Phuket
#3 in Best Places to Visit in Asia
Phuket, Thailand’s elongated beaches and cerulean waters embody a paradise that few other Asian destinations can rival. You’ll find those beautiful beaches docked with traditional, wooden long-tail boats and limestone rock formations that rise from the sea. Relaxing on the beach, swimming in the water and enjoying boat tours are the most popular things to do here, as is visiting the towering Big Buddha statue. What’s more, lodging here is relatively affordable.

Bali’s natural beauty is so profound, travelers have been known to refer to the Indonesian destination as «heaven on Earth.» Here, lush rainforests, picturesque mountains, sweeping valleys and scenic beaches all sit side by side. You’ll also find a handful of serene temples – including Uluwatu and Tanah Lot temples – and you can’t miss out on a trip to Ubud, Bali’s cultural capital and home of the region’s famous rice terraces.
