Old Bagan Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

A year in the making..... I got the shot I wanted after a lot of research, 17’000kms and a week of travel, a very early morning, a sketchy, sandy motorbike ride and a little bit of blind luck in the form of a local kid who pointed me in the right direction. These are the Balloons over Bagan, Myanmar. #Adventure #adventurephotocontest

What a great holiday we are having.
Decorative carts for hire, though I suspect they look better than they ride. I think I'd recommend a bike or moped instead.
Dramatic lighting on Thatbyinnyu adds ambiance to an evening in Bagan.

8.2/10 Very Good! (95 reviews)
Great location in old Bagan. Spacious room and a riverside restaurant with spectacular sunset view! The room is very spacious. But the bathroom needs to be repaired. The towels are worn and frayed. It was very cold during the night (end Dec)
