EXPLORING BAGAN - Valley of the temples, Myanmar.
Come explore the region with me, dart around on an e-Bike and climb the ruins.
Bagan is home to over 2300 temples, stupas and Pagodas. The small, dusty village is home to a small number of local guesthouses that provide accommodation for the growing number of tourists that the valley of the temples draws.

Facinating trip: Pyin Oo Lwin to Zibingyi stations, Myanmar Railways (Burma)
Facinating trip from Pyin Oo Lwin station, southwest to the town of Zibingyi on the 132 Down Train, on the Lashio to Mandalay line, in the Shan States of Myanmar (Burma). This is a snapshot of an incredible journey and the stations visited en route, and we see lots going on as people arrive, depart, or are just there to sell their goods.
The stations visited along the journey are as follows:
Pyin Oo Lwin
Anisakan - 9:00 min
Thonedaung - 14:40
Zibingyi 22:15
The train leaves Pyin Oo Lwin at 16:40 and arrives in Zibingyi at 18:25, just as it's starting to get dark. The train is pulled by Chinese CNR locomotive, maufactured by Dalian Locomotive & Rolling Stock Co. Ltd., which had a 2000 hp CAT engine.

Myanmar ( Burma ) best Trekking around Kalaw, SAM FAMILY GUIDE SERVICE !
Shan State is a state of Burma (Myanmar). Shan State borders China to the north, Laos to the east, and Thailand to the south, and five administrative divisions of Burma in the west. Largest of the 14 administrative divisions by land area, Shan State covers 155,800 km², almost a quarter of the total area of Burma. The state gets its name from the Shan people, one of several ethnic groups that inhabit the area. Shan State is largely rural, with only three cities of significant size: Lashio, Kengtung, and the capital, Taunggyi.
Der Shan-Staat ist eine der vierzehn Verwaltungseinheiten in Myanmar. Es ist die größte dieser Verwaltungseinheiten und umfasst annähernd ein Viertel der Gesamtfläche des Landes.
Der Shan-Staat grenzt im Norden an China, im Osten an Laos und im Süden an Thailand. Die Westgrenze bilden die myanmarischen Mandalay- und Sagaing-Divisions, nordwestlich schließt sich der Kachin-Staat sowie im Südwesten der Kayah- und der Kayin-Staat an. Der überwiegende Teil des Shan-Staats ist bergiges Gelände. Im Norden und Süden gibt es höhere Berge. Der Staat wird ungefähr in der Hälfte vom von Nord nach Süd fließenden Saluen (Thanlwin) geteilt.
Myanmar '16
Myanmar (also known as Burma) opened up its borders to tourists and businesses around 2013 after its violent and turbulent history under the military regime. Although it was always possible for travelers to visit Myanmar before, it was now made a lot easier to enter. I knew I wanted to visit this country before too many tourists flock to it and eventually changing it. What I got from traveling in Myanmar for 3 weeks was a raw, authentic, and cultural experience filled with so many unique moments that I know would never be replicated elsewhere.
Also coincidently while I was in Myanmar, the country sweared in their first elected president, which officially ended its 56 years of military rule. I was lucky to be there during this monumental day knowing that Myanmar can only improve from then on.
Mandalay (2 nights): Flying from Bangkok, Mandalay was the first city I went to in Myanmar. I did not do too much here besides checking out a few ancient cities around Mandalay and the U Bein Bridge. Other highlights: Staying at Ace Star BnB Backpacker Hostel ($11/night), having our horse carriage break down
Pwin Oo Lwin (1 night): A small colonial town. We stopped by this town to check out the Dat Taw Gyaint Waterfall (via hitchhiking) and to use it as a stop before we took the train to Hsipaw.
Hsipaw (2 nights): Hsipaw is a small, rural town known for its trekking, but we didn’t trek here though. We instead took bikes to explore the town and drank a lot of Burmese tea. The coolest thing we experienced in Hsipaw was being invited by a villager to his local festival in his small Shan village to celebrate the commencement of some of the children becoming novices (the initiation of becoming monks). Barely anyone spoke English here and Taniya and I were the only foreigners in the whole celebration. Other highlights: staying at Red Dragon Hotel for $7/night, meeting a member of the last Shan Prince’s family in the Shan Palace, Mrs. Popcorn’s Garden
Kyaukme (2 nights): We wanted to do some trekking that was more off the beaten path so we booked a tour in Kyaukme, which involved both trekking and motorbiking through the Burmese mountains and different villages. Some of the villages looked like an Asian version of America’s wild west. As we walked through these villages, kids would constantly run up to us to say hi.
Also, we experienced a tense moment during the trek while staying a night at a Palaung village full of rebel Shan army soldiers. What started as a friendly hangout with them ended with the drunk army chief entering the house and taking away one of our tour guides for the night and threatening to tie him against a tree. Luckily, he came back safely the morning after. Although this was a tense moment, I do feel a bit lucky as this could have been worse. A couple weeks after our hike, a tour group in Kyaukme walked off the beaten path (literally) and stepped on a landmine. They all survived though.
Inle Lake (2 nights): Although a bit touristy, taking a boat through Inle Lake for the day was a relaxing and scenic experience. On the lake, you can see how villagers live around the lake including the fisherman famous for paddling with one leg and fishing with the other. On the other day there, we biked around the countryside of Inle Lake, which was also really nice. We stayed at Inlay Palace Hotel for $22/night for 2 people.
Bagan (4 nights): With thousands of temples found within one location, Bagan is an ancient city known to have the largest concentration of Buddhist temples and pagodas. We spent most of our time in Bagan chasing sunrises, sunsets, and even chasing hot air balloons through the temples via e-bikes. You can even climb all over some of these temples, which was really cool. We stayed at Ostello Bello Bagan Hostel for 2 nights ($16/bed) and Arthawka Hotel for another 2 nights ($36/night for 2 people).
Yangon (6 nights): Yangon is the largest city and former capital of Myanmar. I spent a lot time in Yangon because the Thingyan Festival was going on, which is a 5 day Burmese New Years Festival where the entire country shuts down and becomes a giant water fight. Locals would just hop onto pickup trucks going around town blasting each other with water guns and hoses. There were also some concerts scattered around the city. I stayed at Amanda’s/Nick’s place for 3 nights and Space Boutique Hostel for another 3 nights ($10.50/night). Other highlight: Shwedagon Pagoda

In this ethnic Palaung village in Chiang Dao District, the planting season is beginning. Steep fields are cleared of grass and scrub to make way for feed corn and peanuts. Increasingly, villagers are encouraged to spray chemical pesticides and herbicides, which has led to problems all over Thailand. In a few green oases, however, a system of complex agroforestry prevails with a profusion of rattan, palms, bananas and other indigenous species.
