This was totally unintentional, but the last time I traveled was around Christmas time, and I quite liked it because the place was far less crazy about the holiday than western countries.

I don't know why, but for some reason costume parties seem to be a thing in the Central district in Hong Kong. You could walk down the street and start seeing people in costume. And the Stanley market sells costumes, and it was pretty much the majority of what they sold.

I firmly believe that Tokyo is the best place in the world to celebrate Halloween and its really only been a thing in Tokyo for less than a decade. Its grown so much and has become awesome.

An american holiday for sure. But in the last decade, and I mean really that recent and no older, there are some tourist-savvy small towns that are turning the night before their religious All Saint's Day into something to draw people in. Very rightly so, it has always been seen as something solemn and symbolic of lost loved ones souls, not as a fun thing to celebrate absorbed pagan rituals that scares people.
But, emulating americans and tourism are big desires overseas. Christians only. I wouldn't look for great fun in Asia whatsoever. Pick another holiday.

I spent a halloween in vegas, it was fucking wild. Sluts as far as the eye could see.

Itaewon, Seoul has a crazy halloween. Seomyeon, Busan is quite active too.

Tokyo is dope as well

The Hong Kong Sevens runs for three days usually around the first weekend in April. It's actually a rugby tournament but the south stand is total party
