DISCOVERING THE WETLANDS
Moeyungyi Wetlands
About 70 miles north of Yangon lies Moeyungyi Wetlands, a
vital shelter for both resident and migratory waterfowl. A
census at Moeyungyi revealed that there are 125 species of
waterbirds including 70 species of migrants. It is about three
and a half hour drive from Yangon. Moeyungyi Wetlands Resort
Hotel is situated at the edge of Moeyungyi Wildlife Sanctuary.
It is perfectly convenient place to make an overnight stop on
bird watching trip either on the way to Kyaiktiyo (Golden Rock)
Pagoda or on return journey.
The Wetlands is best visited in the winter season from
November through March. In addition to bird watching, you can
observe the fauna and flora of the wetlands. Travellers can
witness the typical Myanmar countryside life at nearby villages
- fishing and duck breeding at Pyun Chaung village; rice
cultivation in the paddy field (still using manual labour and
water buffalos) at Inn Daing Su Village; and hundreds of water
buffalo enjoying their bath time in the muddy waters.
