Yes, each country has its own customs and behaviors to respect. For example, in Japan, it's important not to point and to take off your shoes before entering certain houses or temples. In India, it is recommended not to touch children's heads, as they are considered sacred. It is also important to respect dress codes in temples and always show respect for local authorities.
Each Asian country has its own currency. For example, the yen in Japan, the baht in Thailand, the rupee in India, the won in South Korea and the dong in Vietnam. It is advisable to exchange local currency before your trip, although credit cards are accepted in most tourist areas. ATMs are common in major cities.

It's also advisable to stay well hydrated and sleep for short periods during the flight, to help you adapt to the new time zone.
