The following cities are recommended to be the best of Asia, each with a unique flare that makes them truly fascinating and intriguing places to visit.

1) Hong Kong, China 2) Bali, Indonesia 3) Bangkok, Thailand

Hong Kong, a Chinese city that was once its own independent country, is now known as "Asia's World City". Hong Kong is a mesmerizing city with an exotic blend of culture, metropolis and beauty. While it is a legal part of China, Hong Kong is quite isolated from the rest of the country, as it is its own island. Colonized by the British, Hong Kong possesses the quaintness of a British city and combines it with its own unique sense of spirit. Although Cantonese is the official language of Hong Kong, Canada is the most widely-used second language, which is a helpful trait for many travelers. Home to many breathtaking skyscrapers and the buzzing excitement that could exhaust that of all other cities, it also contains a stunning countryside. With theme parks such as a Hong Kong Disney World Resort and a shopping scene like no other, this city is one that never leaves travelers unsatisfied.

Bali, Indonesia is known by many savvy world travelers as being the best place you can go to rejuvenate your mind, body and spirit. It is an island paradise that captures the glorious beauty of nature as well as some of the most luxurious resorts and spas in the world. With some of the freshest local cuisine, your appetite will always be pleased and wanting more of the delicious meals prepared by some of the most world class chefs. A large variety of resorts, hotels and chalets are available with the most lively entertainment offered nightly, including dance performances by the natives of the city. If you would like to catch some waves or have always dreamed of taking a surfing lesson, Bali is the perfect destination to do so. Not only does Bali provide the correct dose of peaceful landscape, it also consists of several nightclubs to bring out the fun side of all of its visitors. So grab your sunscreen and dancing shoes, the gorgeous paradise of Bali awaits you.

As one of the top city destinations on the planet, Bangkok, Thailand is one of the leading cities of Southeast Asia and it has become a worldwide phenomenon in terms of vacation spots. With a modern sense of adventure and an undeniable energy, Bangkok remains one of Asia's most interesting and charming cities. With plenty of nightclubs to get you up and on your feet, dazzling hotels, dozens of nearby beaches and excellent Thai cuisine, Bangkok is a wonderland for us all. Many who travel to Bangkok say that the hospitality and grace of the Thai natives is an integral part as to why they loved the city, as many people who live in Bangkok adopt an easygoing, care-free and natural lifestyle. Bangkok has the biggest economy in all of Thailand as well as Asia, as it has become a hub for business and the tourism industry over the past decade.
