Most visitors of Myanmar arrive in Yangon although it is possible to take a plane from Chiang Mai
(Thailand) to Mandalay also. Yangon is unlike any other Asian town I have seen so far. Big colonial
buildings covered up with tropical vegetation. Old Christian churches, mosques and buddhist temples.
Traffic has no rules it seems. Roads are wide, there is a lot of green and walking is easy.
Touts will meet you at the airport trying to take you to a hotel of their choice and trying to seduce
you to change money or book a trip. This also can be done near Sule pagoda shown here in early
morning. Sule Pagoda is the real centre of town.
