Cultural Tour at Myanmar (Burma)





Some tourist would like to visit Myanmar several times for just enjoy the culture.

The culture of Myanmar was influenced by Buddism, the Mon people (an ethic group of Myanmar), India, Thailand and China. However, the culture of this country had change and will continue change because it influenced by the British colonial rule and westernisation.  



Bagan, the Land of a Thousand Temples, is appropriately named with temples sprawling out as far as the eye can see. For an unparalleled view of the Bagan plain, you can take a hot air balloon ride at sunrise through a company called Balloons Over Bagan. 


Visit the night market too for experience the local culture. Although there aren’t many things to buy or play, but this is a good way to feel the culture of Myanmar.




Visit Shwedagon Pagoda is a must in order to find the great pagoda. It also called as Golden Pagoda based on the design.



Don’t forget to check out the Inle Lake too. This is an enormous body of water populated by thousands of traditional fisherman working strenuously from their leg-paddled rowboats.


Otherwise, visit the Kandawgyi Lake(Victoria Lakes). There is a Karaweik Buffet Restaurant which offer a wide selection of Asian dishes and one hour cultural show.
