Southeast Asia

de Adam Bray

Southeast Asia is a firm favorite on the long-haul travel trail, thanks to its unrivaled range of amazing experiences and unforgettable sights--from the northern hills of Thailand to the dragons of Komodo, frenetic Manila to laid-back Vientiane, the sands of Ko Samui to Balinese temples and the ruins of Angkor. And traveling around the region has never been easier. The new edition of Insight Guide Southeast Asia is a comprehensive full-color guide to this fascinating region. It covers Thailand, Myanmar (Burma), Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines. This book is packed with stunning photography on every page that brings to life these countries and their people. Our Best Of Southeast Asia highlights the region's top attractions, such as the Andaman Coast, Bangkok's temples and floating markets, the Northern Highlands of the Philippines, and Luang Prabang, the former royal capital of Laos, and much more. Detailed, high-quality maps throughout will help you plan your itineraries, while the travel tips give you all the essential information for organizing a memorable trip, such as transport, accommodation, climate and festivals.
