Asia is a continent that has long fascinated travellers, from the dawning of the Silk Road to the emergence of present-day superstates. 

 

Asia’s sights are both fabled and unknown, from the Great Wall of China to the forgotten city of Merv in Turkmenistan. Experience Buddhist imperialism in Bhutan – where western influence is nowhere to be seen – or the dizzying lights of famous Hong Kong cascading over towering skyscrapers. The bustling Old Quarter of Hanoi, Vietnam is a sight to behold, in contrast to the wilds of Borneo, which remains largely unexplored. While in Thailand, there’s a street food scene that is arguably unparalleled anywhere else in the world.
