The BBC’s latest David Attenborough-led documentary<\/a> showcases the wildlife found on Earth’s largest continent, taking in the sweeping and dramatic vistas of Asia.<\/strong><\/p>

Asia is home to the highest mountain range, the deepest ocean<\/a>, the tallest jungles, and the biggest cave, and this diverse landscape is showcased throughout the 7 part TV show \u2013 and it’s the first time that the continent has been the focus of a landmark BBC wildlife series<\/a>. Here, we take a look at the TV show’s filming locations.<\/p>

Asia has the largest coastline of any continent and has one of the most abundant coral reefs<\/a> on Earth, so it’s no surprise that its oceans and its weird and wonderful inhabitants<\/a> feature heavily in the series \u2013 particularly in episode 1.<\/p>

Its seas are connected by one of the world’s most powerful currents, the\u00a0Indonesian Throughflow, and are home to over 60% of all marine species. From giants in the deep ocean, to tiny fish that climb trees, squid<\/a> that glow in the dark, and grey reef sharks <\/a>that hunt in their hundreds, the series shows how diverse and spectacular Asia’s waters are.<\/p>
