Thousands of ancient Buddhist temples, extraordinary hospitality and Southeast Asia's most authentic culture.
Myanmar is undergoing a complex political situation that requires careful consideration before visiting. For those who do go, it offers something that no other Southeast Asian country can: the Bagan plain with 2,000+ ancient Buddhist temples, the floating village life of Inle Lake and a Buddhist culture so pervasive and genuine that it transforms the experience of travel. Check current FCDO/State Department advice carefully before booking.

The Bagan plain at 5am before sunrise is completely empty — arriving before the light is worth every early alarm
