Asia’s cities are sometimes maligned as concrete jungles bedevilled by chaotic or crawling traffic, made worse by tens of thousands of motorcycles.
India’s cities have long had a bad reputation for smog and pollution, while Jakarta, Indonesia’s vast capital, is notorious for two- and three-hour journeys that would take no more than 10 or 15 minutes in free-flowing traffic.
But for all that, some of Asia’s cities have worthwhile hikes and treks.
Staff at travel booking provider Agoda have listed five of their favourites, which give an “unmatched perspective on some of Asia’s most dynamic cities” and offer “the perfect blend of city life and nature”.
1. Kuala Lumpur
The least physically demanding – despite the sometimes baking heat or monsoon-season humidity and downpours – is the Bukit Nanas Forest Reserve in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s biggest city and home to the Petronas Twin Towers, the world’s tallest buildings for a time in the 1990s.
