Best of South East Asia

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...
