Inle Lake offers a taste of what Myanmar has to offer as far as nature goes. The pretty large lake is crammed between mountains and surrounded by villages.
According to legend, the Intha people came from southern Myanmar some 600 years ago, and longed for the sea they lived by so much, that they were very adept to live as close to the waters of Inle Lake as possible. While most famous for their odd-looking leg-rowing of small rowing boats, the Intha also constructed houses on stilts, and most villages around the lake are not built on the shore, but rather on the lake itself, with people moving around the canals in boats. In some villages, it is possible to walk around, and it is almost inevitable to think you are in Venice at times.
