Trekking
One of the most beautiful places for treks is in Namhsan. First of all, it isn’t that easy to get here so there are very few footsteps that you’ll be following in unless it is the footsteps of the flipflops of the locals that use that particular path. The mountains around Namhsan can measure up to 2000 meters. And the area is dotted with Shan and Shwe (golden) Palaung villages. We went with Tun Tun our guide with whom we arranged to go to Namhsan. He took us to his village where we spend our first night. The second night we were back in Nahmsan since we had to get back unfortunately. Besides, you have to stay at least one night in Namhsan apparently because of government rules. Anyways, the stay with his family was absolutely fantastic. They were the friendliest people I’ve met in Burma. And during the day, Tun Tun showed us the tea, the tea factories and so on. Then of course the hike...
