Asia

Considering the region occupies 8.6 per cent of the earth’s area, it's virtually impossible to encapsulate all of Asia's delights in one sitting. Thailand is an excellent starting point, with its array of private beaches, five star resorts and magnificent national parks. Alternatively, there's Central Java in Indonesia, where visitors can catch a glimpse of the spectacular grandeur of Borobudur, the largest non-monastic Buddhist Temple on the planet and one of the true medieval wonders of the world. Built from volcanic rock and depicting a gargantuan mandala symbolizing the path to salvation, the monument appears as though floating in air.

There's also majestic Cambodia, where it's possible to glimpse the majestic Angkor Wat; the world's largest temple and an iconic example of ancient Khemer architecture.

Stretching a vast distance of 6,700 kilometres, the Great Wall of China is the epitome of sightseeing destinations. The Badaling Wall represents the best-preserved section of the Great Wall and boasts stunning picturesque views of the Chinese landscape, while being located just 60 km to Beijing.

No visit to India is complete without viewing the stunning Taj Mahal, a monumental white marble mausoleum located in Agra, built by Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favorite wife, Mumtaz Mahal. Completed in 1653, the structure boasts a wealth of exterior decorations hailed as among the finest to be found in Mughal architecture.

While in China, it's also advisable to visit the Forbidden City with its dominating Imperial Chinese architecture. The site took two men 14 years to build and currently attracts a whopping 10 million visitors each year.
