accessible countries and places

I was just thinking, with all my travel in and around Asia, I was thinking what was the most accessible place I have been to.

Hong Kong would be my answer, trains are safe and have no need for ramps to get on board.

streets are clean and safe, however there are alot of hills, but luckily,hong kong is covered in foot bridges, that connect most buildings together, avoiding and stairs or steep hills.

I think Australia would be one of the most wheelchair unfriendly places I have been.

broken roads, no crossings, trains are dangerous to board, but buses are wheelchair assessible.

and australi does have alot of disabled toilets, that are generally locked most of the time, or used by able bodied people.

so please people, comment on my blog, and let me know what you think is the best place for wheelchair people to go and holiday or live.
