Botum Sakor National Park (Cambodia) Cambodia is one of those southeast Asian countries that only recently boomed in tourism, thus offering many, still-untrodden sights. One of the best places to go is this national park, which spans the southwestern corner of the country and is Cambodia’s largest. Catch sight of various ecosystems including grasslands, coastal plains, and rainforests, as well as flora and fauna that include the Asian elephant and various, rare species of birds.

Serbia While many tourists would prefer nearby Montenegro and Croatia, Serbia has been growing in popularity as a prime tourist spot in Eastern Europe in recent years. The country has a rich history coupled with great scenery and good value for the dollar. Visit its capital of Belgrade for its historic buildings and local restaurants offering the promise of world-renowned Serbian cheese, then go up the mountains and enjoy the views in the scenic Zlatibor and Kopaonik national parks.

Nagano (Japan) Visitors to Japan often prefer the new-and-old tandem of Tokyo and Kyoto for a taste of the culture, but Nagano is a great alternative. It’s the city that hosted the 1998 Winter Olympics and is now a top Japan destination for its winemaking, soba noodles, well-manicured ski slopes, and hot springs. It is also the home of the well-preserved Matsumoto Castle which was built in the 17th century.

Connected: Tourists provided with free SIM card in India

For the longest time, foreign tourists have found it especially difficult to get an Indian phone number. The lengthy, bureaucratic process involves submitting various documents as proof of identity and address, a photocopy of the passport that contains an official visa stamp, a supply of passport photos, and the contact details of a local reference.

Even after all the requirements have been provided, tourists would still have to wait a couple more days for the activation of the number.

This has provided a difficult time for foreigners. For instance, when the Indian government suddenly demonetized the high-value currency, tourists found themselves stranded with essentially no cash and limited means to communicate with people who could help them.

When Indian tourism minister Dr. Mahesh Sharma visited Sri Lanka one time, he was given a SIM card. He decided to adopt the measure in his home country to guarantee the safety of foreign tourists.
