Travel with the Budget of a Worker Bee, Swing like a VIP

Rarely are currency exchange rates as good for the American dollar as that of Asian countries. In Asia, the American dollar carries a lot of clout and with the recent devaluation of the USD; it is a good thing that these countries offer an excellent trip for so little cost to Americans.

Let's start with Japan. For every American dollar, the Yuan is worth 92.99 to an American traveler. Japan is a land of ancient feudalism, with as its human cultural symbols, geisha and samurai. It has famous cities, like the city of Hiroshima that gained dubious fame as the first city on Earth destroyed by a nuclear bomb, to Kyoto that contains the districts of Pontocho and Gion, the famous Geisha quarters.
