Did you know Asia is the most culturally and topographically diverse continent on the planet? Are you aware that most countries in this continent offer cheap travel opportunities? If not, it’s the right time to enlighten yourself and plan a trip here. Though many parts of this continent are worth a visit, we have mentioned which cities in Asia are the best for a family vacation.
· Sapa, Vietnam
A mountain haven
near the Chinese border, this former French hill station is perfect for a
family getaway. Here you can book a guided trek, explore the alpine scenery,
and enjoy the views of towering rice terraces. To get a taste of the Sapa
culture, you can also go for a homestay experience with a Hmong family.
· The Maldives
Gone are the
days when only honeymooners used to visit The Maldives. Now, the tropical Asian
archipelago is more of a family-friendly destination where you can relax and
rejuvenate at a lavish resort with your family. The world-famous beaches would
tempt you to be lazy, and the mirror-clear waters would lure you to stay
longer. Try a boat trip or snorkeling excursion, and if you are lucky, you may
see a sea turtle.
· Seoul, South Korea
Families seeking
a cultural family getaway should pick South Korea’s vibrant capital. The concrete
jungle is clean, safe, and has a reliable and accessible public transport
system. The main attractions include pay-per-hour play cafes and local parks or
Lotte World Theme Park. If your kids love Legos, visit the Lego-themed lounge
at Four Seasons.
· Kyoto, Japan
When seeking
child-friendly attractions that adults would also adore, you can pick Kyoto.
Start your trip at the Railway Museum and then visit the Samurai and Ninja
Museum with your kids. Those seeking peace will enjoy the abundance of green
spaces in Kyoto that are well suited for picnic and play. The Imperial Palace
Park is worth a shot. The city also has 2,000 temples and shrines that add
cultural essence to your trip.
·
Singapore
Families who
want to explore Asia for the first time cannot go wrong with Singapore. The
country has plenty of places to eat out, abundant attraction points, and a
reliable public transportation system that allows you to travel independently.
Stroll along the sands of East Coast Park with your family and take trips to
the interesting islands of Lazarus, St John’s, and Pulau Ubin. And yes, don’t
miss a trip to Universal Studios Singapore, Butterfly Park, Insect Kingdom, and MegaZip Adventure Park.
