Asia is the largest and most diverse continent in the world. From the neon-lit streets of Tokyo to the peaceful rice fields of Laos — every country has its own unique magic. At Contigo we picked 8 amazing countries you simply have to see!
🇯🇵 Japan Japan is a land of contrasts. Ultra-modern cities like Tokyo and Osaka stand alongside ancient temples and peaceful zen gardens. The food culture is world-famous — try fresh sushi, ramen and takoyaki at local restaurants. The best time to visit is April (cherry blossom season) or November (autumn colours).
🇲🇲 Myanmar Myanmar is one of the most authentic destinations in Asia. The impressive pagodas of Bagan, the floating village on Inle Lake and the warm hospitality of the locals make this country truly unforgettable.
🇸🇬 Singapore Singapore is small but mighty. This modern city-state combines Chinese, Malay and Indian cultures into one vibrant metropolis. Gardens by the Bay, the hawker centres full of street food and the skyline at night are absolute highlights.
🇻🇳 Vietnam Vietnam is a long, narrow country with enormous variety. From the busy streets of Hanoi to the peaceful waters of Ha Long Bay — there is always something new to discover. The food is fresh, flavourful and incredibly affordable.
🇮🇩 Indonesia With over 17,000 islands, Indonesia offers endless possibilities. Bali is world-famous for its rice terraces, temples and surf beaches. But Java, Lombok and Komodo are absolutely worth visiting too.
🇧🇹 Bhutan Bhutan is the happiest country in Asia. This small kingdom in the Himalayas measures its success not in money but in happiness. The nature is breathtaking, the culture deeply spiritual and tourism is deliberately limited — making it feel extra special.
🇰🇷 South Korea South Korea is trendy, modern and surprisingly diverse. Seoul is a world-class city full of technology, K-pop and amazing food. Outside the city you’ll find beautiful national parks, historic palaces and charming coastal villages.
🇱🇦 Laos Laos is the quiet sibling of Vietnam and Thailand. No mass tourism, just breathtaking nature, friendly people and the most relaxed atmosphere in all of Asia. Luang Prabang is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an absolute must-visit.
