Six Breathtaking Scenic Drives in Asia
Although Asia is mostly made up of various sizes of island nations and several dense world capitals, there is a time and place to hire a car and push the pedal to the floor. Here are some of Asia's greatest drives perfect for those wanting the sense of thrill and freedom. Enjoy the breathtaking scenic drive as you feel the breeze of wind against your sun-tanned face. And don't forget to check up on our unusual list of road trip songs for your perusal as you enjoy your Asia travel.
Great Ocean Road – Australia
Just a stone's throw from Melbourne is the Great Ocean Road, 151 miles of road wrapping around the southern coast of Australia. It is one of my favourite places in the world to catch a sunset, especially if you happen to be in the area near the 12 Apostles, a set of limestone stacks that are stunning. Don't miss the helicopter tour of the coast if the weather isn't inclement, as well as the discount surfer shops in Torquay.There are also forest walks near Lorne which boats gorgeous waterfalls, and the road runs near one of Australia's last remaining rainforests, the Great Otway National Park.
The Hai Van Pass – Vietnam
The Hai Van Pass, on route 1A between Hue and Hoian, was claimed to be a "deserted ribbon of perfection…one of the best coastal roads in the world." Hai Van means ocean clouds, and indeed the mountainous valley is often covered with mist. The route has an alternate path, the Hai Van Tunnel, because for many drivers this is one difficult drive so keep this in mind should you want to attempt it yourself! But with the green hillsides, the shimmering ocean, and mountain peaks all within eyesight, this is a very special place indeed.
Osado Skyline Drive – Sado Island, Japan
While Sado Island has been refuge to many political rebels over the years, tourists come to Sado for a bit of peace and quiet. With only 70,000 local residents, there is plenty of room to stretch out and relax while enjoying the lush green Osado Mountains, sea cliffs, and tiny little fishing ports. Hiking is quite popular on the island, but don't miss the 155 miles of coastline roads to explore. The best views can be had from the Osado Skyline Drive, which cuts through the island via the Osado Mountains and Mount Kinpoku, the highest point on the island. Be sure to stop at the scenic point at Hakuundai; don't forget, the road is closed in winter
The Phuket Northeast Loop – Thailand
Despite Phuket's busy atmosphere, there are a few drives that you can take to get away and just watch the countryside roll by. One is the Mission Mills Drive but another popular one is dubbed the Phuket Northeast Loop. It starts at the Heroines Monument and traverses a circle along the east coast of the island. There's excellent views of Phang-nga Bay and little fishing villages along the way all waiting for you stop for some fresh seafood! Don't miss the statue of Ganesha (Ganesh), the elephant-headed Hindu god.
Halsema Highway – Philippines
If you want to reach the highest point in the Philippines' highway system, then just head for the Halsema Highway,which connects Baguio and Sagada. It is named after an engineer who managed to get the roadway built through the mountains. Besides the great views and endless farms and vegetable patches you'll see, there's something far more interesting to catch sight of. It is a funny moment, one of those "only in Asia" sights when you see one for the first time. You see, many of the villages along this route have erected monuments to their main exports: vegetables.That's right – be sure to stop for a photo opportunity at the potato statue, the carrot statue, etc. Only by in Asia …
Twizel to Mount Cook – New Zealand
You'll never see water so turquoise as the surreal waters of Lake Pukaki in the center of New Zealand's South Island. The 39 mile drive from Twizel runs along the seemingly endless Lake Pukaki, terminating in Mount Cook Village,in the shadow of the snowy caps of Mount Cook, the tallest mountain in the country. From the village you have the option of many hikes or excursions out onto Lake Pukaki. There are many wonderful drives in this region (a fact you will confirm just getting to Twizel) but this particular section is a real charmer.

Why are some societies deliberately stupid?
Australia has the highest skin cancer rates in the world, yet ask an Australian chemist for SPF 60+ sunscreen (which is freely available in Asia) and they've never heard of it. Yet Australians wonder why they have high cancer rates.
In America, even what should be a healthy alternative like wholemeal bread is packed with sugar in its Mexican food doesn't resemble Mexico's because of the added cheese & dislike of vegetables.
You are wrong about Mexican foods and America. Now, if you are talking about "taco bell", you might be, as it is not authentic. But I am America, my x of 25 years is from Guatemala, my son married a Mexican from Mexico ,and I lived all over the South West.
If you lived in America you would realize there are more places that serve authentic Mexican CUISINE, than not. California, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico is full of healthy versions of Mexican foods, but it is NOT Mexican food in America, it is in fact Mexican foods in general.
Also, as I have lived in Mexico and Central America, their food by nature is a fat food. Fried and rich in fats and cheese, certainly not just veggies. (Although salsa is veggies hahaha) They eat lots of rice, beans and eggs with tortillas, and of course, like any ethnic food there are indeed many vegetable dishes and salads.
Besides my friend, whats your point on choosing Mexican food, instead of focusing on fast foods loaded with fats and sugars? That's America's real problem, certainly not Mexican food.
Soooooo speak about what you know for sure. And I know for sure about Mexican foods.
