Myanmar (Burma)

I have found Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) to be the most fascinating of the South-East Asian countries. Because of the political situation, it is one of the least westernized countries in the world. I traveled to Myamnar in 2000 with a circular airline pass to explore its four best known sights, which have a magical quality which defies the imagination: Yangon and the wonderful Shwedagon Paya, the site of Bagan with its thousands temples, mythical Mandalay, the unique culture of Lake Inle. classical tourist trail
