Myanmar Travel Stories. Visit to a Karen farmland.

Dec 11, 2015

After lunch, a 30-minute drive to a Karen farmland. Deep inside. The car could not move further at a bridge and so we had to take motor-bikes.
1. Toll, 1000 kyats. Silver collection bowl. Receipt given. Saw a big fat black sow tethered.
2. Motorbike escorts.
3. 3 road blocks. Lifted them up and proceeded.
4. Suddenly a pretty church building appeared.  I could not see any pagodas in the farmland area. Majority of religious buildings in Myanmar are pagodas and temples.

5. Motorbike used as 3rd road block ended at a very narrow bridge.
6. Red farm house on stilts.
7. Nervous 2-year-old bullock saw me. He could be a pet. Bullock cart under the red house.
8. Few geese, hens and chicks, ducks, hay and rice grains being dried. No black pig. Banana trees, melon fruits and betel leaf type plant on sticks grown separately.
9.Stray dogs. 
10. Visited new govt school. Took some pics of group of school administrators and villagers.
