Myanmar
Life on stilts is even better at Inle Lake
Our last week in Myanmar is in the center-east of the country, in the heart of Shan State. We already know the Shans community a little, since we met them on the other side of the border in Thailand. Cultures and traditions do not stop at administrative boundaries and that’s what is nice to discover.
New year at the heart of Myanmar
After Bagan, we decide to join Mandalay by bus (with JJ Express our favorite company), the main city of northern Myanmar, and discover its surroundings. We quickly discover that Mandalay is as spread over as Yangon. The decision to rent scooters for the day was adopted unanimously.
Myanmar or the pure beauty
We arrive in the midst of school holidays (three months here, not bad for a summer break) and we meet a lot of local tourists from all over the country. Westerners are very rare, and we quickly become the attraction during our visits.
