Bagan


MYANMAR


Myanmar (Burma) offers a fascinating journey of discovery through one of South East Asia’s least visited, but most rewarding countries with its ancient temples, golden beaches and smiling faces. From the unforgettable temples in Bagan and Mandalay’s fabled history, to largely undiscovered white sand beaches at Ngapali and the placid waters of Inle Lake, Myanmar has a wealth of treasures that exceed the expectations of those who visit.


SHWE DAGON PAGODA, YANGON Covered with hundreds of plates of gold, the stunning Shwe Dagon Pagoda dominates the city’s skyline. A rich repository for almost 2,500 years of Mayanmar culture and heritage, its Golden Pagoda presents a truly unforgettable image as the golden rays of the setting sun radiate across its gilded face.


THE GOVERNOR’S RESIDENCE, YANGON The stylish and imposing grandeur of this restored Burmese mansion house is set within a lotus garden in the city’s embassy district. Its 49 air-conditioned, teak furnished rooms, feature large baths and a range of modern comforts. The hotel also offers the benefits of a pool and a revitalising massage.


MANDALAY Myanmar’s second largest city, Mandalay was the last capital of an independent Burmese kingdom. Founded in 1857 by King Mindon, to fulfil a Buddhist prophecy, its once grand palace was sadly destroyed during World War II. Much of its cultural heritage though is still visible amongst the city’s walls and pavilions.


INLE LAKE Extremely beautiful, Lake Inle is home to Burma’s remarkable ‘leg- rowing’ fishermen. These extraordinary individuals have developed a unique method of rowing that leaves their hands free to drop their conical nets over passing fish. Surrounded by mountains and inhabited by colourful hill tribes, the lake is a wonderful place to relax and reflect.
