A Fresh Perspective on Travel Every Day
The primary motivation for visiting Kalaw in Myanmar is to reach the elegant Inle Lake. Undertaking a journey to Kalaw provides the opportunity to trek to the lake, or vice versa, as this region boasts some of the most picturesque landscapes in all of Myanmar.
The picturesque Inle Lake is a prominent tourist destination in Myanmar, surrounded by the town of Nyaung Shwe, which serves as the primary gateway to the lake. The area not only boasts the beauty of Inle Lake but also features captivating pagodas, temples, and monasteries in Nyaung Shwe itself.
In the unique watery world of Inle Lake, Intha fishermen row canoes with one leg, gardens float, and wooden homes perch above the water on rickety stilts. Take some time to explore one of Myanmar’s most iconic destinations with an early-morning cruise, a cycle through the countryside, or sojourns into the surrounding hills and villages.
