CAMBODIA
Cambodia offers travelers a host of experiences. From the legacy of ancient architecture to a growing urban capital and beautiful countrysides, Cambodia changes. Even the shortest visit offers a look into a vibrant ancient culture and a chance to meet with a very kind and resilient people. What brings so many to this Buddhist land of smiles is Angkor Wat, the ancient capital and one of the man-made Wonders of The World. It is also a pilgrimage point for temple aficionados and a place of spiritual significance to many.
SINGAPORE
Singapore thrives from a history that has absorbed a multitude of foreign elements over almost two centuries, melding them into a unique modern national identity. With all its shopping malls, fast-food outlets, imported fashion, and steel sky scrapers, Singapore could look like any other contemporary city you’ve ever visited. While the out layers are startlingly Western, just underneath lies a curious area where East blends with West in all respects.
MALAYSIA
Malaysia’s ethnic diversity is part of its attraction with Malay, Chinese, Indian and European cultures swirling together on the streets, both in the architecture and food. Compared to the Thailand to the north and cosmopolitan Singapore to the south, Malaysia is a relative secret to many from the West. Most travelers to Southeast Asia skip over it, opting for more heavily traversed routes. But you should not miss it. In Malaysia, you’ll always be thrilled to witness life without the distracting glare of the tourism industry. You will leave impressed by how accessible the country is to outsiders while remaining true to its heritage.
THAILAND
Ancient palaces and stunning temples, buzz with street life and traditional markets, beaches and bargains, Thailand has much to offer the millions who visit every year and is considered one of the world’s top tourist hotspots. Luxury resorts are popping up in virtually every town and island. Once remote and unspoiled beaches and towns are now bustling tour destinations. But that is not to say Thailand has lost its charm far from it. The authentic Thai way of life with its vibrant Buddhist culture is just outside the comfortable bubble of luxury resorts. All you have to do is wander the streets and soak it in.
