Inle Lake: Our Favorite Travel Experience

Inle Lake: Our Favorite Travel Experience

Inle Lake was one of the best parts of our Myanmar itinerary and gave us the chance to experience Burmese culture first-hand through activities like a Burmese cooking class and visiting active Buddhist temples during our Inle Lake boat tour. It was totally worth it to visit Inle Lake because it is easily one of the most beautiful places in Southeast Asia.
