DavidTravel Itinerary Highlights include:

Myanmar is your destination if you appreciate splendorous images and stunning scenery. You need look no further if you are interested in awe-inspiring cultural devotion and legendary historical testimony. Celebrated timeworn pagodas, magnificent holy shrines, and stunning natural scenery cover the landscape and await you at every turn. Amazingly, all this opulent beauty was shielded from the eyes of Westerners until recent years. You’ll gaze upon the fabled temples of old Burma and be inspired by their golden stupas and mosaic-inlaid art. The countryside and people of Myanmar are a part of a world that you would never dream of missing. Step back in time and treat your senses to the sights, sounds and tastes of this marvelous region.

• See the Shwedagon Pagoda, the Golden Pagoda, in Yangon

• Learn about the early life of Buddha at the Gubyaukhyi Temple at Wetkyi-Inn

• Visit Amanpura and explore the Mahagandayon

• Monastery, Myanmar’s largest Buddhist monastery with over 1,000 resident monks and novices

• Experience the vast plain of Bagan with its hundreds of stupas

Overview:

With dense forests, abundant wildlife, friendly people, rich culture and underdeveloped coastal resorts, Myanmar (previously known as Burma) is certainly a beautiful corner of Asia. Sadly, however, an unstable political situation substantially detracts from Myanmar’s credentials as an alluring tourist destination.

Would-be tourists face a difficult choice in whether to come. On the one hand, Myanmar has many attractions: thousands of pagodas, fascinating culture and ancient towns among them. Also, tourists are welcomed with open arms by locals hungry for news of the outside world, and for their economic contribution.
