Malaysia (Pre Covid 19 - Reminisce my Good Old Days - The 25 Best Cities in Asia & I) June 2021

" Asia is Earth's largest & most populous continent, located primarily in the Eastern & Northern Hemisphere. It shares the continent landmass of Eurasia with the continent of Europe & the continent landmass of Afro-Eurasia with both Europe & Africa " 

After watching a travel video highlighting The 25 Best Cities to Visit in Asia presented by touropia, it was heartening to note that I scored reasonably well in this Asian Best Cities category as over the years of travelling via free & easy visits & package tours, I realised that I had to date visited a total of 23 out of 25 of the Best Cities in Asia (a great score) ! Kuala Lumpur, the capital city of Malaysia (my home country) has also been nominated as one of the best Asian cities ! Malaysia is truly Asia ! Malaysia-boleh ! The other 2 best cities in Asia I have yet to visit are Jerusalem of Israel & Bukhara of Uzbekistan !
