Can friends who have been to Myanmar tell me what the real Myanmar is like?

When a friend with crotch hair wanted to strike up a conversation with a beautiful woman from a wealthy area of ??Myanmar, the tour guide on the side immediately ran forward and stopped us...

Before going to Myanmar, the insurance company There are some express provisions in Myanmar that some areas in Myanmar are not protected. My thought at the time was how dangerous this country is! To be honest, I started to regret it on the first day I arrived in Myanmar!

Our first stop was in the wealthy areas of Myanmar. I have to say that the gap between the rich and the poor is really too big. In the wealthy areas of Myanmar, the most intuitive feeling I had was that Myanmar also has places with beautiful environment and prosperous life. And I found that the girls here are as beautiful as flowers, which makes us singles just want to make a move. When my friend with his crotch hair wanted to strike up a conversation with a girl from a wealthy area of ??Myanmar, the tour guide on the side hurriedly stopped him. The tour guide told us that no one dares to marry a girl from a wealthy area in Myanmar! Don't strike up a conversation easily.

He said: The girls in the wealthy areas of Myanmar are all highly educated, they have high vision and ambition, and their families are very rich. They live like princesses and have all kinds of luxury accessories at home. The money spent on you in one day is half the income of a middle-class Chinese family, so approaching them is completely overestimating your ability, and you will be humiliated and ridiculed by the girls.

The friend looked at the money in his pocket and sighed helplessly. After going to other places, I will be confused by a phenomenon in Myanmar: Myanmar women, children, and even some young men will apply yellow powder on their faces

The tour guide told us that this kind of yellow powder It is a homemade sunscreen beauty cream made by the Burmese people. They call it "Tenaka". It is made from a tree that grows locally in Myanmar and is also part of its cultural tradition.

Curiosity drove me and my friend to apply some, and it was very cool and comfortable. Then I also discovered a strange phenomenon. Men actually wore skirts. I was shocked when I saw the men in skirts all over the street.

The tour guide saw my doubts and told me that it was because South and Southeast Asia are extremely hot all year round. In the area centered on Bangladesh, it is very popular for men to wear skirt-like clothing to dissipate heat.

After hearing this, my friend’s eyes lit up, and he pulled me to wear a skirt with me. He also said that his long-cherished wish finally came true. Looking at his awkward way of walking, I really wanted to kick him. Later, because I was going to a place quite far away for dinner, my friend suggested taking a bus. I have to say that the buses in Myanmar are comparable to those in India

Like the buses in India, there are almost no Arabic numerals. I knew which bus we were taking, but I didn’t know which bus we were taking. If it hadn’t been for a tour guide, I wouldn’t have known where we were being taken.

After getting on the bus, I felt that the bus was very worn out, very slow, and it was very hot inside. The fare was not expensive, equivalent to one yuan in RMB. The tour guide said that these buses were eliminated by other countries, no wonder I was there I saw a lot of foreign advertisements on the outside of the bus. To say that the most impressive thing in Myanmar is to encounter a traditional monk ceremony

We encountered it when we were visiting Bagan. The scene was so majestic that I can’t describe it in words. It feels like it, but just imagine the scenes of ancient emperors traveling.

The tour guide told us that Burmese men must become monks once in their lives, and it can take a week or two, a few months or a lifetime. Before the child is ten years old, parents will choose a good day in spring to hold the ceremony. This ceremony is more grand for them than any festival. Relatives and friends will all dress up to attend. There will be dancers and bands. Hundreds of people will hold tributes, sing and dance out of the village, and then come back for dinner. The scene is very lively.

I was taking pictures next to me, but my friend was unhappy. He said that he felt very complicated when he thought that he was almost 30 years old and had nothing. Then he actually proposed that he wanted to become a monk in Myanmar. If I hadn't stopped him, he would never have come back. .

The overall feeling is that although Myanmar is poor, chaotic and poor, its people are still relatively simple. Some of the traditional things of the Myanmar people also broadened our horizons. Their tourist attractions are indeed good. Myanmar has been selected as one of the most worthwhile countries to visit by travel experts around the world many times, so I do regret coming late.
