Batiks.ASIA Batiks and Asia

I am planning to leave the U.S around October. November to travel around Asia but I am not quite sure which country would be cheaper to fly into as a start off point. Anywhere in Asia would be fine. Any ideas, suggestions and websites I can look into. ...

I know there are different cultures through out Asia, but my opportunities to travel are few and I would like to get a feel for the Asian world view. Thanks. ...

I’m planning a trip in May. I live in LA and will have one week to spend in Asia, so I want to go somewhere that is safe, rich in culture, and has a lot to see. Anybody have any suggestions? ...
