, the Great Wall, the Taj Mahal, Laos’ Luang Prabang, and the natural majesty of places such as Vietnam’s Halong Bay, the volcanoes of Sumatra, Burma’s Inle Lake and James Bond Island in Thailand – there is much to explore.
