KAYAH
KAYAH
Despite being the smallest state in Myanmar, Kayah is mighty in size
when it comes to diversity and amazing travel experience. Closed from
visitors for nearly 50 years, the state’s reopening has allowed it to
flourish as a hidden gem of Myanmar that shines with authenticity. Kayah
is home to nine different ethnic groups, giving ample opportunities
for tourists to discover the cultures and heritages. The most
distinctive tribes are Kayah and Kayan. The Kayah people are known to
dress in bright and red-coloured attire while the Kayans are easily
recognized from the brass rings they wear on their neck. The humble town
provides warm local hospitality and memorable hands-on experiences with
the tribes through the Community-Based Tourism initiatives.Locals are
more than happy to share their expertise and knowledge in various skills
with tourists.
