Nyaungshwe Hotels - Reviews and Rates

6 jours dont 1 jour en bateau, 1 jour en velo, 2 jours a marcher dans la montagne et 2 jours a rien faire, impeccable. Super endroit

After a good nights sleep it was up at 7.00 for breakfast with a ubiquitous banana pancake. Nyangshwe is one of the few hardcore backpacker hangouts in Burma where the aforementioned breakfast item reigns supreme. Although my boatman was due at 8.30 I had to try and cancel my existing return flight with Air Bagan on Thursday and get another flig...

HE SAID: The main thing to do on the lake is to hire a boat for the day and visit different areas around the lake.

A 22km lake of unbelievably clear water and bounded on two sides by ridges of mountains within walking distance, and with far more comfort...

Just a quick wrap-up on my second visit to Nyaungshwe. For the most part, Karen and I were unrelentingly lazy. Once she had recovered her appetite, we spent a fair amount of time at the Golden Kite, sampling their pizzas (try the bolognese, you'll love it), but nothing much more strenuous than that. We did get out on the lake for a morning, afte...
