Where are the best places to visit in Asia?
I'm  planning a 3-4 month backpacking tour through Asia. I want to see  places that are not as 'touristy'. I have never been to Asia before, so I  don't know where to start... Any recommendations as to where to go and  what to see?

China  for sure, there´re so much to see and explore, you could come across  first class cities like Hong Kong, Macau, Shanghai and Beijing then  there´re many less developed places that give a completely different  impression.  Hong Kong would be a great place to begin your tour, check  www.discoverHongKong.com and enjoy!

Visit laos if u r  backpacking its not touristy except Vang Vieng and thats just  backpackers getting of their t*ts. The people are amazing and its a good  place to chill after Thailand, u can then head down into Vietnam and  Cambodia where u can meet some unfriendly people( my view) but all in  all just head off anywhere each few days and just stop when u c a place  that interests u.Av fun.
