History

The earliest civilisations in the area that is now Myanmar were established before the Christian era. The Rakhaing Kingdom of the Bay of Bengal coast is thought to have been established in the 4th Century BC and was known to the ancient Greeks. The Pyu, forerunners of the Bamar, established Kingdoms on the Ayeyarwady plains in the 3rd Century BC. The land that became Myanmar was a key trade link between China, India and beyond.

Bamar (Burmese) history really begins with the founding of the great city of Bagan in 849AD. The first Burmese empire, the golden period of Bamar history started in 1044 when King Anawrahta came to the throne. He was converted to Theravada Buddhism by a monk from the Mon Kingdom, which had colonised the southern lands around present day Yangon. In 1057 the Bamar defeated the Mon and Bagan went on to become the wealthy and influential capital of most of present-day Myanmar.

After the fall of Bagan, the country was split into 3 main kingdoms. The Rakhaing still controlled their lands in the west. The Mon re-established themselves and founded a Kingdom at present day Bago and in 1364, the Shan established the Kingdom of Inwa, near present-day Mandalay. In 1550, King Bayinnanung came to the throne, reunified the country and defeated the Siamese (Thai) at Ayuthaya. This period is known as the second Myanmar Empire.

The third Myanmar Empire, or Konbaung Dynasty began in 1752 under King Alaungpaya. During the years that followed the Rakhaing Kingdom was brought under Bamar control and the Siamese were again defeated. In 1824 the British Empire took control of Rakhaing and the far south of Myanmar, and in 1853 took Yangon, which they renamed Rangoon. In 1885 the British defeated the last King, Thibaw, and all Burma became part of the British Empire.

Burma gained its independence on the 4th January, 1948. For many years the country was all-but closed to outsiders, a situation that continued until the early 1990s. During the 1990s the government changed many of the countries place names back to their pre-colonial names, and in 2005 a new capital was established at Nay Pyi Taw (‘Royal Capital’).

People

The government of Myanmar recognises more than 100 ‘national races’, the term used to describe the different ethnic groups, tribes and cultures that make up the population. The most numerous group is the Bamar (Burmese), who comprise around 65% of the population. The largest minority group are the Shan, who make up around 9% of the population and are related to, and speak a similar language to the Thai. Other large minorities include the Kachin, Chin, Kayah, Kayin (Karen), Mon and Rakhaing. The culturally-rich people of Myanmar are renowned for their friendliness and hospitality – The people themselves are the highlight of a visit to Myanmar.

Top

Religion

Some 89% of Myanmar citizens practise Theravada Buddhism. About 4% of the population are Christian and a further 4% are Muslim. Most Christians and Muslims are either of ethnic Indian descent, or from the Kayin, Kachin and Chin national races. The remaining 3% of the population are mainly Hindu or Animist.

Top

Language

There are some 107 languages and dialects spoken in Myanmar. The national language is Myanmar (Bamar), which belongs to the Tibeto-Burman language group and is spoken or understood by about 90% of the population. English is not widely spoken except in areas frequented by foreign tourists and businesspeople such as airports, hotels and tourist sites. Mr Myanmar Travel can provide professional English-speaking guides, and guides fluent in other languages on request. We can also provide English-speaking drivers for driving tours of Myanmar.

Business Hours

Government offices and Post Offices open Monday to Friday, 09:30 until 16:30. Private business offices may open for slightly longer hours and open on Saturday mornings. Small shops and supermarkets often open 7 days a week from 09.00 or 10.00 until as late as 21.00. Shops in quiet small towns may keep shorter hours and larger businesses are usually closed on weekends.

Teashops and restaurants keep highly variable hours. Many teashops open at dawn for commuters and market shoppers, and close in the afternoon or early evening. Other teashops may only open in the shade of late afternoon and may stay open as late as midnight. Local restaurants serving breakfasts such as Mohinga open early but many restaurants specialise in serving lunch. These open later and are typically closed by 19.00 or 20.00. Restaurants aimed at the tourist trade may close later, at around 21.00. Bars and ‘Beer Stations’ are usually closed by 22.30.

Top

Time

Myanmar Standard Time (MST) is GMT/UTC + 6.30.
Therefore 12.00 noon in Yangon is 05.30 in London, 11.00 in India and 12.30 in Bangkok.

Safety and Security.

Myanmar is an extremely safe country for foreign visitors. There is almost no street crime and there are no ‘no go’ areas to be aware of. Pavements (sidewalks) are often in poor condition so mind your step when out walking. It is a good idea to carry a torch (flashlight) at night as there may be inadequate street lighting. Theft from hotels is very rare but it is a wise precaution to use room, or hotel safes where provided. Please ensure you have an adequate travel insurance policy to cover your trip.

Top

Passport and Visa

Visitors must have a valid passport and visa to enter Myanmar. Your passport must be valid for at least six months after your planned departure from Myanmar. Visas cannot be arranged on arrival in Myanmar, they must be arranged in advance of travel. There are two ways of obtaining a visa.

• From a Myanmar embassy or consulate overseas. We generally advise that you obtain your visa from the Myanmar embassy in your home country where possible.

• Mr Myanmar Travel may be able to arrange a VOA (Visa on Arrival) for you in conjunction with booked travel arrangements. Please note that we need to start the application process at least 3 weeks before your planned arrival date in Myanmar. If you are interested in this service please ask us for further details.

Travel Insurance

Mr Myanmar Travel requires as a condition of booking that you arrange comprehensive travel insurance to cover you during your stay in Myanmar. Mr Myanmar Travel does not organise travel insurance for you. Whilst Mr Myanmar Travel and its agents and suppliers will try and assist you in the event of an emergency, we cannot take the place of a travel insurance company, offer similar services or pay any bills on your behalf.

Top

Food and Drink

One of the great delights of travelling in Myanmar is sampling the local cuisine. A typical meal as served in a local home or rice shop would consist of a plate of T’amin (rice), the basis of most meals along with a curry or two (usually not spicy), soup (often sour) accompanied by a plate of raw and / or blanched vegetables and various condiments. One of our favourite restaurants in Bagan boasts a table of more than 20 different curries and condiments from which to choose. Some of our favourite dishes include:

Shan Noodles – often topped with chicken.
Butterfish Curry – made with a local freshwater fish.
Lahpet – Pickled tealeaves served with fried nuts and beans.
Kachin Fish – steamed in herbs.
And Mr Myanmar’s personal favourite, Mohinga, which I would happily eat three times a day!

Chinese and Indian cuisine is also easy to find in Myanmar and quality western food can be obtained in most main towns and resorts. There are also high quality Korean and Japanese restaurants in Yangon. Vegetarian dishes appear on most menus so keeping to a meat-free diet should not present any problems. Food is generally cheap when bought from local restaurants - a full meal would cost only 1,500 – 4,000 kyats.

Teashops are a Myanmar institution; they seem to be everywhere! Tea is served milky, hot and sweet and chased with glasses of Chinese-style weak green tea. Teashops are also a great place to snack and meet local people. In Yangon, bakeries are the latest craze. Our favourite chain, Ice Berry makes some of the tastiest doughnuts we’ve tried anywhere – for only 300 Kyat. Some bakeries double as restaurants, even bars and are the standard place for young Myanmar men to take their girlfriends on a date.

Locally produced Myanmar Beer has won 13 international gold medals in recent years and is acclaimed as one of the best beers in Asia. A glass of draught beer in a local bar costs only around 500 Kyat. Myanmar produces its own wine from vineyards in Shan State and the Strawberry wine is also worth seeking out. High quality coffee is now available in Myanmar though teashops generally serve instant. Brand name soft drinks such as Coca Cola are available in main towns and locally produced carbonated drinks are cheap and available everywhere

Top

Health

Mr Myanmar Travel recommends that travellers follow the usual health precautions common to all tropical countries. Drink, and brush your teeth with bottled water. Ice available from higher standard hotels is usually made with boiled water and is safe but we recommend avoiding the ice supplied by some street side restaurants. Avoid eating raw vegetables and fruit that you cannot cut or peel yourself.

Take precautions against the strong tropical sun. We recommend using a high factor sunscreen and perhaps wearing a hat. We recommend that you bring sunscreen with you as high quality products may not be available locally. Many local women carry an umbrella to provide shade from the midday sun. Guard against insect bites by covering your legs in the evening and using insect repellent.

If you are taking prescription medication you should bring an adequate supply with you to last your trip as you may not be able to buy the same medication locally. If you are travelling to a malarial area you should commence your course of anti-malarial tablets before you arrive. A yellow certificate will only be requested if you arriving from an infected country.

Should you fall ill in Myanmar we recommend that you contact your travel insurance company immediately for assistance. The most recommended health clinic in Myanmar is the International SOS Clinic at the Inya Lake Hotel, Yangon; telephone number: (01) 667 879.

Top

Post and Communications

The postal service in Myanmar can be unreliable, so we do not recommend posting anything of value. If you wish to buy an item in Myanmar that requires shipping to your home country, we would suggest that you make your purchase with a well-known and reliable company and ask them to arrange shipping for you. The telephone service in Myanmar is not of a high standard. Whilst local calls are reasonably priced, international calls can be expensive. International calls can be made from IDD phones at hotels and telephone offices and payment will be requested in US Dollars. International roaming is not possible in Myanmar. Pre-paid SIM cards are available to purchase in some hotels and supermarkets (starting from US$20) but may not work in foreign-registered mobile phones. To call Myanmar from overseas, the international country code is (95).

Internet cafes are common in Yangon and are becoming increasingly common elsewhere, and prices are very reasonable. Internet services are also commonly available at hotels. The internet connection is usually slower than in most developed countries. Gmail is the most commonly used email service; Gaining access to Hotmail, Yahoo and Facebook accounts can sometimes be difficult. Most internet cafes can help you make overseas phone calls via services such as Skype, Gtalk and Pfingo at reasonable prices.

Top

Tipping and Donations

Tipping is not customary in Myanmar however tourism has introduced this concept to the country. Airport porters will expect a tip and in hotels, staff such as bellboys and waiters may be used to being tipped by foreign visitors. Your tour guide and driver may also be accustomed to receiving a tip when they bid you farewell. Myanmar does however, have a concept known as ‘tea money’. If somebody offers, for instance, to guide you through a market, or find the key-holder at a remote temple, they may be hoping for a little tea money for their service. Mr Myanmar Travel suggests that you keep some small denomination Kyat notes (K200, K500) to offer in these situations.

Donations may be requested at some Pagodas and other sites. It is your choice to make a donation or not. Local Myanmar people tend to be as generous as their finances allow when making donations to Pagodas and Monasteries.

Top

Photography

Myanmar is a wonderfully photogenic country. Dawn is one of the best times of day to take pictures, before the bright sun is high in the sky. This is also a country of beautiful sunsets; the pagodas of Bagan, U Bein Bridge at Amarapura, the breathtaking Shwedagon and all the West-facing beaches boast gorgeous sunset views. Mr Myanmar Travel ends its day-tours, where possible at sunset-view locations.

The people of Myanmar are usually very happy to be photographed but we suggest that you ask for permission first. You should avoid photographing military installations, soldiers and bridges. Colour print film is available in the country but there may be limited choice. We suggest that you bring your own memory cards with you. Internet cafes can burn photos onto a CD for a very reasonable charge. Tourism is an established industry in Myanmar so there should be no problems taking a camera with you into the country. If you have a large amount of photography equipment with you on arrival you may be asked to declare it and you may be asked questions regarding the purpose of your visit.

Top

Entrance Fees

Many famous, and some not so famous pagodas, museums, attractions and historical sites levy a reasonable entrance fee. Ticket prices may be listed and payable in either Myanmar Kyat or US Dollars and should be paid on arrival. As change is sometimes not available we would recommend you bring small denomination bills with you in order to be able to pay the exact charge. Children under 11 or 12 years of age may have the fee waived in some locations. In a few locations a small camera fee may also be payable. To ensure the flexibility of excursions, Mr Myanmar Travel will not usually include the cost of entrance fees in quoted tour prices. Where entrance of zone fees are included, these will be be clearly itemised on your itinerary. As far as we are aware the fees listed here are correct but they are of course subject to change without notice.

Shopping

Myanmar is not a country of huge shopping malls and designer outlets. It is, however, an excellent place to shop for high-quality handicrafts. Lacquer ware is probably the most popular purchase; the highest quality products are made in Bagan and near Monywa. The best quality items take months to make and may have 7 to 15 layers of lacquer and several colours.
The greatest variety of tapestries can be found in Mandalay where they are made. Items with overlapping lines of sequins are a sign of quality. Another very popular purchase is traditional puppets. Myanmar puppets are very beautiful and distinctive – an authentic reminder of your visit. Other popular purchases include colourful parasols, paintings and longyis – the skirt-like garments worn by most Myanmar people. Another very authentic reminder of your visit is Thanakha, the facial paste worn by Myanmar women. It’s good for the skin and can be bought pre-prepared in small tubs.

Many visitors also buy gems and jewellery made from locally-mined precious stones, and antiques. We recommend that you purchase such items from well-known outlets and obtain the receipt and export permit required to take them out of the country. A good one-stop-shop for souvenirs is Bogyoke Aung San Market (Also known as Scott Market) in Yangon. Remember to bargain!
