Myanmar: Major Travel Destinations And Guide

Myanmar, formerly known as Burma, is a land of faith, traditional
practices and centuries-old stupas. The republic in South-East Asia is
bounded by India, China, Bangladesh, Laos and Cambodia and covers an
area of 676,578 square kilometers. Myanmar has a recorded population
of 51 million (as of 2014).Despite lying at the crossroads of 2 of the
world's greatest civilizations, India and China, Myanmar's culture
isn't directly influenced much by either of them and is a pleasant
orchestration of both, weaved into Myanmar's native
characteristics.Known for their hospitality and benevolence, the folks
and the life in Myanmar are largely influenced by Buddhism, and have
been content and enthusiastic even in the face of many adversities.How
to prepare for a trip to Myanmar?1. Visa: Anyone with a passport from
Cambodia, Laos, Philippines, Brunei and Vietnam can enter the country
for at most 14 days. If that's not the case, you need to apply for a

at airports, hotels, Forex and banks. Also, foreign currencies above 2000
USD must be declared to the customs at the airport in place of which the
government issues Foreign Exchange Certificates, which are accepted by
restaurants, travel agents, taxis, hotels, airlines, etc.3. Vaccinations:

arriving at the country to get vaccinated for chickenpox,
measles-mumps-rubella, tetanus-diphtheria-pertussis, flu and typhoid.4.
