I am teaching in Shanghai for the year and have 40,000 skymiles to burn to go someplace awesome during the next break. Where is a good place to go for just a few nights? I am looking to leaving anytime after 4 on the 28th of April and returning on May 3rd.
I have checked out most of Japan already, Taiwan as well. Thinking maybe Korea, Guam, Malaysia????
What do you all think? Knowing that I might not be back in the area for awhile, what unique place should I go to? Also, since this isnt a revenue ticket, are there any hotspots that I could get to with miles that might be cost preventative to get to on a revenue ticket? Some exotic island to take a break on???
Thanks in advance!

Hong Kong, Macau (former Portugese colony and Asia's Las Vegas), Singapore, South Korea (except for Macau and including Taiwan - which you've already seen, these make up the four "Asian Tigers", some of Asia's wealthiest nations after Japan).
Other interesting places: Thailand (Bangkok... and Phuket for the white sanded beaches), Malaysia (KL has one of the world's tallest buildings), Beijing (Great Wall of China),
