Renew your new year’s resolutions in China


Start your trip in China, where the population will be celebrating the traditional Chinese New Year on February, 16th. However, you’re in luck because the festivities start as early as January 27th. Have a look at www.chinahighlights.com to find out the best places to see during the celebration. Beijing is renowned for its colorful temple fairs, especially at Dongyue Temple, which is the oldest temple fair in town. If you want a modern take on the celebration, head to Hong Kong for the giant fireworks display.

Burst of energy in Vietnam


After days and nights of celebrations in China, you can head to Vietnam for a hiking trip. Why so? Because after spending days in crowded streets in China, you’ll love the peaceful solitude of Sapa, Vietnam’s highest peak. Take the time to relax from in the fresh air. All around you, rice terraces, and above the sky: This unique experience will make you appreciate your own company after the busy days in Beijing.

Recenter yourself in Thailand


Are you getting used to your own company? Great. It’s time to reconnect with your inner self and discover peace within. After all, you can’t always fly to Sapa for a little bit of me time. Why not pursue your trip in Thailand, especially at this yoga retreat www.tantrayogathailand.com where you can take a pass for a week to soothe your inner energy. You’ll even find a helpful tantra program in February for couples, to rediscover the sacred within your relationship. Traveling on your own? Join a workshop to discover this new philosophy at your pace.

And finish in colors in Bangladesh


Finally, don’t leave Asia without checking on the Spring festival, Basanta Utsav, where Nature shows its beauty with an array of bright and bold flowers. In Bangladesh, the celebrations were started by the students of the University of Cultural Society in Dhaka. Since then, the country celebrates in style and with traditional clothes and music the return of spring. If there’s one festival that can fill you with joy and excitement, it’s the performance thrown by Dhaka’s students year after year and their desire to mix colors, poems and songs during this magical day.

  1. I cannot wait to get overseas. On my list is Thailand, but you just made me add more stops. Thanks for sharing.

  2. My dream is a several-week trip around Asia. I would most like to visit China, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. Maybe someday I will succeed.

    1. That sounds awesome Anna, I’m sure you could spend several weeks just in China alone because it’s so big. I’m not sure if Taiwan is on my list but I definitely would explore it. I think I would add Mongolia also what do you think?

    1. I thoroughly enjoyed parts of Thailand for sure especially Chiang Mai, and Vietnam is definitely on my list and I would love to have that experience as well

  3. I’ve never been to Asia, but your post helped me discover another Asia than i thought. I loved it. It’s really deep and i thing everyone has a moment in life when needs to rediscover himself.

  4. Basanta utsab’s another version is celebrated here in Bengal, India, at Shantiniketan. Its beautiful and you should definitely check it out if you come to this side of the world.

    1. We’ve been to India but only the west. Need to really get back and explore all of the other parts and amazing festivals like Basanta Utsab

  5. Travel is definitely transformative and helps you find yourself. I don’t know if it even matters where you go. There is something about escaping that can help to center you.

  6. from everything on the list, being an asian myself, i suppose i should totally make basanta utsav on my bucket list as i’ve never celebrated this in bangladesh, and honestly only heard about it on this post. thank you so much for sharing, i’ll keep it in mind! 🙂

  7. Great post. I miss Asia! Feeling like we need to plan another trip there soon. Would love to do 2 months in Laos, Thailand and Cambodia.
