Myanmar has 4,463 kilometers of railways, 38,000 kilometers of highways and inland waterways 102, 7 1 km. Irrawaddy River is the main shipping line. Yangon, Mahlman and Bosheng are major seaports. In aviation, there are 22 civil aircraft, 45 domestic routes of civil airports, with a total length of 4,500 kilometers and 4,000 international routes.

The train route in Yangon is a ring around Yangon, from Yangon to Yongsheng, Mingalaton, North Okalapu, and finally back to downtown Yangon. It takes about 3 hours to complete the detour of the whole train route. The ticket is only 15 kyats, and the train runs every half hour from 6 am to 8 pm.

In addition, from Yangon to other parts of Myanmar, most of the railway lines are operated by the state-owned Myanmar Railway Bureau, and another private railway company, Dagon Mann, operates the line from Yangon Station to Wacheng along Yangon (starting from Yangon Station at 0/5: 30 on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday and arriving at Wacheng at 5: 40 the next morning). ) The private Dagerman is basically designed to cater to the local people in Myanmar, because the train speed in Dagerman is not faster than the state-run train, but the price is very cheap. The average seat is only US$ 65,438 +0 and 2 yuan RMB, but for foreign tourists, Dag Man offers another better seat or carriage to choose from. The first class (1st class) costs about 30 dollars (excluding air conditioner and video recorder), the upper floor includes air conditioner, about 42 dollars, the deck chair seat of the upper floor is about 45 dollars, and there are four people, including air conditioner, bed, toilet and refrigerator, about 50 dollars (the price of two people is also the same). In addition, to take Dagongman, it is best to book tickets one month before departure. (Dagongman Railway Company Tel: 0 1-249024)
