Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Lac Inlé - Myanmar

Around Inle Lake there are two vineyards. If the Red Mountain Estate is the closest, it is not necessarily the best production. Nevertheless, the location remains surprising, nestled on the heights of Inle Lake and taking advantage of the microclimate of the valley. Creating wine in a tropical country has not been easy! A bet largely won thanks to a passionate team and the help of French specialists. After a visit of the estate, you will be able to treat yourself to a wine tasting while enjoying the superb sunset view over the lake and the valley.

Once off the boat In Dein reserves one of the most beautiful surprises of the lake. You have to take the long and wide covered stairs for almost a kilometre, bordered by a small market of local stalls. It crosses the swampy countryside to reach King Alaungsithu's zedi. At the end, the Shwe Inn Tain pagoda is enthroned. Very pretty, but it is not the one we come to see here. At the back, we must find the exit to stay stuck in front of the landscape. A forest of stupas that rushes by hundreds of all colors in the heart of the bamboo grove.

A lot of handicraft workshops populate the lake. During a pirogue excursion, your pilot will stop you wherever he wants. So don't hesitate to choose your itinerary according to your points of interest first with the hotel so that the message is transmitted to him because he doesn't necessarily speak English. Blacksmiths, goldsmiths, weavers, cheeroots factories, these cigars rolled by hand, the choice is vast. The most interesting according to us: the floating gardens, the cigarette factory, and the lotus factory. And if you like Burmese cats, the Inle Heritage!
