Experience Myanmar 2018 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781983787591)

Experience Travel Guides, the guides the Travel Industry trusts, are unique in that they are designed to be read in the same way as a novel. They are a valuable resource for those planning to visit a destination, a source of information for those just interested in finding out more about a country, and a pleasure for those armchair travelers who just enjoy a good read. Experience Myanmar (Burma) highlights the more rewarding parts of the country so that those planning a visit can quickly and efficiently plan an itinerary. We locate and detail the best places to see and the top experiences to enjoy, and recommend accommodation options in all areas. All are based on the personal experience of the author. We capture the personality and the underlying cultural and historical significance of the cities, regions, and holiday destinations. Come with us as we explore bustling Yangon, the wonderful temples and pagodas of Bagan, the unspoiled beaches of the west coast, the historic old northern capital cities, and the pure exhilaration of wonderful Inle Lake. Meet hill-tribe village people, buy fascinating handicrafts, eat tantalizing cuisine, and enjoy charming hospitality. As more people travel to new destinations, guidebooks grow in importance. Hard-copy books, however, are often out of date before they are printed and users are frustrated by experiences contrary to what is described. This book has no such problem as it was thoroughly updated in December 2017 and can be updated as often as necessary to keep it right up to date. Be aware that many internet sites provide out of date or inaccurate information. We have done everything possible to ensure our information is up to date and we will continue to update the book as necessary. Please realize, however, that no guidebook can substitute for common sense. Much of Myanmar is tropical but the northern highlands can get quite cold at night during the main tourist season, so you need to pack clothing, footwear, and other items appropriate for those conditions. It is primarily a Buddhist country so you should be aware of the customs and traditions associated with that religion. The country has been isolated from most of the world for several decades so infrastructure and ideas are behind much of the rest of Asia. It is fast catching up, however, and visitor numbers are growing rapidly. Now is a great time to travel there. We believe that every place in the world provides unique experiences which make a visit worthwhile. We encourage you to explore, meet the locals, and grab each new opportunity as it arises. Traveling is fun but always do it with care and compassion. In that way, your Myanmar experience can provide lifetime memories.
