Britons heading to Asia the year may find that some bucket list activities are no longer doable.
The famous Burmese temples in Myanmar are just one of the latest attractions to issue a tourist ban.

It comes in light of other famous attractions in Venice and Spain issuing warnings to the overpopulation of tourist.
Bagan, the ancient city in Myanmar, is hoping to become a UNESCO World Heritage site by 2019.
The volume of tourists climbing the temple has resulted in damage, which could affect it in the near future as try and keep it to a minimum.
Thein Lwin, Deputy Director General of the Ministry’s Department of Archaeology stated: “They are very old monuments, and some could collapse at any time.
“Banning climbing is a necessary precaution to protect our cultural heritage.”
It also tried to put the ban into place in February last year.
However, it was quickly met with complaints and concerns it could affect the countries tourism.
Despite this, some temples have already banned travellers from climbing them.
It comes in wake of an earthquake in August 2016, where many of the pagodas remain unsafe after the damage.
