And now it's the fun part, the awards ceremony! We made some predictions as we flew out of Ireland as to what places we thought we'd enjoy the most. And as we flew into Hong Kong, we decided what the winners actually were. So, here are the top three places in each category!
Best City
3rd: Battambang
2nd: Koh Tao
1st: Bagan
Best Country
3rd: Thailand
2nd: Cambodia
1st: Myanmar
Best Food & Drink
3rd: Bangkok
2nd: Bagan
1st: Koh Tao
Best Accommodation
3rd: Golden Mango - Siem Reap
2nd: Rikitikitavi - Kampot
1st: Kumudara - Bagan
Best Cultural Experience
3rd: Singapore
2nd: Cambodia
1st: Myanmar
Best Temple
3rd: Phnom Banan - Battambang
2nd: Ta Prohm - Siem Reap
1st: Pyathada Paya - Bagan
Best Tourist Activity
3rd: Boat from Battambang to Siem Reap
2nd: Circular train - Yangon
1st: Koh Nang Yuan - Koh Tao
Nicest People
3rd: Thailand
2nd: Cambodia
1st: Myanmar
So there you have it, an overwhelming victory for Myanmar, winning 6 out of the 8 categories, and finishing 2nd in the other two! Not bad seeing as we actually only spent 4 days there. Definitely a place we'll be visiting again.
We also did a "Worst of" list, but we can't actually find it... I'm sure you can fill in the blanks yourself though, Phuket, Phuket, Phuket...
