This diamond-shaped island off the coast of Malaysia is also the smallest country in Southeast Asia. It’s one of only two cities in the world to have a significant rain forest within its boundaries. Here, you’ll find more than 840 varieties of flowering plants and 500 specials of wildlife. Boasting mouthwatering cuisine, incredible shopping, and a thriving arts scene, this island is an exhilarating blend of cultures.

Phuket, Thailand

Thailand’s largest and most visited island, Phuket, offers gorgeous beaches lined with palm trees, plus fabulous coves and bays. Water sports include sailing, diving, and snorkeling. Golf enthusiasts will love the championship courses, while nature lovers will be thrilled by the tropical forests and waterfalls. Tour historic mansions and top off the day enjoying the extensive nightlife.

Colombo, Sri Lanka

Colombo is a busy and vibrant place with a mixture of modern life and colonial ruins. As Colombo possesses a natural harbour, it was known to Indian, Greeks, Persians, Romans, Arabs, and Chinese traders over 2,000 years ago. Colombo has wildly varying architecture that spans centuries and depict many styles. Here one may find new towering skyscrapers as well as historic buildings dating far back as the 1700s.

Cochin, India

The “Queen of the Arabian Sea,” Cochin is one of the finest natural harbors in the world. Stroll Fort Kochi beach at sunset, framed by the Chinese fishing nets, visit St. Francis Church, where Vasco de Gama was buried, and take in a Kathakali dance performance that will leave you spellbound. New Mangalore, India

New Mangalore is demographically diverse and the heart of a distinct multilinguistic—cultural region with several languages. The city’s landscape is characterised by rolling hills, coconut palms, freshwater streams, and hard red-clay tiled-roof buildings. With its pristine beaches, broad roads and calm localities, it has an off the beaten path feel. It sits at the estuaries of the picturesque Netravathi and Gurupur Rivers on the Arabian Sea coast and has been a major pit stop on international trade routes since the 6th century AD.

Goa (Mormugao), India

The sandy coast of Goa is perfect for reclining by the sea. Swaying palms, white sands and sparkling waters: the three essential elements that attract 2 million visitors annually to Goa’s balmy shores are plentiful in this tiny, glorious slice of India hugging the country’s western coastline and bounded by the Arabian Sea. However, there’s far more to discover here than the exquisite pleasure of warm sand between your toes. Pep up your stay with a wander around a vanilla-scented spice plantation, stroll the bird-filled banks of the state’s gentle rivers, poke around centuries-old cathedrals, and venture out to white-water waterfalls. In Old Goa, the beautiful is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a fine example of baroque architecture.

Bombay (Mumbai), India

Mumbai is a massive metropolis of more than 20 million people, and it’s defined by its exuberance, energy and sheer madness. Unlike other destination cities in India, it’s not known for its great monuments, arts or sights. Its appeal for visitors is its friendly people, cultural diversity and vibrant markets. Parts of the hit film “Slumdog Millionaire” were filmed here, and, as you travel through the city, you can’t help but see the squalid shacks that millions call home. The British did not waste their years here but spent it building grandiose buildings that would turn the city into a little England. Among them are the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Crawford Market, and its Victorian-styled clock tower, and the Victoria Terminus.

Muscat, Oman

The capital of Oman, Muscat is located on the Gulf of Oman with a majestic backdrop of the Western Al Hajar Mountains. This beautiful city has numerous mosques including the Sultan Qaboos Grand Mosque, Ruwi Mosque and Zawawi Mosque along with two Hindu temples--a Shiva temple and a Krishna temple. Take a ride along the Corniche, a street that hugs the coastlines and plays light reflecting off the water with the white facades of the old merchants houses that line the promenade. The old covered souk, or market, on the nearby narrow streets offers everything from 24-kt. gold to frankincense to beautiful rugs. Old Portuguese forts sit side-by-side with modern homes and businesses. Dubai, U.A. Emirates

Dubai is a fascinating fusion of modern city and old world “souks,” or markets. Travel between the two by “abra,” traditional water taxis that cross Dubai Creek. The leading center for business and tourism in the Middle East, Dubai offers a distinctive blend of modern city amenities and the ancient charm of Arabia. Take a stroll and admire the stunning architecture of traditional mosques right next to ultra-modern buildings. Pick up a wonderful memento at The Souq, which is made up of various shops such as the Spice Souq, the Textile Souq and the Gold Souq.

Abu Dhabi, U.A. Emirates

The often slick and modern capital of the U.A.E. presents a fascinating mixture of tradition and progression. Tracing its rich history back to around 3000 B.C., Abu Dhabi maintains a more distinctly Arabian ambiance than glitzy Dubai. Just 50 years ago, Abu Dhabi was little more than a fishing village comprising a fort, a few coral buildings, and a smattering of barasti huts. The city now features large gardens and parks, green boulevards lining all the streets and roads, sophisticated high-rise buildings, international luxury hotel chains and opulent shopping malls.
