Few lines about architecture in Burma

Most houses in Burma are built using bamboo. Walking down the streets we could see how people are braiding the walls and preparing bamboo slices. Really amazing yet so simple. No manufacturing just hammer and the saw.

New buildings in the capital are inspired by Japanese architecture. Minimalistic and beautiful.



In Yangoon there is a lot of colonial villas. Looking at them made us feel as if people walked out, closed the door and nobody entered the space ever since.
