Beauty culture and Natural resorces. Those are the two words that will stay with you during your trip to Asia - most of world heritage spots are listed.
Apart from being the world's largest and most populous continent, Asia is dynamic, modern and progress in many different ways. It covers 8.6% of the Earth's total surface area (or 29.4% of its land area) and, with almost 4 billion people, it contains more than 60% of the world's current human population.
Chiefly in the eastern and northern hemispheres, Asia is traditionally defined as part of the landmass of Africa-Eurasia – with the western portion of the latter occupied by Europe – lying east of the Suez Canal, east of the Ural Mountains, and south of the Caucasus Mountains and the Caspian and Black Seas. It is bounded to the east by the Pacific Ocean, to the south by the Indian Ocean, and to the north by the Arctic Ocean.
Given its size and diversity, Asia – a toponym dating back to classical antiquity – is more a cultural concept incorporating a number of regions and peoples than a homogeneous, physical entity. Every country in Asia offers different cultures, customs and traditions that could fascinate any, if not most, traveller from all across the globe.
