What are some things to do in Myanmar?
Myanmar has tons of things to do for visitors from Australia. One of the most popular spots to visit is Shwedagon Pagoda, which can be seen from the rooftops in Yangon. Taking a walking tour of the same city can also be a lot of fun and offer insight into the country’s culture and architecture. A visit to Inle Lake will let visitors take in the stilted houses of the area from one of the many international restaurants. For a more adventurous experience, some travellers choose to dive in the Myeik Archipelago to see the fish, sea life, and corals. Many people also choose to spend a few days in Bagan taking in the hundreds of temples in the area. There are several festivals to check out including the Pindaya Cave Festival in March, Thihoshin Pagoda Festival in June and July, and Maha Thingyan in March.
Do I need a passport or visa to fly to Myanmar?
Travellers coming into Myanmar from Australia will need to have a passport. It should be valid for at least six months after the date of departure. A visa is also required to visit this country, although an eVisa can be applied quite easily. A visa on arrival can be provided for a fee when in transit and moving on, but this service is not always available.
