MYANMAR
PACKAGE, 5 DAY / 4 NIGHTS
(YANGON-MANDAIAY-BAGAN-YANGON)
Introduction: Myanmar is a political pariah, but its
people and tourists sights are incomparable. The geographical features of the country are diverse, ranging from the
hot delta of the Ayerawaddy to the snow-capped mountain of Hkaka Razi in the
far north bordering the Himalayas. Myanmar’s history is a fascinating kaleidoscope of battles and
conquests. Peopled by the ancient Pyus
who left no traces of their culture and the Mons who came after them, Myanmar
found its golden age in the reign of King Anawratha of Bagan. He subdued the Mons of Bago and unified the
country except for the border areas. The archaeological sites of Bagan are stupendous attestations to the
glory and power of the Bagan dynasty. The Inle Lake in the Shan hills is so scenic it is unbelievable. The city of Mandalay still holds vestiges of
its former royal status began by good King Mindon. And Yangon is struggling to keep pace albeit hopelessly with its
neighbours. Our tours of Myanmar expose
gems of Burmese culture and wonderful places relating directly as much as
possible with the local people. (We
avoid staying in government hotels and eating in government restaurants and
doing as much as possible not to put our dollars into government coffers.)
