Inle Lake
Leaving Inle. Leaving the lake and its shitty tourist tours. Locals like lights-camera-action, put on their showing of tired attraction. Sleepy spectators click cameras and grin, sleepy again when they sneak past the giftshop.
Inle Lake
It’s the iconic Myanmar shot: Inle Lake fisherman tiptoeing on the edge of their boat. We’ve all seen it. The round hat, traditional clothing and deadly concentration, all of it dangling delicately over the lake below. It’s true that Inle Lake is the most touristy destination in Myanmar and perhaps the most developed. But don’t let this put you off. ‘Touristy’ in Myanmar isn’t quite the same as in other South East Asian countries, and there’s still plenty to see around Inle Lake.
