The Far East The Far East covers a multitude of cultures that differ from our own Western ways. There are the beach resorts of Thailand, Malaysia, Goa and Sri Lanka, the bustling cities of Singapore, Hong Kong and Bangkok, the fascinating historical sites of China, and newly emerging destinations such as Vietnam and Cambodia. Wherever you choose, you will encounter natural beauty, fascinating cultures, delicious cuisine and courteous hospitality. In Thailand, experience the bustle of Bangkok, laze on an exotic beach or explore the jungle by elephant. Malaysia offers World Class resorts on the islands of Langkawi and Pangor Laut, or get back to nature with a visit to Borneo to see Orang-Utans, turtles and other wildlife.    In India, wonder at the awe-inspiring Taj Mahal, the temples, forts and palaces of The Golden Triangle, followed by a relaxing stay on a beach in laid-back Goa or a houseboat in the back waters of Kerala. Sri Lanka has wonderful beach hotels that can be combined with cultural and wildlife trips. The Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Terracotta Warriors, and a Yangtze River cruise are just some of the great sights awaiting you on a trip to China. The emerging tourist nations of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos offer further historical sites, and can be seen visited on Escorted tours or on one’s own. This is a fascinating region that is now linked with a network of airlines offering low fares between many destinations.
