Asian Adventure Travel

Asia is the world’s largest and most populated continent on Earth covering nearly nine percent of the Earth’s total surface and 30 percent of the Earth’s total land mass. Asia contains 60 percent of the world’s current human population. Asia is also the most culturally diverse of the continents. Asia has extremely diverse climates and geographic features. Climates range from arctic and subarctic in Siberia; to desert in Mongolia and Arabia; to plains in Russia; to tropical in southern India and Southeast Asia; and to coniferous and deciduous forests farther north. Asia contains the Arabian and Gobi Deserts, two of the largest deserts in the world; the Yangtze River in China, which is third longest river in the world, and the Himalayas, the tallest mountain range in the world.

Asia is home to such well-known animals as the snow leopard; the tiger; the Asian elephant; the Indian and Javan rhinoceros; the orangutan; the gibbon; the polar bear; the brown bear; the Asian black bear, the sloth bear, the sun bear, the panda; the king cobra; and two fresh water seals, the Ladoga Seal and the Baikal Seal.
