The Mon are an ethnic group from Myanmar living mostly in Mon State, the Bagan Region and the Irrawaddy Delta and along the southern border of Thailand and Burma. One of the earliest peoples to reside in Southeast Asia, the Mon were responsible for the spread of Theravada Buddhism in Indochina. The Mon were a major source of influence on the culture of Burma. They speak the Mon Language and Burmese Language. Mawlamyine is the capital city of Mon State and it’s such a great combination of beauty and melancholy. Mawlamyine (Moulmein) is the capital city under British rule and the port was very busy then. Things to do in Mawalmyine are walking among colonial buildings, Mosque and Churches, market visit, Than Lwin River Cruise from Hpa-An, walking at Strand Road and night market visit, Bilu Islands visit by boat and car, and the stunning sunset view from at Kyaik Thanlan Pagoda. We can also extend Mon State trip to the Thanbyuzayat town, visit to the Death Railway Museum, Thanbyuzayat Allied War Cemetery, explore Mon villages, gigantic Buddha Images, trekking through the WW2 battle fields, natural hot spring and Setse Beach. This is going to be the perfect trip to the Mon State. Golden Rock is on our way to Mon State, you may consult with us to go or not to.
