Day 1:Indein, Inle Lake
Indein
is a small village West of Inle Lake which is renowned for the floating
market and impressive ancient stupas with Banyan trees growing out of them.
From Inle Lake, by just a scenic 8-kilometer boat ride through a long narrow
canal, you soon reach the lively floating ‘5-day market’ rotated every five
days around five different villages in Inle. This is a beautiful opportunity
to experience the diversity of Inle ethnic, witness their day-to-day life and
make their unique fair on the water trading all local products. A drop-in
visit to local workshops will excite your curiosity about lotus weaving,
cheroot cigarettes making in various size and flavours and diligent hand
crafted silver work. Lastly, don’t forget to discover old ruined pagodas dated
back to the 13th century and admire their incredible beauty even in
bad condition. The impressive image of stupas after stupas decaying due to
constant exposure to humidity still pose irresistible charm will leave you
with nothing but thrills.
