Or, set your sights on\u00a0Kalimantan<\/a>,\u00a0the Indonesian\u00a0side of Borneo.\u00a0<\/b>Famous for their native headhunters of the past, Kalimantan today is a breathtaking destination that\u2019s home to world renowned heritage sites, islands, and national parks where you can spend days on end just exploring the scenic surroundings.

Don\u2019t we love the gregarious Pig? Many of the Pig\u2019s ancestors are linked to Guangzhou, Southern China<\/a><\/strong>, where the most obvious influences on modern living are the methods of cooking and seasoning.<\/p>\n

Dim sum is a hot favourite in this city, but that\u2019s certainly not all that\u2019s on offer at this coastal area where a hive of activities keeps the local economy bustling. Guangzhou is also a shopping haven!<\/p>\n
