asia
Largest continent by both land (approx. 30% of Earth’s land mass) and population (approx. 60% of Earth’s population), Asia is an incredibly popular travel destination for a variety of travellers.
From towering skyscrapers to peaceful countryside and breathtaking natural views, Asia’s got a ton of travel experiences to offer, regardless of where you go! If you’re planning a trip, there are many things to consider, such as the variety in climate or culture. I hope the knowledge I gathered during my travels, which I share below, will help you with your own adventures.

When is the Best time to visit asia
Due to the diverse climate within the regions, which varies not only country by country, but also locally, the best time to visit Asia depends on the purpose and destination of your travels. Whether you’re looking to explore natural wonders, visit the vibrant cities or relax at the beach, picking the right time to go is crucial to increase your chance of ideal weather for your activity.
The best time generally falls during Spring (March to May) and Fall (September to November).
These months offer the highest chances to avoid both the extreme heat and rainfall, as well as the cold weather snaps. The three most visited regions include:
Southeast Asia
The ideal time to visit Southeast Asia countries, such as Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam, is during the dry season between November and May. This should help you avoid the monsoon season, which generally lasts from June to October.
east Asia
East Asia countries, which include Japan, South Korea and China, are usually best experienced during spring (March to May) and fall (September to November). Travelling during those months should help you avoid the monsoon season, but also the hot and humid summers.
south Asia
If you’re going to visit India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, or other South Asia countries, consider going during the winter/spring months (October to March) to, again, avoid the monsoon season and extreme temperatures during summer months.
Wherever you choose to travel, just keep an eye on public holidays. Those times can get super busy, and some attractions might be shut down. Plus, holidays tend to draw in a ton of tourists, so you might find everything booked up weeks ahead!
Where to visit in asia

It’s a place where you can experience a unique blend of modern life and ancient traditions. Visit the vibrant, futuristic cities like Tokyo, explore tranquil temples and gardens, participate in a traditional Japanese tea ceremony or witness the magical cherry blossoms in spring. No matter where you wander or what adventures you choose, there’s an abundance of joy and experiences waiting for everyone!
south korea
With the recent increase in popularity of Korean skincare products, as well as K-culture (music and TV shows), travellers choose to visit South Korea even more so than before. Immerse yourself in it with K-pop songs or K-dramas. Try out the amazing cuisine – Korean BBQ, kimchi, and street food are delicious delicacies to check out first. Experience the vibrant capital, Seoul, to see the mix of modern and historical architecture, shopping culture, and more.

With its stunning, white sand beaches and turquoise waters, the Philippines is a beckoning destination. From island hopping, snorkelling with the whale sharks, hiking up active volcanoes, to exploring the natural wonder of the Chocolate Hills, the country offers a great, laid-back and relaxing experience.
