and pagodas in the unique city of Saigon. Cambodia is home to one of Asia’s most famous temples: with Angkor Wat, the Khmer
created a world heritage site. Relaxing hours on the beaches of Thailand will round off this Asian kaleidoscope.

in bygone days as you make your way between fanciful gardens and palaces ornately
decorated with dragons. Stepping further back into history, we follow the trail of
the Cham culture to My Son*: The ornate brick temples in the heart of the forest
