Mingalaba!

Warm smiles will greet you in response to this commonly shared blessing. Heavily influenced by Buddhism and the Mon people, it's neighbours India and China have also shaped Burmese culture. And remember no patting! The head is the most sacred part the body, including for children.

Get to Bagan

Home to the largest concentration of Buddhist monuments in the world. Find a temple with a view of the Irrawaddy river to the west, or the mountains to the east, for a sunrise or a sunset you won't easily forget.

Sleep in a monastery

Wake to the sounds of Buddhist monks reciting their chakras and share in their calm aura. Over 90% of Myanmar's population are practicing Buddhists. Every Burmese boy aged 7-13 enters the monastery as a novice for a few weeks to set them on the path of peace.

Try one-legged rowing

Hop on a long tail boat to visit floating villages, stilt houses, markets and floating gardens. On the water witness the Intha practice their one-legged paddling while they fish - a skill they have been refining for hundreds of years.
