Burmese Days: Myanmar Glows White Hot
Monday, November 19, 2012 at 1:06PM With President Obama visiting Myannmar as part of his Southeast Asian tour this week (stops includes Thailand and Cambodia) the country's tourism industry is set to glow white-hot.
After an already booming year marked with scarce hotel rooms, full flights and travelers pouring in before the Starbucks crowd shows up, its no wonder this magical nation is set to vault into the stratosphere: it is as ethnically diverse as it is geographically stunning, a country that stretches from the hills of southern China all the way down to the Andaman Sea off Thailand's coast. A distinctly spicy cuisine, vistas straight out of a tourist ministers dream and a deep Buddhist soul, Myanmar is going to take off into 2013 and beyond.
Burmese Days indeed.
