More Hubs

Here are my hubs from the beginning of September:

I start in China with Shantou, a special economic zone near Hong Kong. Shanghai's hippest district is The French Concession District. Over in Taiwan, Taipei's suburbs offer just as much to do as the city center. Finally, I give props to the best unknown destinations in China.

I haven't written any hubs about Tokyo, which is probably an oversight on my part, considering that Tokyo is Asia's biggest city. I start in glitzy Ginza, before heading downtown. I end my first batch of many Tokyo related hubs with an overview of Ueno, Tokyo's Old Quarter.

Bangkok is one of my favorite cities, so I've got 3 recommendations for off-beat activities.

Then, I dispense with some travel advice about how to stay connected abroad.

I end with a regional synopsis of Southeast Asia: The best beaches and the best unknown destinations.
