Yangon. Gateway to the Golden Land
Emerging from five decades of isolation, Myanmar’s recent bold and welcome decision to open its doors to the world heralds a new era for the country, its people, and for cultural travellers.
There can be few cities that remain as intriguing and unexplored as Yangon. Known to the British as Rangoon, the city is situated in Lower Myanmar at the convergence of the Bago and Yangon rivers, a short distance from the Gulf of Mottama.
