Eastside is an independent travel publication with a mission to inspire deeper understanding and exploration of Asia’s rich cultures, context, people and places – through authentic essays, photos and videos by those who call the region home. Our stories explore less-discovered places, local trends, cultural shifts and lived perspectives, aimed at:

✦ Spotlighting Asia’s truths – both its rich traditions and its swift progress;

✦ Highlighting the heritage keepers and changemakers that make the region what it is;

✦ Helping shift tourism from over-burdened cities into less-explored but equally compelling local communities.
