For many photographers, Asia is a big
attraction and Myanmar is amongst the most desirable destination for
certain reasons. From iconic Shwedagon pagoda to the unique Inle Lake,
sprawling cities to diverse wildlife – the country boasts endless
photogenic chances. It is truly a great source of content for a lifetime
photo workshop or photography hosting website such as https://www.pixcellence.co.uk/
Mr. Win, a dedicated photo tour guide reveals some of the best places to shoot
in Myanmar :
Bagan
There is no doubt that Bagan inspires all video makers and photographer thanks
to its mesmerizing beauty. Over 2200
temples poke out the picturesque forest and lust local plantation were built
from 11th century of all sizes. While during the day time, the pagodas exposes
the long history through their faded bricks, walls and spires; sunset offers a
very impressive panorama that you should not miss .
Bagan is also a great place to enjoy a balloon ride where you capture the
sunrise like nowhere else in the world.
Ubein bridge
Located in Inwa ancient capital, Ubein is known as the longest teakwood bridge
in the world. It is one of the best places to shoot the sundowner as it is very
clear and very emotional when the sun sets through the bridge spans.
Do not miss the poitraits of local fishermen who row the boat manually on
Taungthaman lake. Some Mandalay Tour
Operator offers over lake shooting.
Chin state
It may come to surprise many people when we mention about this magical land but
it is very worth. Chin state is home to the unique tattooed face hill tribes
and many treasury landscapes combining mountains and fascinating hamlet in
style.
There is no better opportunity to see the remote markets, unspoiled nature with
many wild animals like deer, grand lizard…
Inle Lake
Your photography journey to Myanmar is incomplete without visiting Inle Lake.
The floating garden is something special and the must see of Inle also includes
the extraordinary one leg rowing fisherman, over water villages and traditional
works of rolling cigar, lotus silk fabric.
Another reason that Inle entices photographer is the people. The lake houses
different ethnic minorities and the Palaung, a long neck hill tribe is so
special that you may spend even an hours to have their vivid photos.
Mrauk U
In our opinion, Mrauk U is simply a
magnet photo site where you can explore the extraordinary culture of Arakan
kingdom and get the best of Burmese rural life.
We recommend all travelers to adventure along the Kaladan river, watching the
royal palace or monks in a secluded monastery collecting alms in the afternoon.
The very rewarded experience should be the sunrise when the cloud covers all
the mountains and temple’s spires.
Since Mrauk U is one of the biggest archeological sites, it is no difficult to
find the inspiration for some ideas of how to travel back to the past.
