The Geography of Myanmar

We know Myanmar for its amazing ethnic plurality, its flamboyant pagodas and the friendliness of its people. But did you know that the geography of Myanmar offers the country exceptional environmental diversity as well?

Bounded by the border of India to the west of the country, Thailand to the east and China to the north, Myanmar is the largest country in mainland Southeast Asia and enjoys a positioning which allows it to benefit from numerous microclimates unique in this country with a thousand facets..

 

Fun facts on the geography of Myanmar:

  • The majestic Mount Hkakabo Razi, which heralds the Himalayan range in the north of the country, rises to more than 5,500 metres above sea level, making it the highest point in all of Southeast Asia. Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia reaches only 4,095 metres above sea level.

  • The country boasts more than 2,000 km of coastline along the Andaman sea and Bay of Bengal - much of it long stretches of unspoilt and undiscovered beaches. Most of the coastline faces west, guaranteeing beautiful sunsets into the horizon.

  • There are more than 800 islands in the Mergui Archipelago in the south of the country. Varying from a few dozen to several hundred square kilometers these islands are a refuge for many natural species and remain one of the last virgin strongholds of all human activity.

  • The geography of Myanmar is categorized by a number of different reliefs throughout the nation: the center of the country including the Shan state, the Mandalay region and that of Bagan is particularly hilly, while the regions of the North East and West of the country are mountainous. The South-East and the South-West of the country are mainly bordered by paradisiac beaches little known to tourists.
