1 | TOKYO
Tokyo, Japan, Asia
One of the world's top food cities and also a fashion capital, Tokyo is a city more to experience than to sightsee. It's a huge world city, but anywhere you want to go is within walking distance from a train. It has a very efficient transport service, and you will never be bored if you enjoy big fast-paced cities with big crowds -
2 | BEIJING
Beijing, China, Asia
The Chinese capital has the country's most stunning imperial palaces (at the Forbidden City), and although getting around may not be easy (locals do not speak English or any other language), it's a city no one should miss (go on guided tours). It's home to one of the world's greatest man-made wonders (the Great Wall), as well as to several cultural sites, including a number of magnificent temples.
3 | SHANGHAI
Shanghai, China, Asia
They've called it the "Paris of the East," and this waterfront city has gone from seaside fishing village to one of the world's most industrialized and multicultural metropolises. It's also a major shopping destination, and that Parisien feel is reflected in old palatial buildings and tree-lined avenues. For tourists, one of the most memorable experiences is a scenic boat tour to admire the modern skyline (to photograph the landmark Oriental Pearl Tower), and dining at some of the finest international restaurants in Asia.
4 | SINGAPORE
Singapore, Asia
Some find it too sanitized and soulless, others think it should serve as a model for all world cities. Singapore is one of the world's major modern cities and is also an independent state. It's known as a great food destination and as a cosmopolitan city with a population from all over the world. It's a prosperous place with modern architecture, countless malls and great hotels, not to mention the world's greatest rooftop pool.
5 | HONG KONG
Hong Kong, China, Asia
This former British colony is a dynamic city that's as East as it is West. It offers the exotic and the familiar, the cutting-edge and the traditional. It's a big, vibrant place, something of an Asian New York, and it's not exactly cheap. It between its towering buildings are sophisticated restaurants and shops, meant for those looking to spend some big bucks, but also stalls of Chinese food and lively street markets. It's surprisingly easy to get around, with streets marked in English, good public transportation, pedestrianized streets, and organized tours.
