A Burmese Odyssey: Exploring the Golden Land
Check out my adventure as I explored Yangon, Myanmar (formerly Burma), also known as the Golden Land for its glittering Pagodas everywhere. Don't miss the stop at the shining jewel of Qatar, Doha.
My only wish would be that you could make a trip over the great ocean. The land is golden, the people are so gracious and they have thought me many things about kin and kindness - Rangoon Tea House

Trip Around Yangon, Myanmar
Our last stop on the trip to Myanmar was Yangon. It is the country's largest city with a population of over 5 million, and is the most important commercial center, although the military government officially relocated the capital to Naypyidaw in March 2006.
The video shows us in the downtown market and then moving uptown to the Shwedagon Pagoda. The temple is the most sacred Buddhist pagoda in Myanmar.

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.

Myanmar 2013: Preserving Yangon
Stepping Back in Time in Myanmar
Dramatic Myanmar (Burma) is an intrepid traveller's dream. This is a land where holy men clad in traditional longyi are revered, thousands of ancient, religious stupas rise out of flat plains and floating-village life ebbs and flows upon Inle Lake. For a glimpse of old Indochina, there isn't a more eye-opening destination than this mysterious country, which only began allowing Western travellers into its borders in recent years.
Experience the best of Myanmar, with Abercrombie & Kent, from tranquil Inle Lake to the thousands of stupas in Bagan, pausing to explore Shwedagon Pagoda with its shimmering gemstones; ascending Mount Popa, where you walk among the devout; and discovering the bustling Five Day Market as colorfully garbed locals procure their daily necessities.
Yangon, the country's largest city, is a beguiling mix of British, Burmese, Chinese and Indian influences, from its timeworn colonial architecture to its unique cuisine. In this deeply Buddhist country, pagodas pockmark the land, and some of the most impressive ones can be found in Yangon, including the Shwedagon Pagoda and the Sule Pagoda.
Travel to Mandalay, Myanmar's major commercial center, and explore sites such as the monastery-studded Mandalay Hill, a pilgrimage site for Buddhists for nearly two centuries. Perhaps the best way to experience both the romance of the colonial era and see the Burmese people's day-to-day realities is by cruising on the Ayeyarwady River - aboard the new 'Sanctuary Ananda' - all the way to Bagan, disembarking at temples and viewing life along the river.
If Yangon and Mandalay are Myanmar's capitals of culture and commerce, then Bagan is the country's spiritual center. Over 2,000 pagodas, stupas and temples dot the golden plains of Bagan - a once-in-a-lifetime sight to behold, best seen from above by private hot air balloon, which can be arranged by A&K Myanmar Travel. Other highlights include the Ananda Temple, the best-preserved in the city, and Mount Popa, a stunning volcano that doubles as an ancient Buddhist pilgrimage site.

REF:
Myanmar (English pronunciation below; မြန်မာ Burmese [mjəmà]),officially the Republic of the Union of Myanmar, and also known as Burma, is a country in Southeast Asia. Myanmar is bordered by India and Bangladesh to its west, Thailand and Laos to its east and China to its north and northeast. Myanmar is the largest of the mainland Southeast Asian states. To its south, about one third of Myanmar's total perimeter of 5,876 km (3,651 mi) forms an uninterrupted coastline of 1,930 km (1,200 mi) along the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea.[citation needed] The country's 2014 census counted the population to be 51 million people. As of 2017, the population is about 54 million.Myanmar is 676,578 square kilometres (261,228 square miles) in size. Its capital city is Naypyidaw (Nay Pyi Taw), and its largest city is Yangon (Rangoon). Myanmar has been a member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) since 1997.
Early civilisations in Myanmar included the Tibeto-Burman-speaking Pyu city-states in Upper Burma and the Mon kingdoms in Lower Burma. In the 9th century, the Bamar people entered the upper Irrawaddy valley and, following the establishment of the Pagan Kingdom in the 1050s, the Burmese language, culture and Theravada Buddhism slowly became dominant in the country. The Pagan Kingdom fell due to the Mongol invasions and several warring states emerged. In the 16th century, reunified by the Taungoo dynasty, the country was for a brief period the largest empire in the history of Mainland Southeast Asia. The early 19th century Konbaung dynasty ruled over an area that included modern Myanmar and briefly controlled Manipur and Assam as well. The British took over the administration of Myanmar after three Anglo-Burmese Wars in the 19th century and the country became a British colony. Myanmar was granted independence in 1948, as a democratic nation. Following a coup d'état in 1962, it became a military dictatorship under the Burma Socialist Programme Party.
For most of its independent years, the country has been engrossed in rampant ethnic strife and its myriad ethnic groups have been involved in one of the world's longest-running ongoing civil wars. During this time, the United Nations and several other organisations have reported consistent and systematic human rights violations in the country. In 2011, the military junta was officially dissolved following a 2010 general election, and a nominally civilian government was installed. This, along with the release of Aung San Suu Kyi and political prisoners, has improved the country's human rights record and foreign relations, and has led to the easing of trade and other economic sanctions. There is, however, continuing criticism of the government's treatment of ethnic minorities, its response to the ethnic insurgency, and religious clashes. In the landmark 2015 election, Aung San Suu Kyi's party won a majority in both houses. However, the Burmese military remains a powerful force in politics.
