Now this country is actually an uncovered gold mine of amazing places and sights to visit. Of course if one is interested to go Myanmar backpacking, then there are some places that he definitely cannot miss out on.

Now if one would go to this beautiful country, he definitely cannot miss out on visiting Yangon. Yangon is where the very famous Shwedagon pagoda or simply the golden pagoda, is located. This is one of the biggest and also most beautiful pagodas in the entire South Eastern region known for its enormous size ands its unique gold color.

Another place that backpackers would often fancy is the Kyaiktiyo with the world famous Golden Rock. If one is a little bit adventurous, he can stay in the little town there known as Kinpun town and visit the Golden Rock a day after. There are also a lot of great hiking trails to explore here if one is into hiking and wilderness trekking.

Yet another very beautiful place to visit would be the young and vibrant streets of Mandalay. Definitely in the list of nicest places to visit would be the U Bien Bridge which happens to be one of the most romantic spots that a lot of couples would go to for a visit. Of course one may also check out Mandalay Hill which is the most beautiful viewpoint in the entire country.

Now if one would want to go to a place where a lot of temples reside, then the best place to go to is none other than Bagan. In fact, Bagan is actually home to around a thousand really beautiful temples. To make things even more interesting, one can ride around a horse carriage in order to view some of the temples in the place.

If one would prefer the nature setting, then the place he would most likely want to go to would be Lake Inle. Lake Inle is probably the most peaceful place to visit because the lake itself is very serene and it is surrounded by so many trees. Of course if one would want to go hiking, then he can go from Lake Inle to Kalaw and over to Nyaung Shwe.

If one would want to enjoy a beach scene, then he would most likely want to visit Ngapali Beach. This beach is not like a resort that is full of luxurious hotels and such. It is an untouched beach that is full of huts and trees.
