Welcome to AG PASSPORT!

No. 3 Issue 2/2009 (April–June)

Ready for Some Adventure, Mate?

In this issue’s feature stories PASSPORT heads to the land Down Under in search of adventure and unique landscapes, explores the beauty and intrigue of the once-notorious Golden Triangle, and takes a fascinating look at Hong Kong, Macau, Cambodia, the Philippines, and India through the eyes of the European colonialists. There are more great travel ideas in our short-article section, “Navigator” – from polo in the mountains of Pakistan to the colourful streets of Beirut. And we report on the spectacular opening of Dubai’s latest luxury hotel and the photographic melee at Chiang Mai’s Flower Festival. Check out the magazine for the fabulous upcoming trips organised by PASSPORT and ASIAN Geographic.
