What to see around Yangon

Things to do in Yangon

It is said that the Shwedagon is visible from all over Myanmar, but this probably has more to do with the faith of Burma's believers. Topped by Singuttara Hill and visible from all over Yangon (at least this part is true), the mound is a tall mermaid of glossy stairs and stupa in which saffron-clad friars are praying in a contemplative manner.

Exclusively built by the country's former UK colonizers, the resort is home to the US Embassy, the Yangon Sailing Club and the home where Aung San Suu Kyi lived her years under home detention. People in Burma like shopping and nowhere else but on Bogyoke Aung San Market, a huge cobbled street market hidden behind a pink UK façade.

You' re eating with your foot on Nineteenth Avenue. You' ll probably sniff it before you see it, but that's part of the attraction of 19 th Streets - or the China BBQ lane as the overwhelming tourist calls it. Between the messy streets of Maha Bandoola and Anawrahta Roads, this small lane has developed into a nocturnal lane of eating places dotted with knee-high sculptural chairs and tafl.

Brewery is available at happily hours and meals are inexpensive, making it possible to be as adventure -packed as you like without being starving. Be inspired by George Orwell's Burmese Days. At one point, every Myanmar tourist wandered around Yangon and clutched the Orwell classs.

Orwell' s age is best seen in the former capitol by taking a walk around the city centre to visit more than 20 historical monuments dating back to the end of the nineteenth and early nineteenth centuries.
