The Far East is an intoxicating concoction of contradictions, guaranteed to awaken your senses. The East embraces the West and ancient temples stand next to European-style skyscrapers, Chinese gardens lie just round the corner from glittering shopping centres which boast the latest fashions and Japanese teahouses are punctuated by 21st century outlets of the latest technological advances. Marvel at the non-stop bazaars of Hong Kong, at the sophistication and trend-setting influences of Shanghai or at the screaming traffic and white sand beaches of Thailand. Make sure you savour every single sight, sound, taste and smell of this delicious continent.
