This book is a guide to walking the downtown streets of Yangon. Here are the stories of the streets and the people that live in them. This book is also about the love of walking, of discovering the rhythms, streetscapes, and hidden treasures of individual streets.

Yangon is a tough city, full of hardworking, pragmatic, and generous people. It is a city of street vendors, fortune-tellers, colonial buildings, book stalls, mosques, temples, modern shops, street markets, endless teashops, beer stations, and a thousand eating places. This book is meant to be a reflection of Yangon’s deep cultural, political, and personal diversity.

Every street holds its own unique character. Behind every door and inside every shop is a person whose story is a joy to listen to. Please dive into the hustle and bustle of downtown Yangon and share this journey.
