| Inle Lake |
| A 22 km long and 11 km wide, calm waters of Inle Lake is one of most attractive attractions in Myanmar. The unique charming lake give visitors innovative pictures of floating markets, gardens, and villages that have been created by the hard-working people of Intha who live on stilted homes. Intha are famous for rowing their flat-bottom boats with one leg and using cone-shaped nets in association with their legs to harvest crab and fish. The lake is rich in biological diversity: it is not a surprised to see flocks of waterfowls and other wildlife searching for food in the lake. Canoeing quietly is the best way to discover this magnificent lake, but don’t forget to look for fabulous backdrop of hills which make the lake even more scenic. |

| Mandalay |
| The cultural center of Myanmar lies in the heart of the country and at the hub of river flows from China and India. Situated about 600 kilometers north of Yangon, Mandalay is the economic and religious center of the Upper Myanmar. Mandalay itself was the capital of the last independent Burmese kingdom founded in 1857 by King Mindon and later was conquered by the British in 1886. Being ruled by the British as well as a religious center, Mandalay possesses a wide variety of interesting attractions ranging from old colonial city around Mahamuni Temple to the unique Burmese art with magnificent Jataka scenes engraved on panels of teakwood at Shwenandaw Temple. Most worth visiting points in Mandalay are the four ancient cities of Amarapura, Inwa (Ava), Sagaing, and Mingun. Today, there are interesting shows such as puppet and traditional dances performed in Mandalay. The town is also a center for silk and cotton weaving as well as marble stone carving. |
