  This guide reflects the many changes that have rocked this neighbour of Thailand and China since the publication of its first edition 14 years ago. The Union of Myanmar, the name adopted by Burma in 1989, is now in general use. Long shrouded in mystery and shielded from the far-reaching influences that have propelled Southeast Asia into the modern world, this book discloses some of the country's well-hidden secrets. Visit Myanmar Year is the theme which has been chosen to promote tourism and increase the number of visitors to Myanmar in 1996. With Photographs and essays, this guide contains up-to-date maps, and tips on travel, excursions, accommodation and restaurants. There are also comprehensive local maps and name registers.
