Practical information : Treat yourself (& others) Myanmar - Burma

Timetable

Burma is not exactly a shopping destination. However, Yangon is still a big city and has a satisfactory arsenal of shops of all styles. If you are looking for international brands, they are in Yangon's shopping malls such as Junction City, Myanmar Plaza Shopping Centre or Taw Win Centre, which are usually open from 9am to 9pm. As for handicrafts, you will find a bit of everything in Yangon, especially at the Bogyoke market open from 9am to 5.30pm from Tuesday to Sunday. Pretty little shops are starting to bloom in downtown Yangon, generally open from 9:30am to 5:30pm, where local clothing and decorative crafts are revisited in a more modern way

Budget & Tips

The items you will find at the Bogyoke market are also available in their regions of origin, often at lower prices.

What's very local

During your trip, don't hesitate to visit the workshops where lacquerware is made, enter the small jewellery shops where rubies shine, the antique shops which are full of treasures. It's a good idea to haggle a little, but it's still important to recognize the value of craftsmanship

Tourist traps

At Inle Lake, you can visit the cigar and cigarette factories, an interesting visit. However, even if it can be the occasion of a nice gift, in a nice lacquer box, know that the classic local cigarettes are sold at a lower price at the market
