Footprint Myanmar (Burma) Handbook by Joshua Eliot
Written by a Southeast Asia specialist who has lived, worked and travelled extensively in the region for 15 years, this handbook on Myanmar provides both background and detailed travel information. It explains how to plan an independent trip, and where to go and where not to go. Myanmar (still known to many as Burma), is a country which defies the Asian norm. Before World War II it was possibly the richest country in Southeast Asia. Today, it is arguably the poorest. Visitors will find a country that has changed little since the end of the 40s, without the comsumerism of its neighbour Thailand. It is a country of extraordinary archaeological and historical sites, such as Pagan and Mandalay, which also has a vital local culture that is still part of daily living, not just an aspect of life that is brought out for tourists. Lightweight and portable, this handbook includes information on: where to stay and how to get around; how to get a visa; and tour operators.| SKU | Unavailable |
