Summer is slowly approaching its end for this year, but that is not the reason for you not to visit one of the most popular Asian countries. The good thing is that summer in Asia might be a bit longer, which means that if you choose a beach holiday there, you still have some time. On the other hand, Asia is a great continent to visit in the fall as well, which means that you can book whichever country you want now and go in the following couple of months – you will not regret it. Tourism in Asia is extremely popular at the moment and it’s for a good reason. Apart from its rich history and authentic culture, it is also home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. So, if you want to go to Asia for your late summer holidays but you have no idea where, take a look at this guide:
Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka has always been an interesting destination, and one that many adventurous people opt for, but it seems that the tourism here really reached its peak in 2019, and will definitely continue to do so. This is the reason why you should always book your accommodation there on time. Not only is it very clean and so jaw-droopingly beautiful, but it is also home to some of the friendliest people on the planet. You can enjoy some amazing beaches, but also quiet jungle retreats and examples of incredible wildlife and history. So it’s safe to assume that Sri Lanka has it all and that it caters for everyone’s taste. Make sure to check when the two very distinct rainy seasons are going to happen, and then choose the “in season” which is the best time to visit this country.
Singapore
Singapore is one of the jewels of Asia, with more and more people opting to either come here on holiday, honeymoon or move completely. It’s a country that offers so much, so it’s no unusual that it’s full with expats – it’s one of the most expat-friendly countries in the world. Now, make sure that you get the best hotel specials once here as you should really stay in Singapore with style. Everything else just won’t do. Singapore is a place that never sleeps, and if you like night life, and eating in some of the best restaurants in the world, then this is the place you want to visit. It is home to more than 40 Michelin-starred restaurants, and some of those are even street stands!
Bhutan

If you’re for something more tranquil but yet very authentic and zen, you can always go to Bhutan and see this amazing country in the most authentic way. This is a place of unspoiled beauty, and it is going to stay like that. They have restricted tourism in order to preserve as much as they can, and this is exactly why you should hurry up with any accommodation if you want to see it. The best way to experience Bhutan is by opting to stay in authentic accommodation and see how it is to live there like a local. The nature and the atmosphere you find in Bhutan you will not find anywhere else in the world.
Japan

What country comes to your mind when you say Asia? It’s probably Japan, one of the most popular countries, not only on this continent, but in the world. Japan has different traveling experiences to offer, so you can choose if you want to see rural Japan, Tokyo or perhaps the part where you will see Osaka, Kyoto and the popular geishas. Be as it may, you will have plenty of things on your hands, so make sure to plan everything to the detail. Also, finding accommodation here might be challenging, especially because the prices can be very high, so if you don’t hurry up you will end up paying a bit more than expected for a night’s stay.
Cambodia

However, if you want a holiday rich in history, then you can also opt for Cambodia, which is home to extremely friendly people and very rich history and culture. It has an amazing nightlife as well, so you will be killing two birds with one stone. You will see the tunnels of Angkor Was, which are perhaps the most awe-inspiring ruins in all of Asia.
So many places to see, yet so little time. This is why you should hurry up and book your stay at one of these places as soon as possible. It’s also best to do that now as you don’t want to wait for them to become mainstream and overcrowded with tourists. Have a great trip!
