Features of the Seasons

• Cool & Dry season runs from late October to February, and is considered as the best time for cooler weather, and sees little rain across the country. So it is also the busiest season in Myanmar.
• Hot season of March and April, the central dry plains, where Bagan and Mandalay lie, often suffers from high temperatures of over 40˚C /104˚F yet with no sign of rain.
• Rainy season sees the heavy downpours starting from May to October, often accompanied with strong winds. Transportation can be a real problem as some flights will be canceled and roads shut down.
