The mountains In the far north, we find a mountainous area, which is an offshoot of the Himalayas, where there are perennial snows above 4, meters 15, ft.
The highest mountain is Hkakabo Razi, 5, meters 19, feet high. On the southern side, at the foot of the mountains, the rains are abundant, in fact, they exceed 3, millimeters inches per year. However, there are heavy rainfalls from May to October, while the rest of the year is dry. More to the south, to the west and the east of the plain, we find two mountain ranges the Arakan Mountains and the Shan Plateau , which have a mild climate.
In the monsoon season, the rains are abundant in the western range, at times torrential, while they are moderate in the eastern range, around 1, mm 60 in per year. In winter, nights are cold. Taunggyi Here are the average temperatures of Taunggyi, located in the eastern range, at 1, meters 4, feet above sea level. In September and October, the rain is less intense and you will experience more sunshine. The most comfortable time to visit is during the cool season , which is also the least humid time of year and has the clearest air — however, this is also the peak tourist season.
From February until the beginning of the rainy season, much of the country particularly north of Yangon can be dusty and hazy , sometimes hindering long-distance views.
Myanmar is a large country and temperatures can vary significantly. As a general rule, temperatures and humidity become lower at higher altitudes; in Chin State in the west and parts of Shan State in the east, temperatures can get close to freezing, and in the Himalayan far north they may drop below zero.
Monsoon rains are the most persistent in Yangon and the south and west; in the centre of the country, around Mandalay and Bagan , showers will generally be more sporadic in the rainy season and you are likely to experience more sunshine. Below is a table showing average temperatures, humidity and sunlight hours for Yangon. In the interior temperatures are high under cloudless skies, but not as high as they will be in the months to come.

When is the best time to go to Myanmar? What to pack for a holiday in Myanmar Keep the suitcase light, and pack lightweight clothing of material that dries quickly. Note: February is probably the best month for a holiday in Myanmar, with rain being almost non-existent and warm to hot sunny weather pervading the whole country, from the highlands to the coast. It is bounded by China, Laos and Thailand in the east, by Bangladesh and India in the north and by the Indian Ocean in the west and south.
The Irrawaddy River runs through the centre of the country and fans out to form a delta on the south coast; Yangon stands beside one of its many mouths. North of the delta lies the Irrawaddy basin and the arid plains of central Myanmar, which are protected by a horseshoe of mountains rising to over 3,m 10,ft. To the west are the Arakan mountains and the Chin, Naga and Patkai Hills; the Kachin Hills are to the north; to the east lies the Shan Plateau, which extends to the Tenasserim coastal ranges.
Intensive irrigated farming is practised throughout central Myanmar, and fruit, vegetables and citrus crops thrive on the Shan Plateau. Much of the land and mountains are covered by subtropical forest, although this coverage has been reduced by extensive logging particularly for teak.
