The main Bagan area of Myanmar (Burma) is made up of three locations these days, Old Bagan which as the largest concentration of temples but no-one lives, New Bagan which is where most of the larger and more expensive hotels are based, and where most foreigners will stay when they visit the Bagan temples, and last but not least Nyaung U village which is a small village which has cheaper places to stay and eat, and is just as close to the temples as New Bagan.
You can get around the area very easily either by renting an electric scooter, a bike or bicycle, and there are also horse and carts which will take you between the three locations.
I rented a bike on this occasion, and after spending some time exploring some of the Bagan temples I head in to the village Nyang U to find some lunch. Back out to the temples for sunset, always an amazing time to see the temples of Bagan, sunset and also sunrise. If you are here for a couple of nights then maybe go to one of the popular spots for sunset the first night, but on the second night find your own little sunset location.

Hi my name is Simon, I love to travel and I want to inspire you to leave your comfort zone behind once in a while to enjoy something different, which is why I have decided to vlog my way around the world one country at a time. I hope I inspire you to travel somewhere new yourself, or maybe revisit one of your favourite places.
As well as travel vlogs I will share with you how to get to some of the most beautiful and inspirational destinations on the earth, top travel tips and Budget Buster videos to let you know how much you should expect to pay if you want to travel to one of these destinations for yourself.
