Uncharted Myanmar |
Myanmar and Laos are the countries of Southeast Asia that can be called unexplored for tourists from Europe. In these countries, the concept of "mass tourism" is absent, and therefore these countries are attractive for those who do not want to meet their compatriots at every corner, but want to completely immerse themselves in the unique spirit of the old times and the way of life of an Asian country. You can go to Myanmar (Burma) on your own, so you can get to know the country, its people and customs better. YangonUpon arrival in Yangon, the former capital of Myanmar, you will need to choose a hotel. For $ 8-25 per day, you can recommend Zar Chi Win Guest House, Pyin Oo Lwin Guest House, White House Hotel, Sunflower Hotel, Chan Myae guest house, Maha Bandoola Garden Street (Barr St). More expensive hotels - $ 20-30 - Lai Lai Hotel and Panorama Hotel. After visiting Yangon, you can go to Bagan. Bagan is a wonder of the world. Rent a bike there and cycle through the temples. Then you can admire the sunset on the pagoda, fly over the city in a hot air balloon. There are a lot of temples in the city, to get around them all you will need about a week, but be sure to visit Nathlaung Kyaung, Ngakywenadaung Paya, Shwegugyi, Pitaka Taik, Bupaya (9th century), Mimalaung Kyaung, Thatbyinnyu Pahto and Shwesandaw Paya. Near the latter, the most beautiful sunset, but a lot of people gather. If time permits, you can visit the most sacred place in Burma - Mount Popa, this place is dedicated to local spirits, the walk will take you half a day. A small temple is located at the top of an extinct volcano. InleAnother very interesting place is Inle Lake. It is surrounded on three sides by mountains, and on the lake itself there is a city on stilts. You will need to rent a boat, it will cost 10-15 dollars and take a walk around the city.
