best places to visit in myanmar
Bagan
Bagan is an ancient city and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Mandalay Region of Myanmar.
Also, Bagan is the number one attraction in Myanmar and is home to over 2,000 enchanting stupas spread across the endless countryside. The best part about Bagan is that, unlike other archaeological sites, it is still fairly untouched by tourists. The best way to experience the utter magic of Bagan is by taking a hot air balloon ride at sunrise. You can also explore one of Baga’s local markets – such as the Mani Sithu Market – cycle past the temples on a bike or e-bike, and shop for high-quality lacquer products. And if it’s a foodie experience you’re after, you’ll have no trouble finding quality Asian cuisine here.
Yangon
Yangon, also known as Rangoon, is the capital of the Yangon Region and the largest city in Myanmar.
This exciting and colorful city has so much to offer – from Buddhist monuments to scenic parks and lakes. You can take a walk through the streets, and you’ll discover so much history. Colonial buildings, museums, art galleries, and markets stand just along every corner of the city. Take your time soaking up the essence of Yangon at many of its religious sites, such as Shwedagon Pagoda – a towering golden steeple, and Botataung Pagoda. Also, make sure you indulge in the city’s mouth-watering Burmese street food.
