Pakistan Karakoram Highway Expedition
Pakistan
The resort, built on stilts above the lake, offers 46 wooden chalets in simplistic design but with modern comfort amid the beautiful surroundings of endless green rice paddy fields, blue mountain ranges and the Inle Lake. The spacious wooden chalets are built by local craftsmen using native wood and bamboo decorated with Burmese silk textiles. Some chalets have an outdoor stone bath and 'Lake-view' rooms have a nice veranda where you can sit and enjoy the views. The binoculars and bird-book in the room were a nice touch.
The Inle Princess Resort’s restaurant is run by a French chef who churns out variety of International, Myanmar and Chinese dishes. There is also a full-service spa with a meditation area and offers yoga and meditation classes. An artisan village has been created on the property, to share ancestral traditions for Shan pottery, silk weaving, lacquerware, carving or Shan paper making.
In the day, we explore the Inle Lake and as the mist begins to lift, the lake reveals its surprises. There are rows and rows of floating vegetable gardens. The local Intha people have ingeniously found a way to first harvest the weeds and then turn them into beds which are anchored by bamboo poles. Various crops can then be planted on these beds.
