Myanmar Motorcycle Journey 6 - Pinlaung
It was full moon day, and so as with all full moons, a special day for Theraveda Buddhists. I got to see a remarkable procession. After a stop at the Mway Daw Payagyi pagoda, we then visit the Loi Maung Taung Pagoda on a hilltop nearby. The most amazing vista I've ever seen in Myanmar.

Myanmar Motorcycle Journey 4 - Inle Lake
No motorcycling in this episode. It was a non-travel day. Instead, I got out on the motorcycle of the water, a Myanmar lake boat!
HAPPY ENDING after GIANT DARK CAVE in Myanmar ???? | Sofian Worldwide #25
Sadan Cave - that's the name of the gigantic dark cave we visited in this video. As always, it was one of our spontaneous trips to Hpa-an and we didn't know what to expect. But it was definitely worth it. Here you will also find more information about Sadan Cave, if you are interested. Otherwise have fun watching!
The Sadan cave is about 27 km (17 miles) southeast of Hpa-an. The entrance fee is a small donation of about 1500 kyat (about 0,90€ or 1,10$). The gigantic cave begins with tons of Buddhas and pagodas, which is really impressive. As a foreigner, I took many photos with locals at this station and felt like a kind of attraction here, which was really fun.
In the next step the actual way through the cave begins, which takes about 15 minutes. If the lights weren't coming with you, it would really be pitch black in this cave! But the path was beautifully decorated. After a few minutes you notice that it is getting louder and louder. This is due to the innumerable bats that call this cave their home. Slightly frightening but also very peaceful!
Since we hadn't done any research before and left relatively blind, we didn't know what to expect at the end of this cave.
The happy ending:
At first glance, it looks like a small, remote paradise. But that was it even after the second look! An unbelievably peaceful and beautiful place where you can take a break, eat and drink. Surrounded by green fields and flowers between the mountains you can relax here.
And we missed the Sadan Cave's highlight thanks to our lack of research. The canoes, which looked like a small tour in the lake for us, actually lead back to the beginning or entrance of the cave. The way there is said to be incredibly beautiful and costs only another 1500 kyat (approx. 0,90€ or 1,10$). But since we started from a tourist tour, we walked back through the cave, which was really great!
A recommendable excursion in the wonderful Hpa-an!

A long ride that took us about seven hours. First the roads were twisted, then they turned into a roller coaster which was fun. Brilliant sights! :-)
