It's 4 a.m., you're lying in bed wide awake in a strange city. Turns out that 12-hour movie marathon on your long-haul flight to Asia didn't ward off the jet lag as well as planned.

Instead, travelers need to figure out when to seek and avoid light based on their own trip and body clocks.

Tourists have been starting to return, and they're finding a lot to enjoy ... and a few things that could be improved.

As always, check your government's advice before traveling to potentially unstable areas.
