Family Vacations in Exotic Burma

By: Matthew J. Willis

Burma is a country that had been controversial in world media because of the political unrest and turmoil in its midst. Burma is best-known for Aung Sun Suu Kyi, the Burmese political figure who has advocated for her country's liberation. She had campaigned for Burma's democracy since 1988, and since 1989, she's been under house arrest by Burma's military Junta. All this should discourage you from taking a family vacation to Burma, right? Maybe not if you knew what wonders this country could offer you.
When the phrase "family vacations" is mentioned, Burma doesn't seem to be a consideration for this phrase. With families wanting to go on a hassle-free vacation, Burma's current political situation may not appeal to your wife.
But if you arm yourself with substantial research on Burma, as well as information on how to navigate yourself through the government authorities, a family vacation would be made possible in exotic Burma.
Burma is also ideal for families because of the natural wonders that abound in it. The Burmese wild is still home to tigers. There are also elephants, leopards, tapirs, and rhinos in Burma. Peafowl/peacocks also thrive there. If you want to give your children a multi-dimensional educational tour, you would definitely be able to give them a comprehensive learning experience in Burma: sociology and zoology in one 7-day trip.
While Burma offers the wildlife for your children to be fascinated in, if you are an amateur sociologist, it would also be fascinating for you to meet new peoples and learn the way they live. Your children would also learn a thing or two from the character traits of a people who had been hailed by many a traveler as "uncommonly hospitable."
The major downside to Burmese vacations would be the government. There are certain customs that are deemed unethical in the majority of the nations in the world, but in Burma, it seems almost necessary to commit bribery. Because of the restrictive regulations that the Burmese government imposes, a tourist there is not fully free.
If you are looking to give your children a wild vacation, a truly interesting and educational family vacation, skip Disneyland. Skip the aquariums and the dolphin pools. Live on the wild side, with crocs splashing in the wild rivers of Burma! Live on the edge, taking bus rides with your children across the landscape of a country in struggle. Teach your kids to pray as you pass by villages, and see change take effect within hours, to days to months, to years, as you and your kids pray for a nation struggling to break free!
