The best solo travel destinations in Asia
1 min read
Solo travellers might often be described as “brave.” However you see it, eating alone, going to movies alone, or even going shopping alone does take a little courage. Doing this in a different country, where you might be unfamiliar with the language, culture, and unspoken rules, increases the difficulty level to a hundred.
But the best thing about solo travel is the freedom—you can do whatever you want, whenever you want, with whomever you want. Sometimes, you meet like-minded others on guided tours, day trips, or bar hops, too, so you’re never truly alone.
So, in light of taking courage, let this be your year for solo travelling. Intrepid solo travel traveller and writer Simran Panaech shares some Asian cities that should be on your list for exploration in 2025 and beyond. She’s chosen offbeat destinations with new openings, travel routes, and revived places of interest that make them ripe for a visit.
