There are very few international flights to Myanmar. Bangkok, Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur are the best connection from around the world to get into Myanmaryou\u2019re your tour begins in China, you can catch a weekly flight from Kunming to Yangon, whose international airport is the main entry of the country, while a Thursday flight from Chiang Mai to Mandalay is an exception.<\/p>\n
By Land<\/strong><\/p>\n There are three Thai and Myanmar border crossing for visitors to reach Myanmar: Mai Sai, Mai Sot, and Ranong. It\u2019s possible to get a visa-free entry, but extra paperwork and an entry fee around 10 dollars are needed.<\/p>\n By Flight<\/strong><\/p>\n Since the road of Myanmar is in poor condition, flying is the most comfortable choice for travelers. When booking domestic air travel, be patient to the time it needs to take and confirm your flight 24 hours ahead.<\/p>\n By Train<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s always not suggested take train to travel in Myanmar for the frequent delays, slow speed, poor service and terrible sanitary condition of the toilets. Oftentimes foreign visitors are even overcharged.<\/p>\n By Car<\/strong><\/p>\n A hired private van is your best transportation when you want to tour independently. Consider using the\u00a0professional driving team<\/a>\u00a0at Indochina Odyssey Tours, which hires only licensed drivers who are all expected to be well dressed and non-smoking. Your vehicle in each destination is air conditioned, insured, clean, and regularly maintained.<\/p>\n By Pickup Truck<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s the Myanmar-style tuk-tuk that is usually converted into a canvas with benches on the rear. Since taxi could be expensive to hail, the inexpensive fare of pickup attracts mainly the locals and monks for short distance commute. For those who go off the beaten track, pickup is a nice choice to experience the real lifestyle of Myanmar people.<\/p>\n otal:<\/em>\u00a027,000\u00a0km (16,777\u00a0mi)\u00a0paved:<\/em>\u00a03,200\u00a0km (1,988\u00a0mi)\u00a0unpaved:<\/em>\u00a023,800\u00a0km (14,789\u00a0mi) (2006)<\/p>\n The main highways are as follows:<\/p>\n 1<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Yangon<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Mandalay<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Bago<\/a>,\u00a0Taungoo<\/a>,\u00a0Pyinmana<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Meiktila<\/a>.<\/p>\n 2<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Yangon<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Mandalay<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Pyay<\/a>,\u00a0Magwe<\/a>,\u00a0Kyaukpadaung<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Myingyan<\/a>.<\/p>\n 3<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Mandalay<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Muse<\/a>, on the border with\u00a0China<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Lashio<\/a>.<\/p>\n 4<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Meiktila<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Tachileik<\/a>, on the border with\u00a0Thailand<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Taunggyi<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Kengtung<\/a>.<\/p>\n 5<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Taungoo<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Hopong<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Loikaw<\/a>.<\/p>\n 6<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Yangon<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Pathein<\/a>.<\/p>\n 7<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Mandalay<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Moreh<\/a>, on the border with\u00a0India<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Shwebo<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Kale<\/a>.<\/p>\n 8<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Hpagyargyi<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Myeik<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Moulmein<\/a>,\u00a0Ye<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Dawei<\/a>.<\/p>\n 31<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Runs from\u00a0Mandalay<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0Myitkyina<\/a>, passing through\u00a0Mogok<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Bhamo<\/a>.<\/p>\n There is one expressway in the country, which features double carriageway and four lanes on its entire length:<\/p>\n The other Highways are as follows:<\/p>\n In 2017, Yangon launched a bus network system that would reduce traffic and commute time of some two million commuters in the city.<\/p>\n Rail transport in Myanmar<\/strong>\u00a0consists of a 10,296.01\u00a0km (6,398\u00a0mi) railway network with 1225 stations.. The network, generally spanning north to south with branch lines to the east and west, is the second largest in Southeast Asia,\u00a0and includes the\u00a0Yangon Circular Railway<\/a>\u00a0which serves as a commuter railway for Yangon, the principal commercial city in Myanmar.\u00a0The quality of the railway infrastructure is generally poor. The tracks are in poor condition, and are not passable during the monsoon season. The speed of freight trains is heavily restricted on all existing links as a consequence of poor track and bridge conditions. The maximum speed for freight trains has been quoted as 24\u00a0km\/h (15\u00a0mph), suggesting that commercial speeds on this section could be as low as 12\u201314\u00a0km\/h (7.5\u20138.7\u00a0mph).<\/p>\n The network is run by\u00a0Myanma Railways<\/strong>\u00a0; also spelled\u00a0Myanmar Railways<\/strong>; formerly\u00a0Burma Railways<\/strong>), a state-owned railway company under the\u00a0Ministry of Rail Transportation<\/a>.\u00a0In the 2013-14 fiscal year, Myanmar Railways carried about 60 million passengers (35 million in the circular railway and 25 million inter-city travelers) and 2.5 million metric tons of freight. Its rolling stock consisted of 384 locomotives, 1,600 passenger railcars, and 3,600 freight wagons.<\/p>\n The network has steadily increased in size over the last two decades, from nearly 5,500 kilometres (3,400\u00a0mi) in 1988 to 10,296.01 kilometres (6,397.64\u00a0mi) in 2010. Myanmar Railways is currently undertaking an ambitious expansion program that will add another 3,645\u00a0km (2,265\u00a0mi) to its network, making it spread in to 13,941\u00a0km (8,663\u00a0mi) including extensions to\u00a0Myeik<\/a>\u00a0in the south,\u00a0Kyaingtong<\/a>\u00a0in the east,\u00a0Sittwe<\/a>\u00a0in the west.<\/p>\n 12,800\u00a0km (7,954\u00a0mi); 3,200\u00a0km (1,988\u00a0mi) navigable by large commercial vessels.
