Capital cities

Capitals of Asia Quiz

This quiz has the capital cities of 45 countries in Asia. Pick the right capital from four choices, or switch to typed mode below if you want it harder. Every answer is listed under the game.

How to play: each question names a country; tap its capital or press 1 to 4. The wrong choices are mostly other big cities of the same country, so the biggest city is often a trap. After each answer you see a short note when a country has a second capital. Capitals follow the national constitutions and governments as listed on Quiz Zoomies (checked October 2026).
