Introduction
Shan State is one of the most famous and beautiful regions in Burma. While it’s southern part is famous mostly for Inle Lake and often crowded with tourists, Northern Shan State remains relative-ly unexplored. The highlights of this trip include visits to Maymyo - old colonial British hill station, Hsipaw, which tries to position itself as the new trekking capital of Burma and a train ride over sce-nic Goteik Viaduct.
