Burma, or Myanmar, the multi-ethnic state in Southeast Asia, offers an incomparable variety of landscapes: dream beaches on the coasts of the Indian Ocean and Andaman Sea, swamps and high peaks in the Rakhaing-Yoma mountains or Kachin mountain range, a foothill of the Himalayas. The visitor is fascinated by numerous testimonies of its eventful history: the Shwedagon Pagoda is completely covered in gold, and in the old capital Bagan, there are more than 2000 sacred buildings from four centuries. 230 photos show Burma in all its facets, and four specials report, among other things, on handicrafts and culinary delights.
