Q: What do you think are the best places in Myanmar to travel to and why?

One of the best places in Myanmar is Yangon, situated in the southern part of Myanmar. From here we can go to Mawlamyine and Hpa-An to see the Ramseur site area and to enjoy the nature. Other great places are the cultural cities of Mandalay and Bagan, where there is beautiful architecture and mural paintings; Shan State is remarkable as here you will find Inle Lake, also known by some as the “Venice of the East”. Kayah state is great for hiking and to experience the lifestyle of the locals.

Q: Think of all activities that travelers to Myanmar can do. Which activities do you think are the most exciting and adventurous?

Myanmar offers so many incredible activities. Among my favorites are taking the circular train and trishaws in Yangon, sitting in a large truck taking visitors up the mountain to Golden Rock Pagoda, walking inside the many caves, hiking along the mountain ranges and paddy fields. So many exciting and adventurous activities.

Q: Let’s talk about real Myanmar food. Which food is your favorite and why?

Mohingar (rice noodle with fish gravy) is one of Myanmar’s most traditional soups. Most of the people love this and this is our signature food of Myanmar.
