Downtown Yangon is an affordable area to stay with plenty of choice. The area is very interesting for a wander and accidentally discover markets and little industries almost on every road. The buildings are a mix of colonial styles which are looking very worn and tired but in a shabby chic kind of a way. There are a plethora of colours some faded some bright all producing a cacophony of colour and style creating great interest for the eyes!<\/p>\n

Up one side street there was a fantastic market with plenty of very fresh fruit and veg and amazing sea food most of which looked like it had literally been caught an hour or so before. It was a shame I had no where to cook It would have been fantastic to rustle up something with those ingredients!<\/p>\n

Further on down the same street there was a hive of activity making rice pancakes. Fascinating to watch how quickly they are created and how many clearly a staple diet in Yangon.<\/p>\n

Another time I want to be like one of those TV chiefs who buys fresh produce from the market and suddenly produces a table laden with everything they need to cook up a feast and share it with the locals around…..maybe in another life!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
