INLE LAKE

Myanmar’s Floating Treasure

Life on the Lake

Inle Lake is  the cool highlands of Shan State, Inle Lake is a world unlike any other — a serene expanse of water dotted with stilt villages, floating gardens, and graceful fishermen balancing on one leg as they cast their nets.The Intha people, who call Inle Lake home, have adapted to life on water for centuries. From homes perched on wooden stilts to entire gardens floating on the lake’s surface, their way of life is as fascinating as it is sustainable.

Nature’s Serenity, Culture’s Heartbeat

Exploring Inle means drifting by boat through water channels framed with mountains, visiting vibrant floating markets, and witnessing centuries-old crafts like silk weaving, silverwork, and lotus stem weaving. Every corner of the lake reflects a harmony between nature and culture.
