Singles'
Day originated in China and has grown into a global phenomenon where
individuals celebrate their single status. It's a day marked by self-gifting
and travel, making it an ideal time for solo adventurers to explore new
horizons. Agoda's accommodation booking insights show a ranking of five cities
that offer diverse attractions and lively cultures, making them perfect for
independent-minded adventurers.
Andrew
Smith, Senior Vice President, Supply at Agoda shared, "A solo trip is
the ultimate gift you can give yourself. Exploring the world, stepping out of
your comfort zone, making new friends and memories... there's nothing else
quite like it. Wherever your next solo adventure takes you, Agoda has great
deals on accommodations, flights, and activities. And keep an eye out for
special Single's Day deals on Agoda.com/deals and in the Agoda app."
