Would April be a good time to go to Myanar

Hi there,

I am traveling through South East Asia and I was thinking about going to Myanmar for April. Would that be a good time?

I need to be in Kuala for May 15th and was planning to go to Laos until Mid April or so

I am traveling on my own and on a budget

Would April be a good time to go to Myanar

Hi there

April%26#39;s a great time to travel here, it%26#39;s very hot here in April but don%26#39;t let that put you off. If you%26#39;re on a budget, Burma is an exellent place to travel, it%26#39;s probably the cheapest place in SE Asia. Buses, boats are very cheap %26amp; accommodation can be had for around $5 a night. Food is very cheap, you can eat on the street but the tea shops %26amp; local restaurants only charge around 2000kyat for a plate of food.

Beer is only 500kyat a glass from the beer stations.

(1000kyat = $1)

If you plan to be here on or around the 13th April you%26#39;ll be joining in the Burmese new year festivities, Thingyan water festival. The streets of Yangon are full of floats %26amp; open back pick-up trucks hosing people down, a great experience. If you plan to travel at this time though you%26#39;ll have alot of difficulty. Most things shut down %26amp; travel is not really advised. The festival lasts 4days, 13-16April.

You%26#39;ll have an amazing time!

Enjoy

BZR is modest about his country%26#39;s new year (Thingyan) festivities. If you are fairly young and energetic and like to have lots of wet fun, it is a blast. Of course if you want to JUST do sightseeing, this is likely not the best time to visit.

Everywhere in SEA is hot in April, and Myanmar is definitely NOT the exception, as April is the hottest month.
