All About Going Myanmar Backpacking

By Timothy Stevens


Myanmar is one of the most interesting places in all of South East Asia because most of the areas in the country have not been explored yet. In fact, this country is one of the areas in the whole Asia that has not really been urbanized and has retained a lot of its original charm. So if one would want to go myanmar backpacking and exploring, here is a guide that will help him get around.

Number one on the list of places to visit would of course be the city of Yangon. It is in this very place that one will be able to see the biggest pagoda in the country known as the Shwedagon Pagoda which is the only gold colored pagoda in Myanmar. This pagoda is known to be the most amazing of all pagodas in the entire region of South East Asia.

Now if one would want to take to the hills and over to the fields, then the place to visit would be Kyaiktiyo. This is a great place for one to relax as he can stay in the small town of Kinpun and make his way to the famous Golden Rock. This place is also great for some hiking journeys as well as wilderness trekking.

Now for those who prefer to visit the energetic and busy streets, Mandalay is the place to visit. Mandalay is the place where the very famous U Bien Bridge is. It is also the home of the very famous Mandalay Hill which is the most beautiful viewpoint in the entire country.

Bagan is the area in Myanmar that has the most temples with around two thousand temples that can be seen. If one would want to get around, he can actually ride on a horse carriage so that he may experience the authenticity of the place. He can take a horse carriage to take a look at the really beautiful temples that can be found in the area.

If one is more into the nature scene, then a place that he will definitely want to visit is Lake Inle. Lake Inle is the center of forests and a lot of wilderness. If one is into hiking, then he will enjoy trekking from Kalaw to Nyaung Shwe after he comes from the lake. The lake is also a great place for him to relax and chill.

If one is more of the beach scene type of person, then the best place to go would be Ngapali beach. Ngapali beach is not like the mainstream beaches with resorts and hotels. Ngapali beach is a rather quaint little beach that has a very cozy feel with all the huts and trees surrounding the area.

So as one can see, there are actually a lot of sights to see here and a lot of great places to go to. If one would make his way to this country, he will without a doubt be able to enjoy himself to no ends. This country is definitely an untapped oil well that needs a lot of exploring.
