East Asia

East Asia is the eastern part of Asia. It is sometimes described by the Eurocentric term Far East (which might also include Southeast Asia and the Russian Far East). The region was the cradle of ancient civilizations such as the Imperial China, ancient Korea, ancient Japan and the Mongol Empire, and is today home to 1.6 billion people. The region contains world metropolises such as Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai and Hong Kong, endless archipelagos at the edge of the Pacific Ocean, as well as vast plains and sky-high mountains.

        These are the countries and territories in East Asia, People's Republic of  China (excluding Tibet which is part of the Indian subcontinent of South Asia), Hong Kong, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Macao, Mongolia and Taiwan. The products of East Asia are Silk, Gold and other metals. It is mentioned that silk originated in China since 1st Millennium BC and up to today, China remains the world's largest producers of Silk.

        South Asia has a Temperate Climate because it is getting closer to the Arctic zone. When visiting East Asia, be prepared for hot temperature in the desert climate or rainy day in tropical climate. 

        Let's go to the next part of this post, the Places!

        Things to see and do in East Asia:

        Korean Folk Village

        The Korean Folk Village (KFV) was created with a view to presenting the national culture to local and international tourists by collecting in one place the folk customs in our culture that have been passed down for a long time. KFV has since its foundation in 1974 been loved as a tourist destination that provides vivid cultural experience as well as traditional culture set in beautiful nature. The role of KFV consists in renewing the value of Korean culture and preserving it so that it may shine throughout the world.

       (translated into Filipino)

Ang Silangang Asya ay silangang bahagi ng Asya. Minsan inilarawan ito ng term na Eurocentric na Far East (na maaaring kabilang din ang Timog Silangang Asya at ang Russian Far East). Ang rehiyon ay ang duyan ng mga sinaunang sibilisasyon tulad ng Imperial China, sinaunang Korea, sinaunang Japan at Imperyong Mongol, at ngayon ay tahanan ng 1.6 bilyong tao. Ang rehiyon ay naglalaman ng mga metropolises sa mundo tulad ng Tokyo, Seoul, Shanghai at Hong Kong, walang katapusang mga archipelagos sa gilid ng Karagatang Pasipiko, pati na rin ang malawak na kapatagan at mga bundok na may mataas na kalangitan.


        Ito ang mga bansa at teritoryo sa East Asia, People's Republic of China (hindi kasama ang Tibet na bahagi ng subcontinenteng India ng Timog Asya), Hong Kong, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, Macao, Mongolia at Taiwan. Ang mga produkto ng East Asia ay Silk, Ginto at iba pang mga metal. Nabanggit na ang silk ay nagmula sa Tsina mula noong ika-1 Millennium BC at hanggang ngayon, ang China ay nananatiling pinakamalaking prodyuser ng Silk sa buong mundo.

         Ang Timog Asya ay may Temperate na Klima sapagkat ito ay papalapit sa Arctic zone. Kapag bumibisita sa Silangang Asya, maging handa sa mainit na temperatura sa klima ng disyerto o maulan sa tropikal na klima.

        Pumunta tayo sa susunod na bahagi ng post na ito, ang Mga Lugar!

        Mga bagay na makikita at gagawin sa Silangang Asya:

        Japan-

        Mt. Fuji


         Ang Mt. Fuji ng Japan ay isang aktibong bulkan na halos 100 kilometro sa timog-kanluran ng Tokyo. Karaniwang tinawag na "Fuji-san," ito ang pinakamataas na rurok ng bansa, sa 3,776 metro. Isang lugar ng paglalakbay sa paglipas ng mga siglo, itinuturing na isa sa 3 mga sagradong bundok ng Japan, at ang mga pag-akyat ng mga summit ay nananatiling isang tanyag na aktibidad. Ang iconic na profile nito ay ang paksa ng maraming mga gawa ng sining, lalo na ang Edo Panahon mga kopya ni Hokusai at Hiroshige.

        Chubu Region, Honshu, Japan

        The Prime Pod

        Napapaligiran ng mga restawran, ang modernong capsule hotel na ito ay 4-minutong lakad mula sa istasyon ng tren ng Sanjō at 11 minuto ang layo mula sa Nishiki Market. Ang mga naka-streamline na mga capsule ng mga silid na may kahoy na paneling ay nagbibigay ng libreng Wi-Fi at flat-screen TV, kasama ang mga safes, ilaw para sa pagbabasa at ibinahaging banyo. May isang mahangin, minimalist na silid pahingahan na nagtatampok ng tradisyonal na lampara. Kasama sa iba pang mga amenities ang isang simpleng bar at agahan (labis na bayad).

        Korea-

        Korean Folk Village

        Ang Korean Folk Village (KFV) ay nilikha na may pananaw upang maipakita ang pambansang kultura sa lokal at internasyonal na turista sa pamamagitan ng pagkolekta sa isang lugar ang mga katutubong kaugalian sa ating kultura na naipasa nang mahabang panahon. Ang KFV mula nang ang pundasyon nito noong 1974 ay minamahal bilang isang patutunguhan ng turista na nagbibigay ng matingkad na karanasan sa kultura pati na rin ang tradisyunal na kultura na nakatakda sa magandang kalikasan. Ang papel na ginagampanan ng KFV ay binubuo sa pag-update ng halaga ng kulturang Koreano at pinapanatili ito upang maaari itong lumiwanag sa buong mundo.
