Myanmar - Yangon City Tour
11 Things To Do in Yangon, Myanmar (Are You Ready!?)
Get more details about these things to do in Yangon here:
1. Shwedagon Pagoda (ရွှေတိဂုံစေတီတော်) - Probably the most important religious monument and most sacred site in Yangon and throughout Myanmar is the Shwedagon Pagoda (ရွှေတိဂုံစေတီတော်). The golden stupa of the pagoda is covered in gold, and it’s so bright that I you have squint when you look at it. At the top of the pagoda, in the small umbrella looking top, are thousands of gems and diamonds - though it’s pretty challenging to see all the way up there. The Shwedagon Pagoda is a place you must visit when you’re in Yangon.
2. Local Market - One of my favorite things to do in any city I visit about the world is to visit a local fresh market - that’s where life takes place and where the action goes down. There are no shortage of fresh local markets in Yangon, and one of the best in downtown is on 26th street, across the main road from the Shri Kali Temple. The market occupies a block of downtown, and there’s an indoor section, but I really like the street side part of the market.
3. Bogyoke Aung San Market - One of the centrally located markets in downtown Yangon, located at the northern side of town, is Bogyoke Aung San Market, also known by its former name of Scott Market. If you’re looking for souvenirs, gems and jewelry, and fabric, this is a great place for you to visit when you’re in Yangon.
4. Sule Pagoda (ဆူးေလဘုရား) - Another one of the most important religious, political, and overall just city landmarks in Yangon is the Sule Pagoda - basically all roads eventually lead to the Sule Pagoda and it’s a huge transportation hub. You can pay to enter the pagoda for $3, but in my opinion there’s not that much to see inside, but it’s rather the things around the are that are more impressive.
5. Chinatown, Yangon - One of my favorite things to do in Yangon is eat, and if you love food and markets, Chinatown is a place you can’t miss. In the evening, the city of Yangon in the Chinatown area comes alive sprawling with food and people. 19th street in Yangon is a very famous as the barbecue street in the city, and there are a few restaurants where you can get a table, choose some kebabs and have them barbecue them up for you. If you love eating and drinking, dinner at 19th street is one of the fun things to do in Yangon.
6. Kandawgyi Park - There are two parts to Kandawgyi Park, the boardwalk, and the restaurants area - each has an entrance fee. It makes a great relief from the city and place to relax in the natural beauty.
7. Chaukhtatgyi Paya (Chak Htat Gyi Buddha) - This giant reclining Buddha is housed in a huge shed, and it’s among the main Buddhist religious sites in Yangon. Originally in the same location, there was a seating Buddha, but when it fell over, it was replaced by a reclining.
8. National Museum of Myanmar - If you’d like to know more about the history and culture of Myanmar (Burma), one of the attractions in Yangon that you should check out is the National Museum. It was a little outdated, but the exhibitions were educational and interesting.
9. Yangon Circular Railroad - Not really one of the traditional things to do in Yangon, Myanmar, but taking the local circular train route is a great opportunity to see some of the outskirts of the city.
10. Walk Around Yangon - Probably the best way to experience the city is to just get out on your feet and explore Yangon by food - you never know what’s going to happen or what you’re going to see or come across, but it will be full of action.
11. Myanmar Food and Street Food - There’s nothing better than traveling to eat and experiences a country through its food. Yangon is filled with both street food stalls and restaurant where you can get a sample of the local cuisine. Another part of the Myanmar culture I love is the constant tea drinking - nearly everywhere you look, you’ll find a place to sit on the side of the road and drink a cup of hot tea and socialize.
Yangon is a great city, and what I love so much about it is that it’s always full of action, people are extremely friendly, there are many different types of food and street food to try, and it’s just such a vibrant, always entertaining city. Hope you can visit Yangon!

Yangon (Burmese: ရန်ကုန်; MLCTS: rankun mrui, pronounced [jàŋɡòũ mjo̰]; also known as Rangoon) is a former capital of Burma and the capital of Yangon Division. Although the military government has officially relocated the capital to Naypyidaw since March 2006,[3] Yangon, with a population of four million, continues to be the country's largest city and the most important commercial center.
Yangon's infrastructure is undeveloped compared to those of other major cities in Southeast Asia. Yangon has the largest number of colonial buildings in Southeast Asia today.[4] While many high-rise residential and commercial buildings have been constructed or renovated throughout downtown and Greater Yangon in the past two decades, most satellite towns that ring the city continue to be deeply impoverished.
The largest and best maintained parks in Yangon are located around Shwedagon Pagada. To the southeast of the gilded stupa is the most popular recreational area in the city Kandawgyi Lake. The 150 acre (60.7-hectare) lake is surrounded by the 110 acre (44.5-hectare) Kandawgyi Nature Park,[24] and the 69.25 acre (28-hectare) Yangon Zoological Gardens, which consists of a zoo, an aquarium and an amusement park.[25] West of the pagoda towards the former Hluttaw (Parliament) complex is the 130 acre (53-hectare) Peoples Square and People's Park, (the former parading ground on important national days when Yangon was the capital.)[26] A few miles north of the pagoda lies the 37 acre (15-hectare) Inya Lake Park a favorite hangout place of Yangon University students, and a well-known place of romance in Burmese popular culture.
Hlawga National Park and Allied War Memorial at the outskirts of the city are popular day-trip destinations with the well-to-do and tourists.

YANGON RELIGIOUS BUILDINGS TOUR - MYANMAR TRAVEL HIGHLIGHTS
When visiting Yangon, be sure to schedule a 2-3 hour guided walking tour of downtown Yangon. There are several guided tour operators and tour options. There are also self-guided walking routes you can find online. However, a walking tour led by someone familiar with the city includes a lot of context and insights that you might miss on your own. We enjoyed a religious buildings guided tour by the Yangon Heritage Trust.

MYANMAR: EXPLORING the scenic STREET MARKETS in YANGON
#VicStefanu
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's visit the fascinating country of Myanmar (Burma) in Southeast Asia and let's go to Yangon, the country's largest city. Early in the morning, we will visit a street market close to the city's large port, very iconic images here. Yangon (formerly known as Rangoon) is the largest city in Myanmar (formerly Burma). A mix of British colonial architecture, modern high-rises and gilded Buddhist pagodas define its skyline. Its famed Shwedagon Paya, a huge, shimmering pagoda complex, draws thousands of pilgrims annually. The city's other notable religious sites include the Botataung and Sule pagodas, both housing Buddhist relics.
Myanmar (formerly Burma) is a Southeast Asian nation of more than 100 ethnic groups, bordering India, Bangladesh, China, Laos and Thailand. Yangon (formerly Rangoon), the country's largest city, is home to bustling markets, numerous parks and lakes, and the towering, gilded Shwedagon Pagoda, which contains Buddhist relics and dates to the 6th century.

Burma Myanmar tour Christmas in Rangoon
These photos were taken by Ken Osetroff during the 2008 Toursgallery small group tour in Burma ( Myanmar). Help us support the private enterprise business owners in Burma. These friendly people need tourists so that their privately owned restaurants, hotels, buses and attractions can survive. Join this small group tour that departs every December. This is a 15 day escorted tour, off the beaten track, in the footsteps of Rudyard Kipling. People who boycot Burma are only hurting the citizens of Burma. Individual business owners in Burma are relying on the few dollars, that the very few visitors do spend, in order for them to survive. toursgallery.com
Have Christmas Dinner in the historic Strand Hotel in Rangoon and start the tour with accommodation in The Governors Residence Hotel, have a 2 nights cruise on Irrawaddy River, then head upcountry into the less developed parts of Burma.

Shampoo Island is a tiny place just a short distance from shore in Mawlamyine. The island is home to a group of monks living in monasteries there. However, they encourage visitors, and it's possible to take a small local boat out to the island and back again.
As I said in the video, trips to places like Shampoo Island are my favorite type of day trip because they don't involve hours of difficult travel. The boats to the island are right inside city limits, and getting there involves nothing more than a pleasant stroll to the jetty on the river and getting on a small boat. Just a few minutes later, you're there.
It's a beautiful island - very lush and shady with a multitude of pagodas and interesting sights. But it also comes with an interesting history, and it seemed like an obvious place for a 5-Fact Travel Challenge. Was I successful with this challenge? Did I learn 5 interesting new facts? Yes, I guess I did, but I needed a bit of help from the Internet.

UNIQUE Myanmar STREET FOOD TOUR in Yangon
I have a very unique Myanmar's Street Food tour. Myanmar Foods are really delicious that they really cook well. I have tried five dishes in Yangon which is the biggest city in Myanmar. You can try some of them if you go to Myanmar. But two things seriously you must try is Pickled Tea Leaf Salad and Mohinga. Specially Pickled Tea Leaf Salad can go really well with beer.
1. Pickled Tea Leaf Salad (Lahpet)
Location :
It is very unique food because they use tea as a salad. Fermented Pickled Tea with nuts and vegetables has a very unique taste.
2. A typical Myanmar meal
Location :
If you order the main dish like meat or fish, you would get side dishes like salad, soup, and vegetables for free. You can have it for lunch or dinner. Usually, Myanmar cooks well that always it has good taste.
3. Noodle Salad
Location :
It is served with salad, vegetable, and a few different seasonings. This dish is good for a snack cause it is a light meal.
4. Pork Offal Skewers (Wet Thar Dote Htoe)
Location :
It is pork offal cooked in light soy sauce. The meat placed on the stick includes the internal organs of the pig including its intestine, liver, kidney, spleen, heart, lungs, tongue and even the skin and cartilage. At first, you dip the stick into a soup and then dip into chili sauce. Soup has a really deep flavor.
5. Mohinga
Location :
It is a rice noodle and fish soup. It is the national dish you must try if you go to Myanmar. Usually, it is eaten for breakfast. Every region cooks the different way that if you travel whole Myanmar, you can taste different Mohinga.
