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 get a chance to see some really nice scenery, then he might want to visit Kyaiktiyo. It is in this place that one will be able to see the famous Golden Rock. One can stay overnight at the small town of Kinpun before he goes out to the wilderness and do some hiking until he reaches the beautiful Golden Rock.

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.

Now if one would want to go to a place where a lot of temples reside, then the best place to go to is none other than Bagan. In fact, Bagan is actually home to around a thousand really beautiful temples. To make things even more interesting, one can ride around a horse carriage in order to view some of the temples in the place.

One of the most beautiful places in the entire country is none other than the famous Lake Inle which is the best place to visit if one would want to immerse himself in nature. One can go boating here or even trekking in order to see a lot of very interesting flora and fauna. From here, one can also hike from Kalaw to Nyaung Shwe from this Lake Inle.

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.
