Destinations

Myanmar's headline destinations have earned their reputations: the temple plain of Bagan, the stilt villages and leg-rowers of Inle Lake, Yangon's colonial streets and the Shwedagon Pagoda, Mandalay and the ancient capitals around it. This collection explains what makes each one worth the journey and how to structure your days there. We write destination guides to be timeless: which temples and sights reward the visit, how places relate geographically, and what a sensible route looks like. Opening hours, entry fees, and transport schedules change often in Myanmar, so we describe what to expect and leave the current numbers to on-the-ground verification.
