  • Starting our transit through Singapore attemping the torture feet massages of the Airport.
    Straight into Mandalay watching the Beatle nut chewing, red mouthed drivers spitting their red gunk out the window. We were greeted happily at the Victory Point Hotel hotelvictorypoint.com
    I decided to eat with the locals, trying the crispy crickets and throwing down some lager. Bloody good drop actually
    All the woman and many one the man wear a makeup which is wood bark rubbed onto a stone with a little splash of water to make a light paste. We certainly never saw anyone with shorts above the knee, nearly every man wears the traditional dress called a Longyi. Different to a Longneck beer, don't get confused.
    Myanmar is very raw and untouched. It has only been open to tourists for 8 years. There is no fast food franchise just street food. We ate dinner every night in Mandalay at a place called Shan Ma Ma, very well known by the locals and the tourists, highly recommended.
    All the older people still call themselves Burmese and are very religious. They will visit a pagoda multiple times a week to worship the Buda, usually taking the whole family.

    As a Burmese living in Mandalay, it is way too funny to watch a Mandalay travel video with chinese background music . Because nearly 20% of Mandalay population are chinese and almost every chinese in Mandalay are richer than average Burmese and live in downtown area, and Mandalay is known as Chinese town in the country and people make fun of it but local Mandalay citizens do not like it at all.

      Thank you for your comment. I honestly didn't hear any music in Myanmar at all. If you know of any traditional music I will use it in my next video of Bagan and Mt Popa

      @alastairraquelaroundthewor1417  5 років тому +2

      The first hotel is Hotel Victory Point in Mandalay, the second is Serenity on Inle Lake. Links should be in the description. possibly the Serenity link through booking.com is in the Bagan video.

      The restaurant/bar I went to and ate the crickets is on 81st street near Pinya Street. it could be called NCU or Dagon Station? Looking at the map!
