Myanmar Trekkers Enjoying Yangon

IMG guide Jenni Fogle reports that our first IMG Myanmar Trek is off to a good start.  Everyone made it to Yangon, Myanmar  (previously known as Rangoon, Burma) with all their luggage, and has settled in to their rooms at the Traders Hotel in the bustling downtown area.   Jenni reports  “After breakfast this morning we headed to Shwedagon Pagoda, one of the largest Buddhist temples in Myanmar. We also saw the famous reclining Buddha statue, took a break for some wonderful traditional Myanmar food, and did a little shopping at a local market. We’re resting and packing this afternoon, then getting up early tomorrow morning to fly to Bagan.”
