This blog shows info, pics and videos from 2 trips made to Myanmar in 2012.
The first trip was 6 days in February 2012 and covered exploring Yangon and the Irrawaddy Delta.
The second trip was 15 days in May 2012 and covered exploring Inle Lake, Mandalay and Bagan.
A day after the tour on the Inle Lake I left Nyaung Shwe early in the morning to take a train to Thazi, by schedule this would be a 10 hour trip but reality was that it left a lot later as planned and took almost 12 hours !
But the trip was worth it as there was a nice view and decent seats in the train.
See some impressions in the videos below.
