Description: How do you fit a comprehensive primer on traveling to Asia into a 45-minute discussion? You don't. We know. We tried. So consider this part 1. In which, in less time than it takes to get through a TSA line, we take you to Japan to see why Tokyo and Kyoto took the number one and two spots in our 2016 Readers' Choice Awards; to Thailand, where you'll get quality beach time plus the serenity of Chiang Mai's wooded foothills; on an Indonesian island hop (with an impassioned defense of Bali's resilient magic); and on a single-trip sprint through Hong Kong, Macau, Bangkok and more—with enough time left over to eat your way through Singapore's hawker centers. We drop a few surprises on the way—for instance, that Japan is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and that you can visit the Great Wall on a six-hour Beijing layover. And that Singapore is home to the cheapest Michelin-star dish on earth. Not covered? The Indian subcontinent, the Middle East, Vietnam, Central Asia, or roughly 80 percent of the continent. So, yeah: we'll be back for part 2.
