Asian Culture and Traditions

Asia is the biggest continent on the world map. The importance of this region is not because of its large areas but it’s the biggest humanity. All densely populated countries are located in this region. Asian people are generally closely bound to their traditions and customs. In Asia, you still find that generations after generations of people are bound with the traditional values. In the technically advanced and developed countries like Japan, you still find that family ties are important to them same is with Pakistan a country with rich heritages and cultural ties. Asians are happy and at home with their family units still intact. Respect for elders is a must for a person and reunion often take place on special occasion like birth, engagement, wedding & death. The traditions are most of the times really colorful and in some cases difficult to understand for people coming from highly developed countries. The impact of religions on the traditions and values of the people of Asia is prominent. Most of the people living in Asia find religion and language to be really important to them. The dress codes are specific and the festivals are also under the religious influence. People here are still bound to their roots.
