Getting there Fly to either Lashio and drive to Hsipaw (2.5 hours) or combine with Pyin Oo Lwin on the train (5 hours) or drive to Mandalay in one go which also takes 5 hours.
When to go The best time to visit Burma is during the dry season from November to April. At this time the warm and sunny days are ideal for sightseeing throughout the country. The temperatures start to rise in March, and May to September is best avoided as this is the rainy season when sightseeing can become difficult.
