TRAVEL WATCH: NOVEMBER 22, 1999 VOL. 154 NO. 20
ASIA SOURCE (www.asiasource.org) Society News: This site is one of the Web's most sophisticated fonts of information on Asia. Produced by the New York-based Asia Society, it covers everything from pop culture to politics, book reviews to breaking news. There's a great archive of articles penned by Asian academics and Asia watchers abroad. The site also serves as a useful portal to a variety of experts, statistics and media resources from across the region. SKI JAPAN GUIDE (www.skijapanguide.com) Slope Side: While snow is still relatively thin on the ground, it's not too early to begin planning a ski trip to Japan. This site is a great starting point for skiers and snowboarders researching a holiday in Japan. Navigation is relatively simple: just click on a menu of links to resort descriptions and recommendations, or go to a bulletin board where webmaster Andrew Lea offers the inside scoop on skiing Japan. The only weakness in an otherwise useful resource is its bookings section, which lists only one resort. ASIANOW Travel Home Quick Scroll: More stories from TIME Travel Watch | ||||||||||||||||||||||
