Spanky – yes, parts of Bangkok especially can be so crowded – in particular at the more popular temples. At least in Bangkok there are hundreds of amazing smaller temples tourists have not yet discovered!

John – yes Myanmar will certainly give you a chance of pace from Florida!

Kimberly – it is extremely safe to visit these parts of Myanmar. My good friend has been numerous times on her own. At least a few days in Bagan is needed and if you make the trip, definitely spend at least a few days in Inle, perhaps a week is better 🙂

Hi, I’m considering a solo trip here and have been in love with temple ruins since visiting Cambodia. How safe is it to travel as a female? Any thoughts or advice on this? I’m looking to do this in November, would it be a good time to go? Is a few days in Bagan long enough? Inle Lake looks interesting too. It all looks amazing!

The images are beautiful and it seems that the places you visited don’t look overrun by tourists.On our last visit to Thailand most of the temples were jam packed with tourists and it made it a bit difficult to relax and enjoy then. Hmm I’d not be too keen on having a monkey jump on me for food so I’d keep my eyes wide shut :). Burma is not our list but you have made me a bit curious about it.

Nice read about Bagan Dave, I was there last year, fell in love with it, I ended up staying two extra days just to visit more temples.

We ended up staying near old bagan last year – I’m already plotting my return trip to Myanamar.

Dave, Bagan is temple mania! I was astounded by the number, variety and styles (and ages) of the temples. It’s almost hallucinatory. I didn’t make it up to Mt. Popa though—maybe next time.
