Reasons To
Visit Burma

  • Boat trips

    The famous Irrawaddy River flows through the heart of the country for 2,000km to a vast Delta region southwest of Rangoon and provides an important role in everyday life. A journey on this most majestic of rivers is a highlight of any trip.

    Boat trips

  • Hill tribes

    Burma is home to an astonishing number of ethnicities each with their own traditional dress and customs, and in many cases, language and religion. For the most rewarding encounters we recommend heading to the hills of Shan state where it’s possible to stay in remote villages and receive the most genuine of welcomes and hospitality.

  • History

    Burma is steeped in history and the legacy of various kingdoms and rule is very much in evidence throughout the country from former ancient capitals and grandiose royal palaces around Mandalay to the faded colonial grandeur of Rangoon’s municipal buildings built by British hands.

  • Local markets

    Whether you are shopping for gems in Rangoon’s Scott Market, betel nut in Kalaw or intricate lacquerware in Pagan there is no better way to immerse yourself in the way of life than to soak up the atmosphere of a local market.

  • Temples

    Wherever you travel in Burma you will only be footsteps away from a temple providing an opportunity to witness the quiet reverence of the Burmese people. Climb up to a viewpoint amongst the ancient stupas of Pagan at sunset, visit stilted temples by boat at Inle Lake or marvel at the shimmering Shwedagon Pagoda.

Hotel@Tharabar Gate

Pagan

Situated in front of the legendary Tharabar Gate in Old Pagan, this is a well-located and attractive property.

Many temples, including the impressive Ananda, are within walking distance, as are a good range of local restaurants.

The 86 guest rooms are set in pretty gardens and are tastefully furnished with teak wood fittings whilst some have a small terraced area for relaxing.

There is also a pleasant pool with sun loungers and a restaurant where you can eat indoors or al fresco. Bicycles can be hired from the hotel should you wish to venture off in search of some of the more distant ruins.

The hotel is also situated in a prime location for January’s Ananda Pagoda Festival when local pilgrims come from the surrounding area to set up camp and celebrate. This is a colourful and interesting time to visit Pagan, and staying at this property puts you in the midst of the revellers.
