Long Neck Tribe in Myanmar
Home Travel Blog Long Neck Tribe in Myanmar
Today, I would like to tell you all the story of the long neck Padaung women in Myanmar. For those who have traveled to Inle and witness these women, this story is not very weird and strange. Once you take Myanmar tours to Inle Lake, you will have your own chance to meet them and ask them about their special custom with
the weird long necks. Myanmar is a multi-tribe country with 135 ethnic tribes sharing the same territory. Coming to Myanmar
, you should once experience the local ethnic life of Kayan or Padaung long neck tribes, the oldest tribe in Myanmar. They not only live in harmony with nature but also keep many unique customs until today including wearing many necklaces to have a longer neck.
