Captivated by colorful arts in Shan state
Welcome to the largest state of Myanmar - Shan State, which is named after the majority ethnic group of Shan people. For first -time visitors, don’t miss the chance to check out a local workhop in Pindaya where skillful locals made many things by hand, including the glorious Burmese parasol (a traditional umbrella made from bamboo and Shan paper). You can get close, chat and learn the manufaturing process that locals put all their hearts and souls into, and get some impressive ones back home as your Myanmar vacation memory. Continuing the trip, we will visit Shwe Yan Pyay Monastery - an old architecture made entirely from wood highlighted by unique oval-shape windows. When all the wood and the sunlight sneaking through the gaps blend into one scene, it is time to turn on camera and snap the best photo of the day.
