Next week I'm off to China to travel around for close to 3 months, then I have a stopover in Bangkok for two weeks. I was recently in BKK so I don't need to spend too much time there. My plan is to head off to either Myanmar or Laos. Given the time of year (rainy-ish) where would you go? Yangon seems VERY rainy (about 19 inches for the month of June) although the Bagan, Mandalay area seem to be on par with Vientienne and Luang Prabang (about 5-8inches). Has anyone been to both that could tell me some of their experiences? Please no political commentary, thanks!
