Asia Capitals Quiz: Printable Worksheets
A two-part printable capitals quiz for Asia. Sheet 1 gives the country and asks for the capital; sheet 2 flips it, giving shuffled capital cities and asking for the country. The answer key covers both.
There are 46 countries on the sheets. Russia and Turkey appear on both the Europe and Asia sheets because they lie in both continents. Where a country has more than one capital, the sheets use the best-known one and the answer key notes the detail, for example Sri Lanka: Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte (Colombo is the largest city).

How to use these quiz sheets
- Learn in chunks. Cover half the list and quiz yourself on the other half before attempting the full sheet.
- Quick test. Give sheet 1 as a five-minute starter, then sheet 2 a few days later to see what stuck.
- Add a map. Use the numbered Asia map so pupils place each capital's country first.
- Check as you go. The key lists the whole table, and you can see all of them on the capital cities list too.
Capitals with a catch
