位於科迪勒拉中央山脈高點的碧瑤 (Baguio)，是最適合遠離菲律賓低地酷暑的度假場所。約翰海伊軍營 (Camp John Hay) 原本是美軍的娛樂地區，現在則是一座設備完善的度假村，設有世界級的哥爾夫球場。請務必到訪城市市場，這裡幾乎應有盡有，讓你盡顯講價的技巧。

The biggest island in the Philippines, Luzon is also one of the most diverse—it’s where mountain peaks and volcanoes meet miles of coastline, and indigenous culture melds with Spanish colonial history. You can relax at the beach in Pagudpud, hike with locals up the Batad Rice Terraces, ride in a horse-drawn carriage in Vigan, and snack on street food and dance the night away in Manila. You’ll need a few days and a bus pass, but you’ll be glad you stayed.

From the cosmopolitan metropolis of Cebu City and the white-sand beaches of Mactan to the electric-blue waters of Kawasan Falls and the whale sharks of Oslob, it’s easy to see why Cebu Island is one of the Philippines’ top destinations.

You could spend your whole Chiang Mai holiday exploring the famous Night Bazaar. Once you’ve exhausted the art of the cheerful haggle, however, there’s plenty more to explore. The National Museum and Botanic Garden are great places to soak up some local culture and to breathe in the delicate fragrance of Thai orchids. In the city’s centre, the remains of ancient walls embrace over 30 temples. Limber travellers can climb 300 stairs to Wat Phrathat Doi Suthep, an ornate Buddhist temple in the hills.

布吉島猶如七色彩虹般璀璨耀眼，你可以盡情欣賞藍色的潟湖、粉色的日落，以及身著橙色袈裟的僧侶。三輪電單車、的士、巴士和長尾船，絡繹不絕地將遊客載往這些令人驚嘆的奇景。布吉島南方海岸有著最受歡迎的熱門海灘。相較之下，北方海岸則顯得寧靜得多。PP 島、攀牙灣和巴東海灘皆是熱門景點。潛水、浮潛、風帆和帆船等豐富的戶外活動任君選擇。此外還有陸地、翠鬱的山丘、高山和懸崖靜待你深入探險。

Bali is a living postcard, an Indonesian paradise that feels like a fantasy. Soak up the sun on a stretch of fine white sand, or commune with the tropical creatures as you dive along coral ridges or the colorful wreck of a WWII war ship. On shore, the lush jungle shelters stone temples and mischievous monkeys. The “artistic capital” of Ubud is the perfect place to see a cultural dance performance, take a batik or silver-smithing workshop, or invigorate your mind and body in a yoga class.

雖然孟買可能會讓人覺得一片混亂和擠擁，但這裡還是可以找到寧靜之地。你可以買一杯印度香米，一邊吃一邊沿著 Chowpatty Beach 漫步，然後再走一小段距離到甘地故居 Mani Bhavan。印度國父甘地過去���經在此生活、觀星，而且也是在這裡被逮捕。這裡的市集生氣蓬勃，可以買到價格便宜的香料和紀念品。來到達拉維 (Dharavi)，不妨參加旅行團四處觀光，看看著名的「貧民窟的百萬富翁」電影場景中孟買的平民生活。

Want to make your co-workers insanely jealous? Just casually drop "I’m holiday making in the Maldives this year" into conversation, preferably in the dead of winter. Or better yet, go there without mentioning it to anyone—then send them a "Wish you were here!" postcard.
