anwrahta CRUISE FROM VIETNAM heritage line Myanmar

The Anawrahta set to cruise the Ayeyarwady and Chindwin Rivers in Myanmar starting September 2015. With one crew member per passenger, the Anawrahta enjoys the highest crew-to-passenger ratio and largest cabin floor space on the Ayeyarwady. 
The luxury river cruiser “Anawrahta”, owned by Heritage Line, left Ho Chi Minh City aboard the heavy lift vessel, Rolldock Storm, bound for a 5-day journey to Myanmar where it will ply the Ayeyarwady and Chindwin Rivers beginning mid-September 2015. “Myanmar is a very hot destination with a lot of potential because it’s practically untouched by the commercial world,” said Maarten Perdok, Managing Director of Heritage Line Co., Ltd., of the country that has been named “Destination of the Year” by Travel + Leisure magazine. “The Ayeyarwady is a stunning river to cruise and explore. In fact, river cruising is one of the best ways to discover a country and its culture. You get to see the country from a different angle and go to places other tourists don't because there are simply no roads going to those places. This is especially true in Myanmar where infrastructure is lacking, making cruising one of the best, if not the best way to travel the country.”

 Built entirely in Vietnam over 14 months, the 23-cabin luxury vessel has an aluminum superstructure on top of a steel hull. “Because of the low water levels in Myanmar, we used a lot of lightweight materials for this cruiser which are typically not used,” said Technical Director Stefan Malin. “We took advantage of the experience we had from building two other ships, bringing together the right contractors and the right materials to build a very high-quality vessel.” “We wanted to reach a low draft of just one meter, so that we could stay ahead of the competition and cruise further out, and stay longer in areas with very low water levels,” added Perdok. “We can go to remote places on the Ayeyarwady where no one else can go, offering guests a very unique experience all year round. I’m happy to say that we succeeded in reaching this very low draft.” The Anawrahta will sail on four different itineraries ranging from 4 to 11 nights, visiting ports including Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay and Homalin. The longest itinerary is the 901-mile, 12 day / 11 night journey from Mandalay to Homalin on the Chidwin River and ending in Bagan on the Ayeyarwady River, with excursions to textile and silversmithing workshops, temples and convents and teak forests with working elephants, amongst others. Guests on the four-deck Anawrahta can expect a five-star experience, including the highest crew-to-passenger ratio (46 crew serving 46 passengers) and the largest cabins on the Ayeyarwady River all with private balcony, luxury amenities, world class cuisine and unique excursions as well as daily onboard lectures and entertainment.

 “You're very close to life on the river which is quite unique,” said Perdok. “But then you have your floating hotel, luxury that’s always on standby. During the day guests go off on excursions but in no time are back to their cabin, their comfort zone, with a chilled glass of wine waiting for them.” Named after King Anawrahta, the 11th century founder of the Burmese nation, Anawrahta is modeled after a turn of the century vintage steamer and mixes Burmese motifs and British colonial-style décor. In addition to 23 spacious cabins, it features a bar, lounge, restaurant, spa, gym and Jacuzzi pool. It joins the five other unique Heritage Line ships in Halong Bay, Vietnam and on the Mekong River between Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and Siem Reap (Angkor Wat), Cambodia

From here we realized some differences .
Here, Both men and woman wear long skirt, men wear long skirt called longyi

Woman wear shayi.


Men everywhere chew betel


You won’t be surprised there are a lot of betel nut stalls


Going on roads, taxi drivers stop suddenly to throw the red spittle firing from his mouth and hitting the pavement.

 Thanaka is used usually at all ages from kids to the old people ,both men and woman


 In Yangon main transports are cars and bus , no motorbikes



Special habits of local people here drinking tea with tea leaf salad which this is not delicious with us





We are really surprised why lots of birds and dove here even in center of Yangon




 Myanmar may be it’s land of birds and pagodas. The government maybe invest money in padoda.It’s the reason why pagodas here is big sand really beautiful


The Shwedagon Pagoda is one of the most famous pagodas in the world and it is certainly the main attraction of Yangon


Luckily we come to this pagoda in lighting candles festival


 Much more things to say about Myanmar That’s just all my first impression arriving Yangon

Asia destination cambodia China Indonesia Japan laos Myanmar Philippine Singapore solo travelers South Korea Thailand travelling female Vietnam

Female solo traveling is a chance to reconnect with ones’ inner self, to discover hidden abilities that only surface in the midst of the unfamiliar, and to push personal limits further. A solo travel escapade in Asia could be a woman’s first stop continent. Its colorful mix of culture and history enriches a woman’s quest for that indescribable liberty. From its colorful culture and breathtaking temples to its luscious cuisines, Asia surely has a cornucopia of treats to offer to female solo travelers.
Are you an independent chick who plans on going on an epic solo adventure in Asia?  Here are twelve of the best Asian destinations perfect for female solo travelers.

 

Top 12 Asian Destinations For Female Solo Travelers
1.Cambodia

Lara Croft, the spunky heroine in the box office hit Tomb Raider, has helped uplift the spirits of women adventurers as well as accentuate the already famous beauty of Angkor Wat, Cambodia. Aside from channeling their inner Lara Croft, female solo travelers have listed Cambodia in their bucket lists to witness its abundance in history and culture.
This relatively small country definitely has a lot to offer. Dipping in the waters of Sihanoukville beach, exploring the Angkor Thom Great Wall on a traditional Angkor Gondola boat, attending Khmer food cooking classes, and learning Cambodian meditation are just a very few of what female solo travelers can do in the country that was once called the Khmer Empire.
2. Thailand

No backpacker drops Thailand in their Asian explorations, as this nation banks so much on their tourism. Like other neighboring Southeast Asian countries, Thailand is also adorned with incredibly beautiful white sand beaches, valiant mountains, tropical climate, and flavorful cuisine.
We could go on and on in enumerating the places to see and things to do in Thailand, but our top picks for female solo travelers include: exploring the golden palaces and floating markets of Bangkok, shop till you drop in the Night Bazaar of Chiang Mai, hit the beaches in Phuket, and immersing in a cultural experience in Chiang Rai.
3.Vietnam

If you want to learn the cultural inspiration of the ever famous musical Miss Saigon, then test your history in Vietnam. Known for its beaches, rivers, and impeccable Buddhist pagodas, Vietnam pulls your heartstring with their magnificent natural treasures and rich heritage.

If you want to revisit Vietnam’s history through its famous sites, you would instantly notice the unique variety of pre and post colonial architectural designs. Don’t miss to lay your eyes on the beauty of the ancient Po Nagar Cham Towers. You can also see hints of France through the Hanoi Opera House and Café de la Poste. Complete your list by visiting the Halong Bay and test your bargaining skills in their affordable markets.
4. Malaysia

When traveling in Malaysia, you can choose between the three distinctive tourism palettes: island discovery, city escapades, nature loving, cultural experiences—anything just to fit everybody’s interests and personalities.
But for female solo travelers who want to try them all, here are my recommendations. For your island and beach discoveries, you may want to soak up the sun in the islands of Sipadan, Pulau Redang, or Tioman. Kuala Lumpur’s Petronas Tower is your top choice for your city escapades. Breathe in nature’s gift in Gunung Mulu National Park, Batu Caves, or Cameron Highlands. Grab the chance to experience Malaysia’s culture through the Sarawak Cultural Village and many more!
5.Japan

If you are willing to splurge for an Asian trip, then book a ticket to Japan right away! Great things in Japan may come with a price tag, but it sure is more than what it’s worth. The land of the rising sun also just happens to be the land of the best cherry blossoms, anime, unimaginably high technology, and countless historical temples.

To explore the modernity of Japan, Tokyo is your best bet where you can unleash the kid in you in Disneyland, or look over the expanse of the city in Tokyo Skytree, or shop at Ginza. Osaka and Kyoto are a must-see too as both possess the urbanity of Tokyo infused with Japan’s old soul. Try Kyoto’s shrine of Fushimi Inari-taisha and the historic site of Arashiyama. To cap your wanderings, visit the Osaka castle.
6. Laos

As a woman traveling solo, sometimes you just want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the corporate food chain or the stress from work. If you are searching for zen with cultural integration, then Laos is the place to be.
You may want to observe the country’s most popular monastery which was built in the 1500s—Wat Xieng Tong. You can also get a fair share of adventure in the eco-friendly Bokeo Nature Reserve Wilderness. Trekking and hiking which is a way of community immersion can also be enjoyed in either Phongsali or Luang Prabang.
7. Myanmar

Clad in the beauty of its yesteryears, Myanmar—also known as Burma—is the best place to experience a non-commercialized culture. Although it seems pretty isolated since it can only be accessed through planes, female solo travelers can use this as an advantage to gain a more personal adventure.

No one should miss the photogenic and breathtaking ancient cities of Bagan and Mrauk-U. And sside from sightseeing, you can also swim in the premier beach of Ngapali, explore the maze of Bogyoke Aung San market, or trek and meet locals in the hill town of Kalaw.

8. China

It is impossible for anyone to miss one of the world’s biggest and most populous countries in their bucket list—the outerspace can’t even help but notice its mark on the globe. The expanse of the dragon kingdom of China is so big it is so hard to choose where to start.
But as any travel guide books would recommend, it is essential to visit its famous sites like The Forbidden City, Great Wall, and the Temple of Heaven. Complete your China escapade by cruising the Yangtze river, marvel at the Yuanyang Rice Terraces, or traverse Mt. Huangshan.
9.South Korea

The land of “Gangnam Style” and KPop has more to offer than their hugely followed entertainment industry. Behind the glitz and glam of the billion-time viewed music videos, lies a deeply rooted culture and inculcated history.
Historical sites like Gyeongbokgung and Jongmyo are good starters, but you might also want to explore the city hubs of Seoul and Busan. Spend your afternoon for a good bargain at the timeless market of Gwangjang. Travel the gastronomic journey of Korea through its Night Food Tour. Lastly, cap the trip with a whole new level adventure in Jeju island.
10.Indonesia
A sprawl of beautiful islands across the Southeast Asian region, Indonesia’s countless volcanic islands translate to its unique and countless tourism treasures, making it an irresistible destination for female solo travelers.
Relish the breathtaking view of Arjuna-Welirang volcanoes, observe the solemnity of Java’s mysterious temple Candi Sukuh, or gasp in awe at the boat houses of Tana Toraja. But, if you want to get a natural tan at their world class beaches, then stop by Bali.
11. Singapore

Singapore is a melting pot of several Asian cultures—Chinese, Malay, Indians, even Philippines. So if you want to just choose one among all Asian countries, Singapore is your great go-to.
Female solo travelers can be assured of almost a hundred percent safety in this country because the crime rate is just incredibly low. You can easily navigate from its shopping hub in Orchard, to the majestic man-made creation of Marina Bay Sands; to the cultural districts of Little Arab, Little India, and Chinatown.
12. Philippine

Another magnificent archipelago in Southeast Asia, Philippines can win any tourists hearts because of its incredibly hospitable and optimistic people.
Of course, there are plenty of awesome things female solo travelers can do in the Philippines. Surf in Siargao, dive in the Tubbataha Reef, marvel at the sight of the Chocolate Hills in Bohol, or walk through time along the historic streets of Vigan. A travel guide could not even cover the massive amount of adventures you can have.

With its incredibly diverse culture, surreal scenery and wealth in attractions, female solo traveler can surely experience more than what they expect in Asia.
Before you embark on a solo adventure across Asia, make sure to plan your trip with Touching Indochina. It’s free and easy to use!

cambodia Cu Chi tunnel destination detox laos Malaysia mekong Delta Myanmar Phu Quoc island Sand dunes sapa Singapore Southeast asia Thailand Vietnam

If the flocks of postgrad travelers in elephant print pants haven't told you already, Southeast Asia is having what we like to call "a moment."
And just because it definitely has its share of over-touristed sites, don't let the region fool you: there are some seriously stunning spots that are perfect for your next digital detox.
Want to know which authentic places backpackers really get amped about?
1. Pai, Thailand
If you uprooted the hippie neighborhoods of San Francisco and plopped them into the jungles of northern Thailand, you'd (roughly) end up with Pai. Ride your motorbike a few hours into this mountain town for a chillaxing weekend of zenning out at Rasta bars, napping in woven hammocks, and -- if you can manage to leave your field hut -- exploring the waterfalls and hot springs.

2. Phu Quoc Island, Vietnam
Almost everybody agrees that Phu Quoc is about to become Vietnam's next hot destination, but thankfully the perfect beaches are still mostly empty. You can rent a motorbike (no license needed, no questions asked) and zip up, down, and around the red dirt roads of this island paradise. Then, take a snorkeling or scuba dip. Hurry up, before other people discover the secret.

3. Bagan, Myanmar

Temples seem to pop out of nowhere in Bagan, which has the highest concentration of Buddhist ruins the world. A hot air balloon ride over the temples during the quiet dawn or sunset hours is an absolute must.

4. Mui Ne Sand Dunes, Vietnam

They're not far from Saigon, but these sand dunes seem like they belong on another continent entirely. You can sled, bike, or just freely frolic down both white and red mountains of bliss. Be sure to find the Fairy Stream, a magical river with a soft, sandy bottom that flows between dry rocks.

5. Mergui Archipelago, Myanmar

This is a pristine chain of hundreds of tropical rainforest islands in the Andaman Sea. Check in at one of the two hotels and kayak or sail the uncharted blue waters, where you might run into sea gypsies who, for part of the year, live on boats while they dive for pearls

6. Cameron Highlands, Malaysia
This is one of Southeast Asia's most popular hill stations, holiday towns at the base of lush, low mountains. Travelers agree the Cameron Highlands are a perfect escape when you're too hot to withstand another day of astronomically-sizzling Malaysian temperatures. You can tour one of several authentic tea factories before cozying up to a mug overlooking the rolling green hills

7. Ngwe Saung Beach, Myanmar

Weary travelers looking to literally escape it all should head to Ngwe Saung, an astonishing NINE MILES of beach that just recently opened to the public. It's unspoiled, uncrowded, and some of the best scenery you'll see in Myanmar.

8. The Mekong Delta, Vietnam

The Mekong River creates a rich marshland responsible for the bulk of Vietnam's rice crops. There are oodles of tiny villages and floating markets to visit, with kindly locals who will gladly let you sample their fruit or teach you to birdwatch. Avoid feeling like a yuppie in a tour boat by biking the Delta-- that way, you can see the impressive rice paddies and stop off at destinations on your own.

9. Sapa, Vietnam

There's nowhere on Earth like Sapa: tiers on tiers of bright-green rice fields are dotted with the colorful clothes of hill-tribe dwellers and roofs of French colonial villas. Sometimes the view gets clouded by a warm, jungle-y mist, but it only makes your day of hiking even prettier

10. The Marina Bay Sands, Singapore

This $5.7 billion hotel -- which also boasts shopping, a dinosaur museum, and a concert hall -- has a yacht-shaped infinity pool teetering on the 57th floor. When you take a swim, it feels like you're about to spill over the edge and onto glittering Singapore beneath you.

11. The White Temple in Chiang Rai, Thailand

It may look ancient, but the White Temple (technically named Wat Rong Khun) was actually designed by a Thai artist in the 1990s, and it's still a work in progress. A tangle of gnarled statues and outstretched hands -- symbolizing the cycle of rebirth -- lead you into the temple, where you'll find intricate (although haunting) murals of Keanu Reeves and planes hitting the Twin Towers.

12. Luang Prabang, Laos

UNESCO named Luang Prabang a World Heritage Site, partly for its architecture that fuses Asian and European styles together. As in much of Asia, elephant tourism is huge here. But not many places have four-day mahout courses where you can learn to expertly (and humanely) ride elephants as their keepers do.

13. Kep, Cambodia

This seaside village was a hip getaway for wealthy Frenchies in the early 1900s, and it's about to tip over into another big tourist boom. For now, though, you can feel like a total local in Kep's tranquil beaches, where cute seafood spots on stilts serve some of the yummiest crab in the world.

14. Mae Sot, Thailand

"Perfectly remote" might be a good way to describe Mae Sot, which teeters right at the border of Thailand and Myanmar. The crowd here is a zesty mix of Burmese, Thai, hill-tribe natives and Westerners making visa runs. Locals hang out at the town's herbal sauna and open-air markets, and visitors get a kick out of adorably furry rescued apes at the Highland Farm Gibbon Sanctuary.

15.Angkowat, Cambodia
This larger-than-life temple complex really is as epic as it looks. The biggest religious monument in the world is surrounded by a wide-open moat-- you'll march down a massive stone causeway to enter a village of temples, life-size stone-carved faces, and giant tree roots that have grown to twist over and around dark, windowed hallways.

16. Inle Lake, Myanmar

This massive, shallow lake is over 13 miles long and a big draw for visitors, as it's inhabited by many local tribes who set up waterside "workshops" for intriguing traditional crafts. Despite the touristy-ness of it all, most agree Inle is unmissable because of its peaceful floating gardens and entire towns hoisted onto stilts.

17. Ko Lanta, Thailand

When backpackers want to visit one of the hundreds of islands off Thailand's coast, they normally head for the "big names" like Ko Tao (known for its scuba diving) or Ko Phangan (home of the famous full moon parties). These islands are pretty and so are the foreigners that visit them, but for a true Thai experience, try the blissfully empty Ko Lanta, where the National Marine Park protects unpolluted oceans that explode with angelfish.
18. Cu Chi Tunnels in Saigon, Vietnam
Viet Cong soldiers used these narrow, claustrophobia-inducing tunnels as hiding places during the Vietnam War. Trap doors in the jungle led down into the underground network, where soldiers suffered from malaria and parasites while guarding food sources. The eeriness is all too real during a modern-day tour.

19. Chiang Dao, Thailand

This forested region is a Disneyland for nature junkies complete with waterfalls, hot springs, and incredible limestone cliffs. The biggest attractions of all are the Chiang Dao Caves, which consist of about 100 caverns that extend as far as 40,000 feet into the mountains. You can enter five of the caves alone or with a guide to explore narrow rocky hallways, hanging stalactites and hidden Buddha statues.
