Asia\u2019s ambitious civilisations ultimately gave rise to some of the world\u2019s most revolutionary ideas and important technology. Ancient wonders and sacred spaces abound across the continent, from the Great Wall of China and the temples of Angkor to lesser-known marvels in Myanmar, Nepal and Afghanistan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_863\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-863\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-863 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/forkfultrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Food_Trucks_01-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/forkfultrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Food_Trucks_01-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/forkfultrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Food_Trucks_01-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/forkfultrip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/Food_Trucks_01.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-863\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Food<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span class=\"js-intro-narrative\">Is there any greater place to eat than Asia? The continent has exported its cuisines the world over: India\u2019s red hot curries, China\u2019s juicy dumplings, Vietnam\u2019s steaming bowls of pho soup and Thailand\u2019s heaping plates of <em>p\u00e0t tai<\/em> (pad Thai) noodles are known and loved across the globe. Eating here can be both a joyous and chaotic affair: forks are forsaken in favour of fingers or chopsticks and food is enjoyed with unrivalled gusto. Whether settling down for a Michelin-starred meal in one of Singapore\u2019s finest restaurants or pulling up a plastic stool on a Bangkok street, hungry travellers will never be bored by the diversity of Asia\u2019s cuisines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This continent has contributed a cast of villains and heroes to global history.
