Sri Lanka is among 11 best places to visit in Asia in 2024 according to the influential Conde Nast Traveler.

“From Sri Lanka’s shores to Uzbekistan’s Silk Road, Asia offers reasons galore to pack your bags and head east,” said CNTraveler editors in a posting on its website (https://www.cntraveler.com/story/best-places-to-go-in-asia-2024?fbclid=IwAR0FMegiCV8CEjFTgnMAZd0xdYZxWFLqoRd-0ejndz08-haPVmhIZvzx7Qw).

CNTraveler said, “It’s official, Asia is back—brighter, bolder, and more ambitious than ever. The region took longer than others to shake off pandemic-related travel restrictions and border closures, but has returned in full force, eager to remind international travelers what they’ve been missing.”

The continent’s titanic expanse of territories has always offered a diverse tapestry of to-dos—but across the region, new experiences, events, and accommodation options await. Sri Lanka is emerging phoenix-like from economic crisis and responding with a new food festival, wellness-oriented retreats, and a hiking trail that snakes through 186 miles of hill country and centuries of history. Mongolia is relaxing visa restrictions to give more people the opportunity to experience its vast, rugged landscapes, and Kochi is setting the bar high when it comes to city-wide sustainability initiatives. In the UAE, a lesser-known emirate is vying for attention, while a Japanese port city is flexing its design muscles.

Expanded green spaces, intriguing boutique resorts, luxury sleeper trains, and the ancient Silk Road: our list of the 11 best places to visit in Asia in 2024, entirely informed by contributing writers and editors spread across the region, is packed with reasons to head east.
