Myanmar with the information in my memory four years ago, is the country of the mysterious Golden Triangle region, has not been exempt from visa, want to go from one area to another only way to fly, with ancient capital of Bagan with thousands of ancient temples, there are people on foot sailing vast Inle lake, the longest teak bridge world is a place to sit watching the beautiful sunset ... And 4 years later, when I type in keyword searches on Google Myanmar, both million results come up with to share articles and pictures of people who have been to Myanmar. Experience walking, eating and sleeping ... extremely detailed. In the beginning I think many readers will be chaos, just select a schedule like most do their intended "lodestar" for the trip is going wrong. We booked the ticket blocks away with $ 2.8 million Myanmar / person, about one third cheaper than the normal fare. Now to Myanmar without having to apply for a visa as before, just hold passports do exit procedures, entry at the airport is easy and fast. As experience has read, many people advised to reserve all services to be a good price, a guide, shuttle arrival. However, due to discover, a little adventure so we decided to go, taking it. Distance from Hanoi to Yangon quite short, only takes 1 hour and 30 minutes, flying over land. Low range, if the sky could see everything below. Yangon welcomed us with rain ... as expected. September is the rainy season in Myanmar. Rain could all day, cloudy, humid air makes people easy to cold. This weather pattern not dissimilar to Hanoi, persistent rain prevented us from thinking about the gloomy outlook is not able to play where. We completed immigration procedures rather fast, not particularly bothered. Next is the exchange of money. For every 100 dollars at the airport is 96,900 kyat exchange (convert into 31.8 days). In cities, there are few places with more attractive rates but attached many conditions are "silly": new to hard dollar amount, not wrinkle, even if there is even a bar wrinkles alone would be devalued . The daily USD lower denomination value lower back. Description 1USD unpopular here. The city Yangon hardly any shade a motorcycle, all-automotive and automotive. Take a taxi in Yangon is a memorable experience. Taxis do not have meters, comfortable bargain, averaging around 10,000 VND / km. Prices go from the airport to the city center is about 7,000 kyat (about 150,000). Price travel around the city falls into the range of 1500-2000 kyat (30000-40000 copper). Notably, Yangon is planning chess board pattern, little corners like in Vietnam. The streets in Yangon wide, multi-lane, but went one way. You can only point you need to taxi, the driver nodded, agreed price finished, drive very far neglected to arrive, see their money spent was worth it. But then, I discovered destination not far from us in, only for one-way road to Yangon taxi to go ders according type "near the far lane." Yangon also at places, famous Shwedagon pagoda especially gold. We came here at a time when people of Myanmar called month of Buddha, so very crowded temple. All must put on shoes from entering the port. Maybe taking the stairs, escalators or lifts for the tower area faster. For foreign visitors, the morning to visit the temple to buy 8,000 kyat entrance / ticket. Clothing must be worn over the knee, knee pants mezzanine ngố which must also buy longi entwined trunks. And one more point that foreign tourists are allowed to go around the temple, not inside the main tower. This made me curious and somewhat regret. After a long night of rain, heavy, morning in Yangon cloudy sky, sunny and quite muggy. Anyway heaven "commercial" is not too good rain. Go tired legs, we find eateries to enjoy dishes of Myanmar. Quan called Feel Myanmar situated on the road around there are many embassies of countries. Glider one round, we feel quite satisfied with furnished dishes from Asia, Europe to the traditional dishes of Myanmar. Of course we also choose to select some Myanmar to try, but not the best idea because it spicy and salty. Had to turn over the dish looked like in Vietnam to "eat for healing". Finally it was a drunken meal, decent for about 20,000 kyat for 4 people. Hotels in Yangon true fruit of many people comment: expensive and not nice. The spacious hotel a little bit comfortable rooms, prices from 20-30 USD / night. And if bad, dirty, about USD 15 / night. The hotel we stayed utilize solar energy to heat water. However, it rained a lot that just warm water. But not enough warm water supply for the whole hotel so many times we have to pity a cold shower ...
