Introduction

Tourist numbers are rising steadily. Certain areas in Upper and Lower Myanmar are currently out of bounds owing to the past civil war – check with the Embassy or Consulate for the latest information. Tourists should also be aware that foreign nationals are liable to arrest or imprisonment if they criticise the regime in public. Most coastal resorts have now been opened to tourists and Sunday round-trip flights are arranged by Myanmar Travel and Tour to Napali and Sandoway beaches during the dry season. For the purposes of this guide, Myanmar has been divided into three sections: The South (including Yangon); Central Myanmar (including Pagan and Mandalay); The East and The Northwest.
