Burma
Myanmar (Burma) is a country of golden pagodas, the sprawling temple plains of Bagan, and traditions that have remained largely isolated from the outside world for decades. Its landscapes range from the misty hills of Shan State to the waters of Inle Lake, offering travellers a glimpse of Southeast Asia before mass tourism reshaped it.
