About the region


Getting used to a new place is often the best and most frightening experience of any holidays. There is no need to worry though as long as you are wary and accustom yourself to the local laws.


For example when visiting local holy places of worship, women and men should cover as much skin as possible to show respect. These countries are usually also more conservative so it is a good idea not to show too much display of affection in public. The penalties for drugs possession is also much harsher in Asian countries ranging from long jail sentences to the death penalty, even more small amounts.
