Myanmar Travel & Tour
Myanmar, a southeast Asian country known under many names, was the land of human origin. It is also recognized by the world as the Golden Land. You have to find out why. Myanmar, officially Union Of Myanmar, formerly called Burma, Burmah, Bermah, Birmanie, Birma, Birmania, Burmese, and so on, is a country lying along the eastern coasts of the Bay of Bengal and the Andaman Sea in southeast Asia.
Myanmar is a slowly developing sector. Although Myanmar possesses great tourist potential and attractions in many fields, much of the industry remains to be developed. Also, the number of visitors to Myanmar are comparatively small compared to her neighbours - even outpaced by Laos. This is primarily due to its current political situation.
Myanmar has been developed mainly by the government, but many private enterprises do exist, catering to a wide range of tourists. Since 1992, the government has encouraged tourism in the country. However, fewer than 750,000 tourists enter the country annually.
Tourism has been promoted by advocacy groups as a method of providing economic benefit to Myanmar civilians, and to avoid isolating the country from the rest of the world.
