What is the best season to travel to Myanmar?

Most of Myanmar is located in the south of the Tropic of Cancer. Except for a few high mountain alkali, a year can be divided into three seasons: cool, dry and rainy. Most areas are hot all year round and belong to tropical monsoon climate. The whole year is divided into three seasons: cool, hot and rainy. The annual average temperature is 2 ~ 25 C.

(1) cool season: October to February of the following year is the cool season, when the weather is clear and sunny, which is the season of bumper harvest in Myanmar, and it is also the tourist season. Generally speaking, the monthly average temperature in the south of Yangon is around 3 degrees Celsius, while the rest areas are between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius.

(2) Dry season: March to May is the hottest season in Myanmar every year, with a monthly average of more than 3 degrees, and it can be as high as 4 degrees. In this dry season, it is also a season of seclusion, and most Myanmar festivals are related to rain, such as the Water Splashing Festival (New Year) in mid-April and the Rain Prayer Festival in mid-May.

(3) rainy season: the southwest monsoon is frequently blown into the rainy season after mid-June every year, especially in July and August, when everything is thriving, but the people of Myanmar begin to "observe the summer" on a certain day in August, which is a festival to ban happiness.
