Myanmar children in Mae Sai 2
Children from Myanmar at the Thai-border. They are allowed to be in Thailand during the day, but have to go back to Myanmar every afternoon.
There is no doubt people in Myanmar are poorer than in Thailand. There were moments I was quite devastated. Begging children with my little nephew's eyes, brrr...
Walking down the street one day, there was this group of 3- year-olds surrounding me, helding up their tiny hands for money. They were jumping around and kept following me. I could hardly walk. Then I suddenly stopped walking, I smiled and looked them in the eyes, one by one, and for a change it was me helding up my hand and asking -them- for money. They were so surprised they laughed out loud. And of course I had to laugh with them. One little boy with shiny black eyes pretended he was giving me money in my hand. Even more laughter followed.
From the moment they can walk (even before) they are taught to beg. It becomes a game to them, a habit.
I try not to give money to beggars. I believe in longterm solutions and empowering the people. I also know there are these organised gangs using children as a tool. And women getting abused by their husbands or gangmembers when they don't bring enough money at the end of the day.
When you are living/travelling in less developed countries you will be confronted with poverity on a daily base. I had even a heavier heart in Manila. A monthly donation had been my lazy way not to think about this daily, but in Manila it was hard not to think about this over and over again. And to stick to my system. Sometimes I couldn't resist and gave families some stuff they could use (and feeling weak afterwards)
I wonder how you deal/ dealt with this during your stay in less developed countries. Please feel free to share.

Irrawaddy — the main river of Myanmar. It is all, the largest transport route, the water source for the rice fields, and the object of worshipping.
In Myanmar, there are pagodas at every step.
They build them not for mercantile reasons, but for the purpose of improvement of their karma. This is their way to pray for forgiveness of their sins. The more sins, the taller should be the stupa. This is why, the biggest pagodas were built on the orders of the most cruel and treacherous kings, that were in blood up to the elbow.
The City of Ava, known also as Inva, was founded in the 14th century, at the confluence of the Myinge River with the Irrawaddy River. Up to the year of 1824, it was the capital of Burma and occupied an extensive territory. Only separate ruins remained until now — widely spaced from each other.
On the opposite bank of the Irrawaddy River, in 1824, the city of Mandalay was founded. It was the capital of Burma, during the period of history when the country was being gradually developed by the English colonialists.
Mandalay - the spiritual capital of Myanmar. It is exactly here, where the most highly esteemed Buddha's statue is kept — Buddha Mahamuni or the Great Wiseman.
One more holy site - the Hill of Mandalay. A stone stairway of 999 steps, leads to its top.
11 km from Moniwa, in the 1930's, they built the temple complex of Mohnin Thambudha, occupying the territory of 15 hectares. The main temple - Sambudkh Kat Kiyav - is filled with Buddhas of all types and sizes: from tiny 10-centimeter ones up to 2-3-meters high. They were all counted. According to these exact calculations, there are 582 363 of them here. They possibly planned to reach a million, but there wasn't enough money or persistence.
In the religious complex Laykiun Setkyar, there are much fewer statues. But what kind! The standing Buddha is 116 meters, the lying is slightly smaller - only 90. The gilded stupa, standing at the bottom of the hill, looks tiny. But it is as high as a nine-storey house.
Bagan — one of the main tourist destinations not only of Myanmar, but also of all Indochina. The ruins of the ancient city occupy a triangle of about fifty square kilometers, on the bend of Irrawaddy river.
The State of Shang — one of the national regions of Myanmar. The primary population here are not Burmans, but Shanas. Part of them continues to conduct armed battles, in honor of the creation of their independent state. Huge territories of the Shang State, still remain out of control of the central government. Only the triangle between Khalo, Pindaya and Inle lake, is open for tourists.

Фильм ИНДОКИТАЙ без виз - 3 серия. МЬЯНМА
Иравади— главная река Мьянмы. Это и крупнейшая транспортная артерия, и источник воды для рисовых полей, и объект поклонения.
Город Ава, известный также как Инва, был основан у впадения реки Мьинге в Иравади в 14 веке. Вплоть до 1824 года он был столицей Бирмы и занимал обширную территорию.
На самом почетном месте стоит пагода Сун У Понья Шин. Денег не пожалели. Ступу покрыли золотом. В храме при ней установили гигантскую статую сидящего Будды.
Мандалай - духовная столица Мьянмы. Именно здесь хранится самая высоко почитаемая статуя Будды — Будда Махамуни или Великий Мудрец.
Еще одно святое место - холм Мандалай. На его вершину ведет каменная лестница с 999 ступенями.
В Мьянме до сих пор много районов, закрытых для иностранцев. Сравнительно недавно разрешили въезд в город Монива, находящийся в 136 км к северо-западу от Мандалая. До него можно доехать на обычном рейсовом автобусе.
Паромная переправа связывает город Монива с расположенной на противоположном берегу реки Чиндвин деревней Няунгбин.
От пристани отправляются маршрутки к пещерам По Вин Даунг.
В 11 км от Монивы в 30-х годах построили храмовый комплекс Мохнин Тхамбудхе, занимающий территорию 15 гектаров. Главный храм - Самбудха Кат Кияв - заполнен Буддами всех видов и размеров: от крошечных 10-сантиметровых до 2-3-метровых.
Баган — одна из главных туристических достопримечательностей не только Мьянмы, но и всего Индокитая. Руины древнего города занимают треугольник площадью около пятидесяти квадратных километров на излучине реки Иравади.
Огромные территории штата Шан по-прежнему остаются вне контроля центрального правительства. Для туристов открыт только треугольник между Кало, Пиндая и озером Инле.
В 40 км от Кало на берегу озера Боуталоке находится городок Пиндая. В его окрестностях много карстовых пещер. В самой большой из них устроили что-то типа огромного склада изображений Будды.
Для треккеров в штате Шан проложены десятки маршрутов. Но трекинг разрешен только под контролем официальных гидов. А на ночь туристы могут останавливаться только в «сертифицированных» для приема иностранцев домах.
На берегах озера Инле живет около 70 тысяч человек. Их называют интха - «дети озера».
В городке Няунг-Шве есть гостиницы для туристов. Но еще больше здесь монастырей. Они занимают целый квартал города.
Самый заметный и отличающийся своим архитектурным обликом монастырь - Ядана Ман Аун Пайя.
Буддистские монастыри на озере Инле строят так же, как и дома — на сваях. А самый большой их них построили на искусственном острове.
Монастырь Пхаунг Дау У — не только самый большой, но и самый оригинальный с архитектурной точки зрения, и самый почитаемый.
Путешествие по Мьянме завершается там же, где и началось две недели назад — в Янгоне.
Настраивайтесь на длительный просмотр и наслаждайтесь.
