The final week of my Burmese adventure was spent in this little visited region in the South East of Myanmar, not far from the Thai border. This was a bucolic landscape of Karst hills, cave temples and misty mornings, and probably the most productive phase of the Myanmar trip, photographically speaking. Hope you enjoy the images, let me know which was your favourite in the comments below…

I like all of them. It’s really hard to pick a favourite, but since you ask, possibly the first and second. It’s hard because they are different subjects of course. M
