Madang

Papua New Guinea

Good for backpackers wanting to avoid crowds and experience raw nature, not for those seeking convenience or city sights. Best time to go is May-Oct, less rain. Budget around 3000-5000 CNY. City to airport takes 1 hour, inter-area travel slow. Must-see: Madang market and nearby coral reefs. Skip the local museum, it's thin. Don't take photos on the street, can cause misunderstandings.
