About Myanmar Myanmar has a rich and glorious heritage spanning more than 2000 years. Spectacular monuments and ancient cities attest to a vibrant culture. The country's primary cultural hub, Mandalay, evokes images of a romantic bygone era. With traditions deeply rooted in the loving kindness philosophy of Buddhism, the creed the Myanmar live by is heart-felt goodwill to friends and strangers alike. For many years, Myanmar disappeared behind a wall of self-isolation, and only recently did they once again open her doors to the outside word, revealing the country's culture and ecology almost untouched and unspoiled. With a diversity of terrain, Myanmar has something to offer at all times of the year.
