MYANMAR-LAKE INLE - FEB 2016


Myanmar Feb 2016

Lake Inle, Nyaung Swee

23 Feb 2015

The Myanmar National Airlines plane landed at Lake Heho airport just passed noon. The airport is just a building that has no semblance of any airport at all. We took a taxi to Nyaung Shwe town and checked into Yar Pyae Hotel.


The taxi drove through some unpaved roads and the impression I got looking out of the car was this place was much undeveloped.






The afternoon, we walk around Nyaung Shwe. We saw paddy field and many river boats at the canal.









We walked the surrounding hills and visit a Buddhist temple complex.
















Viewed a local wine orchard




Returned to hotel, viewed town from the roof top and watched sunset over the hills







                                                                     


Walking around the town centre










Had dinner at Shan restaurant






The next morning on our way to the jetty for the Lake tour, we saw 2 large pagodas. This eventually became the theme of every places we viewed in Myanmar, lots of pagodas, temples and stupas everywhere.

Yandana Man Aung Su Taung Pyay Pagoda
