Introducing Southeastern Myanmar
Teetering on the brink, the Golden Rock of Kyaiktiyo draws a few visitors off the main trail, but there is more to the southeast than this sacred and surreal stone. Mawlamyine offers glimpses of old Burma and is the launching pad for the beautiful boat ride upriver to Hpa-an. Some travellers enter Myanmar from Ranong, Thailand, to Kawthoung and the nearby Myeik Archipelago, a flight or boat ride from the rest of Myanmar.
