Get in
When it comes to visiting Mingun, you have two options. The first is to take a private boat from Mandalay Mayangyan Jetty to Mingun Village. The price of the boat ride will vary depending on the size of your group. Last year's prices ranged from 30,000 Ks for 1 to 5 people, up to 70,000 Ks for groups of 31 or more. The second option is to hire a private sedan car from Mandalay, which will cost around $30. Both options offer a convenient way to reach Mingun and explore its wonders.

Khow Suey is a hearty Burmese curry dish made with chicken, potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, chickpeas, beans, and a rich, creamy coconut-based gravy. The blend of spices used in the curry, including turmeric, cumin, and chili powder, gives it a bold, complex flavor. Khow Suey is usually served with rice or roti, making it a satisfying meal for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike. Samusa is a popular Burmese snack consisting of a savory filling wrapped in a crispy pastry shell. The fillings typically include seasoned mashed potatoes, peas, lentils, onions, or other vegetables, although some variants may also contain meat. The samusas are deep-fried until golden brown, creating a delicious, crunchy exterior that contrasts with the warm, flavorful contents inside. They are commonly sold as street food or as a appetizer at gatherings. Historical Appearance
