Any trip to Myanmar will most certainly involve a
stopover in the capital, Yangon. Orient-Express
have the ideal base from which to discover the
wealth of religious sites that fan out from the
mighty gold-spired Shwedagon.
The Governor’s
Residence
is a romantic, colonial-style mansion
dating from the 1920's set in lush gardens dotted
with lily ponds.
Myanmar is a country of extraordinary sights
populated by a gentle people who have endured
much under the recent military regime, and yet
one of the enduring images of daily life is that of
a land of smiles. As the tide of democracy flows

the most enticing travel experiences.
