The trip to Dala is shutterbug’s delighted as it is full of scenic spots and natural beauty. There is a wide gap between Yangonian life and the life of the people at Dhala. The most outstanding thing is that these charming people extend their hospitality with enormous smiles.

Their life is lacking in many amenities however, mutual help and cooperation are concepts underlying a large number of social and religious customs prevailing in the Dala area.After visiting the village and market, proceed to the monastery to learn about monastic life in Myanmar.

The monastery serves as a community centre where the people can do good deeds, gain eternal merit and find peace of mind. Return by boat to Yangon, observing life along the river and reflecting back on your excursion to Dala. Upon returning to the Yangon jetty, you will be transferred back to your hotel.
