------------------------------------------------------

Historical Background

The first known people to live in what is now Myanmar (formerly called Burma) were the Mon. They shared a culture with the Khmer, a people who lived in what is now Cambodia. The Mon moved into the Myanmar region as early as 3000 B.C. and settled near the mouths of the Thanlwin and Sittaung rivers. The peoples who came later migrated from an area in central Asia that is now southwestern China. The Pyu arrived in the A.D. 600's. The Bamars, Chin, Kachin, Karen, and Shan came during the 800's. Most of these peoples lived apart from one another and kept their own cultures.

In 1044, King Anawrahta, a Myanmar ruler, united the region and founded the First Myanmar Empire, that lasted nearly 250 years. The kingdom's capital, Bagan, lay on the Ayeyarwaddy (Irrawaddy) River in the central part of the country. The Myanmars adopted features of the Mon and Pyu cultures, including Theravada Buddhism. Mongol invaders led by Kublai Khan captured Bagan in 1287, shattering the kingdom.

A new Myanmar kingdom arose as the Second Myanmar Empire founded by King Bayintnaung at Taungoo during the 1500's. It was brought down by a Mon rebellion in 1752. The Third and last Myanmar Empire was founded by king Alaungpaya after the Mon rebellion. Three wars with the British-triggered by Myanmar's resistance to Britain's commercial and territorial ambitions-led to the kingdom's collapse. The first war was fought from 1824 to 1826, the second in 1852, and the third in 1885. With these wars, the British gradually annexed the whole country to its empire and named the country Burma.

In 1942, Japan occupied Myanmar. Young Myanmar nationals formed Burma Independence Army with the help of the Japanese and drove the British out of Burma. Through the dislike of the Japanese rule, a group of Myanmar university students, led by General Aung San, formed a league called Anti-Fascist People's Freedom League (AFPFL) to fight the Japanese and they helped Britain and Allied powers regain Burma in 1945 and return to power. Because of the overwhelming role of the AFPFL, which had become a strong political party, and the struggle in various forms by the whole Burmese population against the administration, the British had to give Burma full independence on January 4, 1948.

The new Myanmar (Burmese) government, which was fought by some Communists and various ethnic groups, faced many problems, but the ruling party, AFPFL, won the elections landslide in 1951 and 1956. In 1958, however, there developed a split between the then Prime Minister U Nu's followers and another faction in AFPFL, which pushed the country to the brink of civil war. Upon the request of U Nu, General Ne Win set up an interim military government and restored order. He ruled until elections were held in 1960, in which U Nu's faction won a landslide victory and he regained his premiership. As he could no longer control the political and ethnic disputes, Ne Win seized the government in a bloodless take-over in March 1962 to hold Burma together. General Ne Win and his Revolutionary Council of military leaders, who wanted to transform Burma into a socialist nation, founded the Burma Socialist Programme Party and ruled the country until 1988, when large numbers of Burmese demonstrated against the government and called for an end to one-party rule.

The military had to take over the power since the whole country was in turmoil, and established the State Law and Order Restoration Council and allowed multiparty elections to take place in May 1990. The Council also changed the official name of the country from the Union of Burma to the Union of Myanmar. The Council opened the doors to the world and followed market-oriented economic policy. The military government was reorganized in 1997 and changed its name to the State Peace and Development Council.

The Land & Geography

The land was also known as Suvannabhumi, Golden Land- in ancient times, and today, with its rich natural resources and diversity of attractions, it still deserves to be called the Golden Land.

With a land area of 676, 577 sq.km., Myanmar is the largest country in the Southeast Asia region, bounded by mountain complex in the north, east and west, and enclosed by the Andamen Sea and the Bay of Bengal in the south, southwest, and west. Myanmar shares borders with Bangladesh, India, China, Laos and Thailand. Situated between latitudes 9. 30’ N and 28. 30’ N and between longitudes 92. 10’ E and 101. 10’ E the country stretches 2090 km north to south, and 925 km east to west and has a varied topography which includes islands, extensive rice plains, river valleys and forested hills and mountains.

It has a 2,832 km long coastline on the Indian Ocean. Myanmar's highest mountains, situated in the far north, include Hkakabo Razi, the tallest peak both locally and in the region, which rises 5,881 km above sea level. The two other mountain systems: a group of low mountains called the Rakhine Yoma stands in the west forming a border with the Indian Subcontinent, and the hilly Shan Plateau separates Myanmar from China, Laos and Thailand.

The central lowland region of Myanmar consists of the Ayeyarwaddy (Irrawaddy) and Sittaung river valleys. Ayeyarwaddy is the longest river in the country running for 2,010 km from the northern region to the Bay of Bengal, and serves as the principle transportation route and as the main source of water supply for the central dry zone.

People & Languages

Myanmar has a population of over 47 million with the Bamar, the majority race, making up about 70 percent. The other major national races consist of Kachin, Kayah, Kayin, Chin, Mon, Rakhine and Shan. Myanmar is a union of 135 ethnic groups with their own languages, dialects and culture. The overall population density is about 67 persons per sq km, one of the lowest in East Asia. The population is more than 75 percent rural, with almost half the urban population found in the three largest cities: Yangon (Rangoon), Mandalay and Mawlamyine. Communities of Chinese and Indian Muslim minorities dwell in large towns and cities in peaceful coexistence with the Myanmar nationals.

The official language is Myanmar, which is spoken by virtually all of Myanmar people, including large national races and non-Myanmar ethnic minorities though they have their own languages and dialects spoken only in their communities or in particular regions. English, being the second language, is widely spoken and understood among the educated urban population. Cantonese, Mandarin, Hindustani and Urdu are most common foreign languages spoken among Chinese and Indian immigrants.

Religion & Culture

Myanmar is predominantly a Buddhist country with the Buddhists making up about 80 percent of the population, following the school of Theravada Buddhism. There are also Christians, Muslims, Hindus and some animists. But it respects the freedom of belief and the people practice religious tolerance on other religions which is evident in the existence of religious buildings of different beliefs in large cities. Because the people are deeply pious, there is at least one pagoda or Buddha Image in every town or city, and even in large villages, so is there a Buddhist monastery. Religion plays so vital in a typical Myanmar Buddhist's life that his/her routine cannot be separated from Buddhist rituals. There is also a Buddhist lent on Myanmar calender which lasts for three months in the rainy season, approximately from July to October, during which fasting is preserved, marriages and moving home is usually put off.

Myanmar lies between two great civilizations, India and China, and is largely influenced by that of India, yet Myanmar has developed its own culture with distinctive characteristics. From India came the institutions of religion and government, but without the Indian caste system of social hierarchy. India was also the source of Pali, the sacred language, along with astrology and some kinds of food. For the majority of Myanmar's population, Buddhism is the center of individual life whereas the monastery is the center of the community. That is why, it is little wonder Myanmar culture is synonymous with Buddhist culture. Myanmar people try to live according to the basic five precepts of Buddhism in their daily activities.

The unique thing about Myanmar culture is that it is free from racial or sex discrimination from childbirth throughout the lifetime. Every one is entitled to equal rights, opportunity and treatment whether at work or at court. For much of Myanmar's history, women played a stronger role than in traditional Western societies. From early on they could own property and were independent in economic activities. Myanmar women enjoy the same status with their male counterparts and do not necessarily have to keep their surnames.
------------------------------------------------------
Yangon/Rangoon

Yangon, the capital city of Myanmar, is so evergreen and cool with lush tropical trees, shady parks and beautiful lakes it has earned the name of "The Garden City of the East". Though with the atmosphere of a typical Asian city, It stands out in contrast as it is not yet overwhelmed with the global trends of modernity and is making its own progress at its own pace, in its own calm, civic culture. Being the main entrance to the country and principle seaport, it is the hub of business activities and government offices as well as non-governmental organizations. It also serves as the center for higher learning as it abounds with educational institutions. The city represents a mixture of diverse communities and cultures, with respect to people, religion, business, and settlement. Yangon was founded by King Alaungpaya on the site of a small town called Dagon when he conquered lower Myanmar in 1755. He changed its name to Yangon, which means "End of Strife", but was anglicized as Rangoon by the British when they annexed Myanmar in 1885. The present day Yangon covers an area of 350 sq. km with a population of over 5 million.
*** Must visit place >> Shwe Dagon Pagoda ***
Walk in downtown in the evening time. Go to Yangon river side before sunset, see the normal people life beside the river how they are living for life.
-------------------------------------------------------
Mandalay

Mandalay, the capital of Myanmar Last Kingdom and of Myanmar Kings, is situated in Central Myanmar 668 km north of Yangon. It was founded by King Mindon in 1857 and remained to be the official seat of Myanmar Kings until it was occupied by the British in 1885 and designated Yangon as capital. It is the largest city after Yangon and is both a bustling commercial center and a repository of rich cultural heritage. With the remains of the old Royal City and many old monasteries, Mandalay is a showcase for Myanmar art and architecture of the 19th century. It is also noted for woodcarvings, silverware, tapestries, silk, and other products of traditional handicraft. It has links to all parts of the country by rail, road, river and air.

** If you have a time try to visit to Moustache Brothers in Mandaly. **
-------------------------------------------------------
Bagan

Bagan, which is known as the city of four million pagodas, is one of the richest archaeological sites in Asia and the main tourist destination in Myanmar. It was also capital of the First Myanmar Empire. This enchanting city is situated on the eastern bank of the Ayeyarwaddy River, about 193 km south of Mandalay. The ruins of Bagan City cover an area of 42 sq. km containing over 2000 edifices. The majority of these well-preserved temples and pagodas offer a rich architectural heritage from the 11th to 13th century era.

*** Sunset and sunrise is wonderfully amazing in Bangan ***
------------------------------------------------------
Inlay Lake

This vast and picturesque lake is situated in the hilly Shan State in the eastern part of Myanmar. With an elevation of 900 meters above sea-level, it is one of the main tourist attractions in Myanmar. The lake, 22 km long and 10 km wide, has a population of some 150,000, many of whom live on floating islands of vegetation. Inlay Lake, natural and unpolluted, is famous for its scenic beauty and the unique leg-rowing of the Inthas, the native lake-dwellers. Moreover, floating villages, colorful daily floating market and Inlay Spa are places worthy of visit. The festival of Phaung-daw-Oo Pagoda in Inlay Lake held during October is full of pageantry and colorful splendor.
------------------------------------------------------
Most beautiful beaches

Ngapali Beach

It is a picture of paradise ..miles of empty white sand beaches lined with tall coconut palms. Resort hotels offer visitors the chance to swim, sail, kayak and feast on lobster and prawn by candlelight as the sun sinks into the Bay of Bengal.

Ngwe Saung Beach

Travelling by boat offers a great opportunity to sit back, relax and observe the pulse of life along the waterways of Myanmar. Cruises float past timber camps with elephants taking baths at sundown, families camped out to pan for gold, grassy banks with picturesque villages, fishermen pulling in the catch of the day with their nets, and jetties where
hawkers sell rice cakes and grilled fish.
------------------------------------------------------
Ayeyarwaday River

One of the great rivers of Asia, the Ayeyarwady is the cultural and economic lifeline of Myanmar. From its headwaters in the Himalaya Mountains, it runs the entire length of the country, passing through thick jungles and towering gorges, and into the very heart of Myanmar’s civilisation, ancient and modern.
------------------------------------------------------
Ecotourism

Ecotourism is commonly defined as nature and culturebased tourism that fosters environmental and cultural understanding, appreciation and conservation, and ensures benefits to the local community. By this definition, ecotourism requires wilderness, something of which Myanmar has no shortage. The country has been identified as one of 25 hotspots of biodiversity, home to an astonishing 1017 species of birds (not including other migratory species), 300 species of mammals, 360 species of reptiles and 1014 species of butterflies. The forests are still home to tigers and wild elephants, as well as leopards, bears, deer and other large mammals.

Currently there are 33 national parks, wildlife sanctuaries and protected areas in the country. Of these, 15 are open to visitors and offer bird watching opportunities, butterfly and orchid tours, and other nature-based activities.Alaungdaw Kathapa National Park in Sagaing Division, Indawgyi Lake Wildlife Sanctuary in Kachin State and Moeyinggyi Wetland Wildlife Sanctuary near Bago have all become firm visitor favourites.

For adventure lovers, Myanmar’s mountains are beginning to open up a whole new range of possibilities. Trekking and hill walking are already well established around Inle Lake, Kalaw and Kengtung in Shan State. Working elephant camps can be visited in teak forests not far from Mandalay and Yangon. The dormant volcano Mt Popa, easily visible from Bagan, makes an enjoyable side trip, while just across the Ayeyarwady River, Natmataung is less than a day’s drive away in southern Chin State. At 10,000 feet, it is the highest mountain in central Myanmar and is a favourite among botanists.

The most spectacular scenery and exciting adventure prospects, however, are reserved for the far north of the country, in the easternmost reaches of the Himalayas. The town of Putao is the starting point for adventure travel to this region. Visitors can trek through national parkland, which is home to some of Myanmar’s most exotic and primitive hill tribes. The region is also the point of origin for the Ayeyarwady River, whose raging headwaters are perfect for commercial rafting expeditions offered by a local resort lodge. Mountain biking and elephant trekking can also be arranged. Long trekking expeditions can be taken to 5889-metre Mt Khakabarazi, Southeast Asia’s tallest peak. On the slopes of the mountain, subtropical rainforests give way to temperate cloud forests, Eastern Himalayan fir trees and finally subalpine tundra, all in the space of a few miles.

Northern Myanmar is also home to the Hukaung Valley Tiger Reserve, the crowning achievement of the country’s park system. Designated in 2003 and 21,890 square kilometres in size, it is the world’s biggest protected area for tigers. Although seemingly remote, it has great prospects for the development of ecotourism as it can be reached by flight from Yangon to Myitkyina, followed by a three-hour car ride to the town of Tanai in the heart of the valley. From there elephants can be hired to access the remote corners of the reserve.

Mergui/Myeik Archipelago

Attention has also been turning to Myanmar’s rich and varied coastline, which stretches for more than 1000 miles from the Bay of Bengal to the Andaman Sea. Apart from the established palm-fringed beaches of Ngapali,Ngwe Saung and Chaungtha, the Myeik Archipelago in Myanmar’s far south is just starting to open up its enormous potential for scuba diving, game fishing, kayaking and island hopping. A continuation of the islands near Phuket in Thailand, the islands of the Myeik Archipelago are characterised by beautiful outcrops of thick tropical rainforest and white coral beaches. Cut off from the mainland and human contact for thousands of years, they have developed their own unique ecosystems. One of the largest, Lampi Island, was designated as Myanmar’s first marine park.
-----------------------------------------------------
People

With more than 130 national groups, Myanmar has a wealth of different cultures. Most groups live in the mountains surrounding the central plains, many in villages reached by hours of walking through jungles and deep valleys.
