Nature and parks of Myanmar-Burma
Myanmar is a relatively big country – its territory is the 39th largest in the world. It is not possible to explore all parts of Myanmar on foot. Moreover, some areas are closed to visitors. Tourists can enter them only if they have a special permit and only together with a guide. Riding from one town to another can take much time. Intercity bus rides of 5-10 and more hours are typical in Myanmar, but many tourists cannot waste so much time, especially if their vacation in Myanmar is short. Also, the country is so rich in interesting landmarks that it is hard to see them all. The airplane is the optimal way of moving between cities. For moving within city borders, taxi is the best choice. In natural reserves, tourists can often only walk. Upon arriving in a certain town, it is a good idea to buy a map of that town as it will be easier to navigate with it. … OpenPhotogallery of Bago-Pegu sights
