Thank you guys for coming. If you feel uncomfortable, I'm sorry that the military has seized the power. Please come again when the country is peaceful❤.

We love Myanmar but won't be visiting untill the military return the country back to the people.

I immigrated to America 4 years ago and although i wouldn't say I miss Burma, it's great to see you guys walking the places that I have always walked. Gives me good old nostalgic feelings. Anyway, great video guys!

thank you for visiting Myanmar. it was a peaceful country over the last 5 years during Aung San Su Gyi and her party ruled democratically. However sadly after the coup since the military took the power and thrown the elected government in Feb 1, 2021 the country has been collapsed. Thousand and thousand of people lost their lives. And of lots people have flee and left everything behind for their lives. Pray for peace in Myanmar.

You stayed at one of the best top 10 hotels in Yangon, Myanmar. The danger is mostly for journalists, and if you travel outside of the cities - there is conflict in outlying zones which are currently contested (has existing armed conflict) and if you happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. Yangon is still mostly under control of the junta, and they won't bother most tourists as long as you do touristy things. Thank you is "Jay-zoo tin bar de". The Lady is called "Aung San Suu Kyi" - "Kyi" is pronounced "Gee".

I'm really impressed by what you do. You're a true inspiration to me, and I appreciate the effort you've put into this video.

Welcome to Burma guys . And thank you for speaking out about Coup and dictatorship. One thing though, unless they specifically stated they sell vegan, mokehinkhar is usually cooked with assorted fishes. Hope you enjoyed your stay and wish to see you in a better situation.

$48 for a 60 min of massage is not a steal but it's considered a big rip-off in Myanmar. These days with the current USD->MMK exchange rate, you can typically get a 60min of massage for about $2 or $3 including tips even in the downtown area of Yangon.

Thank you so much for visiting Myanmar! Your video was very insightful and captured many aspects of Yangon beautifully. It’s great to see you enjoyed your stay at the Pan Pacific and the Lotte Hotel. They are indeed among the nicest places to stay here.

I appreciate you sharing the historical and cultural context of Myanmar, though I hope future visitors will also see the resilience and warmth of the people amidst the challenges we face. Our country has a rich and complex history, and it's important for visitors to be aware and respectful of the current situation.

I’m glad you enjoyed the local cuisine. Tea leaf salad (lahpet thoke) and mohinga are indeed some of our beloved dishes. It’s always interesting to see how foreigners perceive our food and traditions.

If you visit again, I recommend also exploring some lesser-known places like the local tea shops, hidden markets, and maybe even taking a day trip to the ancient city of Bagan to see the thousands of pagodas there.

Thank you for sharing your experience, and I hope more people get to see the beauty of Myanmar through your eyes. Safe travels!

Welcome from Yangon, Myanmar (Golden Land)

If you feel safe in Myanmar, I wanna suggest to go upper regions like Sagaing. You will face how the conflicts are horrible.
