What are the countries and regions of Asia?

Asia is a continent with 48 countries and is divided in 5 subregions. The countries within this part of the world can be incredibly different from each other. For example, East Asia includes countries like China, South Korea, Japan and Hong Kong. South Asia includes Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, India, Nepal but also Afghanistan, Pakistan and Bhutan! The most visited by backpackers, Southeast Asia is where Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam amaze millions of tourists every year. Western Asia is often referred to as the Middle East and the countries include Turkey, Syria, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Qatar and others.

This is how you get room in exchange for work around the world

What is important to know before traveling to Asia?

Since Asia is made up of more than 40 countries, it’s hard to specify what’s important for each one of them. However, some information about Asia for tourists is always valid: Squat toilets are common in Southeast and East Asia and you’ll need to bring your own toilet paper. Insect repellent and sunscreen will make your trip a lot better. Remember to respect the different religions and dress appropriately whenever indicated, for example take your shoes off at temples. Visit a doctor at least 5 months before traveling. Some countries require vaccinations to grant a visa.
