East photo competition #1: Staff favourites

U Bein Bridge at sunset

If you’re an avid reader of East, the Inside Asia Tours travel magazine, you’ve probably already heard about our photo competition.

In our first issue, the theme of our competition was ‘water’ – and we gave away a luxury trip to Japan for our lucky winner, Adrian Furner. But there were so many excellent entries that we couldn’t let them languish in our archives for long, so here are just a few of our favourite snaps from Burma.

To see the winner – and our top picks from Japan – click here. For our favourite snaps of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos, keep an eye on our Indochina blog!

Our current photo competition has now closed, but next up we’ve got a haiku competition to get your creative juices flowing! Watch this space – and subscribe to the magazine to be in with a chance of winning: https://www.insidejapantours.com/magazine/
