Myanmar is a conflicting destination for
travellers; despite of the reasons not to go – and there
are plenty – the country’s allure is quite powerful.
Take Bagan, for instance, where the sun sets

Those yearning to visit Myanmar should do a bit of research.
By maximizing the travel dollars that reach the local population,
you ensure a trip that is not only enjoyable, but also conscionable.
