Destinations in Myanmar |

Controversial and unique Myanmar stands apart from other Asian
destinations. One calls to mind the famous quote from Kipling, ‘It is
quite unlike any place you know about.’ Located right next to Thailand, Myanmar is almost a world apart. The incredible variety of people and sights promises you an experience of a lifetime and a voyage of discovery and knowledge in a land where the monks are worshipped like urban celebrities and where the people greet you like long lost family. A visit to Myanmar will most likely remain with you forever.
Underneath the superb natural beauty and preservation of the ‘true’ Asia with its wobbly buses, roads full of potholes, friendly locals and not ahint of urbanization in sight, Myanmar is unfortunately under the rule of tyrants. Many travelers choose not to visit this sacred country in protest; however the population is worlds apart from the tyrannical regime. The locals are highly gentle, humorous, warm and affectionate, eager to learn more about the world outside and welcoming it to theirhumble abode.
Whether it be witnessing the covering of a Buddha with a gold leaf in the Mahamuni Paya houses in Mandalay, trekking through the lush forests inKalaw, boating down the Ayeyarwady river in an ancient steamer, or relaxing on the glorious Nagapali beach and on the magical Bay of Bengal, Myanmar is one of the most exquisite Asian destinations when it comes to a journey and experience that will stimulate the five senses and be a part of you forever.
