Delta
This little known region worth visiting. We organize from Yangon by private car but also from Pathein, the capital of Delta by private boat to the discovery of a multitude of small villages and market life of the region. Our boat Yeon Nady was found in this area and it took us hours of navigation for the return to Yangon. It was after this trip that we discovered this region.
Introduction
Traveled tributaries and canals, extending Bengal from golf to mountain range of Bago Yoma, one can imagine the number of hours by boat we can carry on this territory are still millions of hectares of land cultivated and made the region one of Myanmar’s rice granaries. Due to the very flatness of the Delta, it is in this area that there are more deaths during the Tsunami in 2004. The small town of Thante is not far from Yangon and is worth a look for its famous pottery, weaving its cotton and its ancient pagoda.
With its 300,000 inhabitants Pathein is the capital of Delta and asks what remains there at least one night. The city is known for the workshops of hand painted umbrellas, animation its banks and its markets. This is the we offer one or more days in the delta. Although it is part of the Mon kingdom, the population of the city is Karen and Rakhine.
It’s Pathein that we can access the new beaches that have nothing to envy of the beaches found in Thailand. Ngwe Saung Beach is called Silver Beach (Silver Beach). The sand is not white but rather white as we like. We find all the hotels ranges (see our hotel section). He should know that to get to this beach from Yangon you will need about 5 hours drive and we recommend a stop in Pathein for one night.
