Where to go to sunbathe?
The most traditional Far Eastern beach resorts are concentrated in countries that have long become popular and beloved by Russian tourists. People come here almost as easily as to their own dacha, not paying attention to either the long flight or the exotic that has become familiar:
- Number one on the list of beach destinations in the Far East is the land of smiles Thailand. A variety of resorts and hotels for every taste and budget, reasonable prices for entertainment and a warm season all year round are good reasons to prefer Thai beaches to all others.
- Cambodia and Vietnam are only gaining momentum in tourism and are learning from their more experienced neighbor. The younger sisters are not busy with sights and hospitality, and they will succeed in everything else thanks to diligence and hard work.
- Diving in the Philippines is hard to forget and compare with at least something else from the available beach activities, and therefore fans of diving in the local clear waters cannot be stopped either by the prices of air tickets or the time spent on the road.
- Although Singapore and Hong Kong are not literally beach resorts in the Far East, it is worth at least once in a lifetime to experience the symbiosis of high technology with local exoticism, lying on the seashore under skyscrapers.
- China's Hainan will give a hundred points ahead in terms of service and guest care to many of the world's resorts. A beach holiday on the island is especially popular among residents of the eastern regions of Russia, because they don't care to fly to China like a Muscovite take a ride to Yaroslavl for the weekend.
