Mingalaba Yangon
Life in Yangon starts right before sunrise until just after sunset and during the night, not much happens. That is probably what I prefer about Yangon and in Myanmar in General.

After travelling in Asia for a few months, I had seen enough pagoda and temples for my entire life but by visiting Myanmar (Burma) I couldn’t avoid them. Especially while the main attraction of Yangon was Shwedagon pagoda.
The 3-hour train loop around Yangon is an exceptional and unique way to experience the city’s daily life of commuters.
Phnom Penh isn’t the usual stop in Cambodia as people preferring exploring Angkor Wat and its temples. However, I think it is worth a short stop. At least to understand the recent history of Cambodia.
2016 Yi Peng (lantern festival) in Chiang Mai was a bit different from the previous years. As the king of Thailand passed away exactly a month before the event, no one was really sure if it would happen or not.
