Making a trip to beautiful country, Myanmar, you will not miss an interesting cruise on the traditional wooden boats (Amaras I & II) of the Amara Company, called the Bhamo Cruise.
This cruise will allow you to sail along the Irrawaddy and the Chindwin River to reach the Mandalay city – economic, political and cultural center of Burma. You will have the opportunity to pass between beautiful cliffs, visit tropical forests and teak forests and explore villages by the river.
The boats are built and soberly decorated with a common area, a bar and a dining room. The Amara I has 7 cabins, the Amara II consists of 5 cabins privatized. Each cabin is equipped with personal shower room.
During the trip, you will visit many places such as Shwe Baw Kyunn Pagoda in Shwegu, the tumultuous market of the city of Katha – a city well known through the book “Days Birmans” by Georges Orwell, pottery village of Nwe Nyein . In addition, you can also walk in the village of Thabeikkyin for the discovery of life of fishermen, leave to the peaceful colonial villages, stroll and visit the mosque buildings, the church and the fire station.
During the arrival in Mandalay, the capital of Burma and the final destination of the trip too, you will be immersed in the beauty of the landscape by resting on the rattan chairs. Contemplation of magnificent landscapes, and even fortuitous meeting dolphins crossing the river are unforgettable memories in the cruise. Notably, it is really peaceful to hear the bell in the Mingun Paya pagoda and the Hsinbyume Pagoda.
So, if you have the chance to visit this beautiful country, do not forget to enjoy a trip on the Bhamo cruise.
